Multischicht-Acryl-Verbundfäden und Verfahren zur Herstellung derselben.

摘要

A multi-layered conjugated acrylic fiber comprises different acrylic polymers which are conjugated along the fiber axis in layers. On the average the fiber contains more than two layers of acrylic polymers. The shrinkage forming ratio in boiling water of the conjugated acrylic fiber is 7 - 15% and the shrinkage forming stress is 5 - 20 mg/denier. To make the acrylic fiber water absorbent, one or more of the acrylic polymers may contain 0.3 to 2.0 mmole/g of carboxylic acid groups. The fibers may be made by introducing the polymers into a static mixer in such a way as to retain a number of separate layers of the polymers, and thence to a spinneret through a filter having a maximum mesh space of 10 mu m or more. After spinning out the dope, it is drawn, washed and dried. Except where water-absorbent fiber is wanted, this is followed by shrinkage forming treatment and redrawing; the water-absorbent fiber is treated with alkali solution either in the form of yarn, or a fabric made therefrom.
