Artificial filaments, threads, fibres, films, foils and other articles are obtained by extruding an alkaline, zinc-containing cellulose xanthate solution, substantially free from sodium trithiocarbonate, into a coagulating bath, and then regenerating the cellulose in the formed articles. The filaments or other articles may be stretched and subjected to washing and other after-treatments and then dried. A solution of ammonium sulphate may be used for a coagulating bath in which but little regeneration to cellulose takes place, and an acid solution containing salts such as sodium sulphate, magnesium sulphate and zinc sulphate, may be used for completing the regeneration to cellulose. Alternatively, a single bath in which coagulation and regeneration take place may be used. Such a bath may comprise sulphuric acid and sodium, magnesium and zinc sulphates. If desired the coagulation may be effected in a solution of acetic or formic acid with or without an addition of a salt. Stretching of the freshly coagulated but incompletely regenerated articles may take place in a hot medium such as hot water or water vapour. In preparing the spinning solution, the xanthated alkali cellulose may be washed with a solution of an alkali metal salt, in which the cellulose xanthate does not dissolve, and the purified cellulose xanthate may be treated with a dilute zinc salt solution. After removing excess of the zinc salt solution, the cellulose xanthate is dissolved in an alkaline solution. If desired, the cellulose xanthate which has been washed with a solution of an alkali metal salt may be dissolved in a zinc-containing alkaline solution. Alternatively, a normally prepared viscose may be coagulated, with substantially no regeneration, and if desired it may be formed into filaments by extrusion; the coagulate may be washed to remove trithiocarbonate and then treated with a dilute zinc salt solution, and after removing the excess of zinc salt solution, the cellulose xanthate may be dissolved in an alkaline solution. Coagulation of the cellulose xanthate solution may be effected with solutions of ammonium sulphate, or chloride, or with bisulphite solutions, or with gaseous reagents such as sulphur dioxide, or carbon dioxide. Trithiocarbonate-free cellulose xanthate may also be obtained by dialysis of normally prepared viscose. A solution of zinc sulphate may be used for loading the purified cellulose xanthate.
