摘要:
A yarn containing a side-by-side or eccentric core-sheath type conjugated fiber made of polyester and polyamide which is heat-crimpable and whose percentage of crimp is increased by the absorption of moisture or water can give fabrics which are excellent in wind-barrier and warmth-retaining properties and have wool-like soft and bulky hand and which are little increased in see-through even when wetted with water.
摘要:
A composite fiber which expresses crimping and whose percentage of crimp varies reversibly in response to humidity, which maintains excellent variation properties in percentage of crimp even after the processes of dyeing and finishing, and which is highly practical and can easily yield comfortable fabrics with reduced stuffy feeling. The composite fiber comprises a polyester component and a polyamide component bound in a side-by-side or eccentric core-in-sheath structure, exhibiting a percentage of crimp DC of 1.3-15.0% after the composite fiber is treated in boiling water for 30 minutes under a load of 1.76 x 10 -3 cN/dtex, and then dry heat treated for 30 minutes at 100 C under a load of 1.76 x 10 -3 cN/dtex for stabilization of the crimps and further dry heat treated for one minute at 160 C under a load of 1.76 x 10 -3 cN/dtex, as well as a percentage of crimp HC of 0.5-10% after immersion in water at 20-30 C for 10 hours, and a difference ”C of 0.5-7.0% between the percentage of crimps.
摘要:
An elastic fiber which is made of a polyether ester elastomer comprising polybutylene terephthalate as the hard segment and polyoxyethylene glycol as the soft segment and containing a specific metal organosulfonate in a state copolymerized therewith and exhibits a moisture absorption of 5% or above at 35°C and 95%RH and an elongation on water absorption of 10 % or above. Since the elastic fiber is excellent in moisture absorption characteristics and stretches and shrinks remarkably and reversibly in accordance with the absorption and desorption of water, comfortable fabrics can be made of the elastic fiber. Further, the elastic fiber is recyclable.
