Abstract: Improvements in permitting greater efficiency for low denier polypropylene fiber and yarn production are provided. Generally, spinning speeds are limited for polypropylene fibers and yarns as such materials tend to break easily upon exposure to excessively high tensions associated with low- to medium-spinning speeds. Low production speeds negatively impact the economics of producing such low denier fibers which prevents the widespread utilization of such fibers and yarns in various end-use applications, particularly applications for which low denier provides desirable hand characteristics. Thus, it has surprisingly been determined that such low denier manufactured fibers and yarns can be produced with certain nucleating additives that permit high tension levels in the quench stack as required for high-speed spinning procedures to be followed.
