  • Patent number: 6887414
    Abstract: Method for manufacturing polyester fibers comprising melt-extruding a polymer without increasing an intrinsic viscosity of the polymer during spinning to minimize a reduction of the intrinsic viscosity of the polymer; maintaining a low atmospheric temperature directly below a nozzle to maximize a degree of orientation of undrawn yarn; winding the polymer at 2,000 m/min or more to produce a undrawn yarn, followed by drawing the undrawn yarn through continuous three phases at low temperature. The method has advantages in that high strength and low shrinkage polyester fibers with a uniform fineness and physical properties can be manufactured at high spinning efficiency, without formation of broken filament and curved filament, by preventing formation of a vortex of cooling air with the use of eddy plates directly below a nozzle.
