Monofilaments, fabrics thereof and related process

摘要

Polyphenylene sulfide blends with melt extrudable polymers form novel monofilaments. The monofilament is prepared by extruding a mixture of the linear polyphenylene sulfide and the melt extrudable polymer to form a monofilament blend, quenching the monofilament and thereafter drawing the monofilament to a ratio of from about 3:1 to 6:1. The resulting filament can be employed for the manufacture of fabric.
