摘要

High tenacity AN fibers, a process for production thereof, hydraulic substances reinforced with the fibers and a process for production thereof are provided.

The high tenacity AN fibers comprise AN polymers composed mainly of AN having an intrinsic viscosity of at least 2.5 and possess degree of crystalline orientation of at least 93% and a tensile strength of at least 10 g/d. The surface of the fibers is smooth.

The high tenacity AN fibers are produced by extruding an AN polymer solution having an intrinsic viscosity of at least 2.5 into air or an inert gas through a spinning nozzle, introducing into a coagulating bath, subjecting the coagulated filaments to washing with water, drawing and drying and then, drawing with dry heating at about 160 - 250° C under a drawing tension of about 0.5 g/d or more to make the total drawing magnification more than about 10 times per an initial length of the coagulated filaments.

Hydraulic substances reinforced with the high tenacity AN fiber are produced by uniformly dispersing in water the high tenacity AN fibers having applied nonionic or cationic high molecular flocculants thereto, adding anionic high molecular flocculants thereto to flocculate and adsorb cement particles onto the surface of the AN fibers and, subjecting the resulting slurry to paper-making.
