  • Manufacture of cellulose ester filaments: lubrication in the spinning cabinet
    Patent number: 7815832
    Abstract: In the manufacture of cellulose ester fibers, a dope is extruded into filaments. Extrusion occurs in an elongated cabinet having an outlet for the filaments. The filaments are taken up after exiting the outlet. The filaments are lubricated at the outlet of the cabinet.

  • Cellulose acetate tow and method of making same
    Patent number: 6924029
    Abstract: A cigarette filter tow is a cellulose acetate tow having a high uncrimping energy (UCE) and a low fly. In one embodiment, the average UCE is greater than 280 and the average fly is less than or equal to 0.030 grams per 30 minutes. In another embodiment, the average UCE is greater than 265 and the average fly is less than or equal to 0.023 grams per 30 minutes. In another embodiment, the average UCE is greater than 250 and the average fly is less than or equal to 0.017 grams per 30 minutes.

  • Extrusion blow molding of thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers
    Patent number: 5336464
    Abstract: An extrusion blow molding process for a heat-treated, liquid crystalline polymer is provided. By the process, molten polymer having improved melt strength, is vertically extruded downward into space through a parison-forming, annular gap. Sag resistant parisons are formed. Beneficially, the parisons may be formed periodically. Advantageously, large-sized parts or structures may be produced.

    Assignee: Hoechst Celanese Corporation
    Inventors: Cheryl F. Corallo, Robert B. Sandor, Ralph S. Blake
  • Extrusion blow molding of filled liquid crystal polymers
    Patent number: 5306461
    Abstract: An extrusion blow molding process for a filled, liquid crystalline polymer is provided. By the process, molten polymer having improved melt strength, is vertically extruded downward into space through a parison-forming, annular gap. Sag resistant parisons are formed. Beneficially, the parisons may be formed periodically. Advantageously, large-sized parts or structures may be produced.
