Abstract: The present invention relates to a polyester tire cord made of polyester yarn and having a 5% LASE of 1.2 g/d or more as measured according to ASTM D885 at 80° C., a 5% LASE of 1.0 g/d or more as measured according to ASTM D885 at 120° C., and a toughness retention rate of 65% or more at 80° C. and 120° C. The tire cord of the present invention has a modulus comparable to that of rayon even in a high-temperature environment at 120° C. or higher, and has excellent dimensional stability and heat resistance, and thus it can be advantageously applied to a high-performance tire.

Abstract: A polyester tire cord having improved dimensional stability and methods of manufacturing the polyester tire cord are provided. The method includes forming a discharge yarn, extruded while a polyester containing 85 mol % or more of ethylene terephthalate units is melted and passes through a nozzle; forming an undrawn yarn by spinning the discharged yarn; manufacturing a yarn by multistep drawing the undrawn yarn; plying the yarn by twisting; and dipping the plied yard in a dipping solution, and then drying, drawing, and heat-setting the plied yarn before dipping the plied yarn in resorcinol-formaldehyde latex and again drying an heat-setting the plied yarn. An intermediate elongation of the formed polyester tire cord after vulcanization for 20 minutes at 170° C. is E2, an intermediate elongation of the polyester tire cord before vulcanization is E1, and a difference between E2 and E1 is ?E. ?E divided by E1 is 0.5 or less.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a polyester tire cord with excellent dimensional stability which utilizes a yarn manufactured by adjusting spinning and drawing conditions, and a method for manufacturing the same.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a hybrid dip cord consisting of rayon yarn and lyocell yarn to apply to the carcass ply or cap ply (belt reinforced layer) of pneumatic radial tire used in a car and a radial tire using the same. And also, according to the present invent the hybrid dip cord and the radial tire for application to the carcass ply or cap ply (belt reinforced layer) of pneumatic radial tire used in cars are produced by means of the following steps; imparting S direction twist of 20 to 200 TPM yarn number to one rayon yarn to produce a pre-yarn, imparting twist to said one rayon pre-yarn and one non-twisted lyocell respectively to produce a ply twist yarn, and imparting cable twist to two ply of ply twist yarn made from combination of said ply twist yarn or impart cable twist to a ply twist yarn to be produced by regulating low the twist number of one lyocell yarn and the rayon yarn to one lyocell as 20 to 200 TPM when the ply twist processes.
