Process for producing carbon fibers

摘要

A method for the continuous production of carbon fibers from two or more cheese-like articles of organic polymer fibers having yarn ends at the top portion and tail portion, characterized by preliminarily heat-treating the yarn ends of each cheese-like article, connecting the tail end of a cheese-like article with the top end of another cheese-like article in such a manner that connecting loop portions and knot portions are disposed at different positions, and thereafter causing the yarn to pass through heat-treating furnaces.
