Abstract: A method for obtaining a cord with high fatigue resistance comprised of a multifilament aramid yarn includes the steps of: a) spinning a solution of an aromatic polyamide into a coagulation bath; b) optionally neutralizing and washing the resulting multifilament yarn; c) treating the yarn on-line with a curable epoxy compound, optionally together with or followed by treating the yarn with at least one alkaline curing agent; d) obtaining the yarn having a free epoxide content of not more than 10 mmoles/kg; e) converting the yarn to a cord; g) treating the cord with a coating which is adhesive to rubber and rubber-like materials and different from the curable epoxy compound, and subjecting the cord to a further process f) comprising the step of treating the cord with a curable epoxy compound between steps e) and g).
