  • Patent number: 6896930
    Abstract: There is provided a method for manufacturing a polyester fiber cord for reinforcing rubber materials that has an excellent adhesive property to rubber materials, and maintains a good adhesive property even after exposed to high temperatures in a state being compounded with rubber materials. Said method is characterized in that a first aqueous processing liquid comprising a blocked polyisocyanate compound is applied to a polyester fiber that has been beforehand provided with an epoxy compound during a yarn manufacturing process or in a state of a twisted cord in an amount of 0.5 to 5.0% based on the fiber weight in terms of solids of the blocked isocyanate compound; the treated yarn is dried at a yarn temperature of ?(A+20)° C., wherein A° C. is a dissociation temperature of the blocked isocyanate, and then subjected to heat treatment; and a second processing liquid comprising resorcin-formalin-rubber latex is applied to the yarn, followed by heat treatment.
