Polyesters derived from diketodiols and aromatic dicarboxylic acids and filaments thereof

摘要

High modulus filaments are melt-spun from polyesters which are derived from certain substituted aromatic diketodiols and aromatic dicarboxylic acids. The polyesters are optically anisotropic in the melt. As-spun filaments from these polyesters can be heat treated while free from tension to increase their tenacity.
