A conjugated fiber having a sheath-core conjugated structure comprising a polyester core component composed mainly of polyethylene terephthalate and a polyamide sheath component composed mainly of polyhexamethylene adipamide, is disclosed, which has excellent mechanical properties such as a high tenacity, a high modulus, and an improved dimensional stability, and an improved adhesion to a rubber, especially a high-temperature adhesion, an improved heat resistance in a rubber, and a high fatigue resistance, and thus is useful as an industrial material. By adopting a high-speed spinning procedure in the fiber preparing process, the peel resistance in the interface of the sheath-core conjugated structure is greatly improved, and the following valuable characteristics not possessed by conventional conjugated yarns can be obtained: (1) Excellent adhesion and high-temperature adhesion comparable to those of a polyamide, which cannot be obtained in a polyester. (2) High modulus and dimensional stability comparable to those of a polyester, which cannot be obtained in a polyamide. (3) A heat resistance in a rubber and a fatigue resistance superior to those of a polyester. p |
