  • Publication number: 20070116951
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a high strength polyethylene-2,6-naphthalate fiber produced by a method comprising controlling the stress-strain curve and fine structure of an undrawn yarn such that the drawability of the undrawn yarn in a drawing step is improved. The industrial polyethylene-2,6-naphthalate fiber with high strength according to the present invention shows high strength and low shrinkage, and a treated cord formed from this fiber has improved dimensional stability and high strength, such that it can be advantageously employed as a fibrous reinforcement material of rubber products such as tires.

  • Patent number: 6955854
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a high tenacity polyethylene naphthalate fiber containing a silica compound. This fiber is produced by a method comprising the steps of: (A) melt-spinning a solid phase-polymerized polyethylene-2,6-naphthalate chip containing ethylene-2,6-naphthalate units at more than 85 mole % and a silica compound and having an intrinsic viscosity of 0.70-1.20, to produce a melt-spun yarn; (B) passing the melt-spun yarn through a retarded cooling zone and a cooling zone to solidify the yarn; (C) withdrawing the yarn at such a speed that the undrawn yarn has a birefringence of 0.001-0.1; and (D) subjecting the undrawn yarn to multi-stage drawing at a total draw ratio of at least 1.5 and a drawing temperature of 50-250° C.

  • Patent number: 6812270
    Abstract: Disclosed is a process of producing a highly homogeneous cellulose solution, in which a mixture of powdered cellulose with polyvinyl alcohol powder is fed in conjunction with concentrated liquid NMMO into a kneader or an extruder to produce the highly homogeneous cellulose solution, or into the kneader to produce a swollen cellulose/polyvinyl alcohol paste and the paste thus produced is moved into the extruder to produce the highly homogeneous cellulose solution. The cellulose solution is extruded through a nozzle into a cellulose fiber. The process is advantageous in that the highly homogeneous cellulose solution can be rapidly and inexpensively produced because the cellulose solution is produced without a vacuum distillation step or separate swelling step, and formation of fibrils is prevented, thereby cellulose fibers with excellent flexibility and strength are produced from the cellulose solution.
