Abstract:
Disclosed are wholly aromatic polyamide filament and a method of manufacturing the same, characterized in that, in a process of preparing wholly aromatic polyamide polymer, a multiple tubular feed pipe for polymeric monomer and polymerization solvent with specific construction of adjacent inner paths 11a and outer paths 11b which are alternately arranged one another is used to feed either aromatic diacid chloride A or aromatic diamine dissolved in the polymerization solvent B into a polymerization reactor 20 through corresponding one among the inner and outer paths 11a and 11b. The present invention is effective to progress uniform and homogeneous polymerization over all of area of a polymerization reactor 20 leading to reduction of deviation in degree of polymerization, since polymeric monomers are miscible and react together very well immediately after putting the monomers into the reactor 20. Accordingly, the wholly aromatic polyamide filament produced exhibits narrow PDI and increased ACS, so as to considerably improve strength and modulus thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an aromatic polyamide pulp and its preparing process which has both excellent physical properties and high degree of polymerization wherein aromatic diamine is reacted with aromatic diacid chloride in amides and/or urea-based polymerization solvent containing inorganic salts and/or a little of Lewis acid compound. The present invention can easily provide the pulp of high polymerization degree and high orientation by stirrer in the continuous transferable polymerization-orientation-gelation apparatus within a short time without use of a tertiary amine affecting human body and without regard to isotropic or anisotropic, and continuous or uncontinuous ejection.

Disclosed is an aramid product in which the number of defects present in noncrystalline regions is considerably reduced and a composition for aramid for producing the same. The composition contains aromatic polyamide and a fused aromatic compound, wherein the content of the fused aromatic compound is 0.01 to 10 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the aromatic polyamide.
Abstract:
Disclosed is aromatic diamine with high purity obtained by efficiently removing impurities and preventing oxidation, and a method for manufacturing the same; and aramid fiber with improved discoloration resistance realized by preventing deterioration in quality even for a long-period exposure to the external environments of sunlight, atmosphere, and moisture, and a method for manufacturing the same.
Abstract:
Disclosed are wholly aromatic polyamide filament and a method of manufacturing the same, characterized by comprising multi-stage injection of a coagulant with sulfuric acid concentration lowered sequentially stage by stage, to a spun material fed into a coagulant injection tank. The present invention enables increase of a spinning and take-up velocity without occurrence of thread cutting by uniformly and evenly coagulating surface and inside of the spun material. In addition, the present invention recovers the coagulant or water already used and reuses the recovered coagulant or water in the earlier stages, so that it has advantages of saving production costs and reducing environmental contamination. Accordingly, the wholly aromatic polyamide filament produced according to the present invention has high crystallinity X, large apparent crystal size ACS and reduced defects in the crystal itself, thereby exhibiting more improved physical properties such as strength and modulus.

Disclosed are wholly aromatic polyamide filament and a method of manufacturing the same, characterized in that, in the process of preparing the wholly aromatic polyamide polymer, the aromatic diamine, aromatic diacid chloride and polymerization solvent put into the reactor 20 are agitated by an agitation device which is installed in the reactor 20 and consists of: (i) a rotor 3 driven by a motor 2 and having a plurality of pins 3a; and (ii) a stator 4 having a plurality of pins 4a, wherein spin speed of the rotor 3 is controlled to 10 to 100 times of both of feeding rates for the aromatic diacid chloride and the aromatic diamine in the polymerization solvent into the reactor and, at the same time, contact frequency between the pins 3a and the pins 4a is regulated within a range of 100 to 1,000 Hz. The present invention is effective to progress uniform and homogeneous polymerization over all of area of a polymerization reactor 20, thereby reducing deviation in degree of polymerization, since polymeric monomers are miscible and react together very well in the reactor 20. Accordingly, the wholly aromatic polyamide filament produced exhibits narrow PDI and lowered paracrystalline parameter gII leading to reduction of defects of a crystal itself, so as to considerably improve strength and modulus thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses microcellular fibers, in which microcells are formed with a density of more than 107 cells/cm3 with a supercritical fluid introduced into fiber forming polymers and have a rate of volume expansion of 1.2 to 50, a ratio of microcell length to microcell diameter of more than 2 and a monofilament diameter of more than 5 μm. The microcellular fibers provide high and uniform cell densities and are good in the rate of volume expansion and the ratio of cell length to cell diameter, thus they are very excellent in lightweight feeling and touch. The microcellular fibers are made by a method for making microcellular fibers, wherein a supercritical fluid is introduced into an extruder upon melting and mixing fiber forming polymers in the extruder, to thus prepare a single-phase solution of molten polymer and gas, then the single-phase solution of molten polymer and gas is extruded (spun) through spinneret of spinning pack by subjecting the single-phase solution to a rapid pressure drop, to thus make microcellular extrusion materials, the microcellular extrusion materials are rapidly cooled by a cooling medium, and then they are wound at a winding speed of 10 to 6,000 m/min so that a spinning draft can be 2 to 300.
Abstract:
The ER fluid comprising water-soluble starch as conductive particles contains less than 5 wt % water. The ER fluid of the present invention comprises water-soluble starch as a conductive particle which is dispersed in non-conductive media. The ER fluid of the present invention exhibits a considerable ER effect, even though the amount of water contained in the ER fluid is reduced. Thus, it can be widely applicable to water-sensitive damping devices and power devices such as a suspension system, a vibration damper or an engine mount, a break, a clutch, and so forth. And it is feasible for various fields such as an automatic and an aerospace industry.

The present invention discloses a bulletproof fabric and a body armor manufactured using the same. The bulletproof fabric includes an aramid fabric 10 including wholly aromatic polyamide multifilaments as warps and wefts, a primary water-repellent coating layer 20 formed on the aramid fabric 10, and a secondary water-repellent coating layer 30 formed on the primary water-repellent coating layer 20. The body armor of the present invention has a laminate structure of stacking up 10 to 50 sheets of the above bulletproof fabrics, preferably, further includes an aramid composite pad 40 inserted in a pocket provided at a part of the body armor. According to the present invention, water-repellent properties are excellent to noticeably improve bulletproof performance in a wet state, and specifically, when the body armor has the aramid composite pad 40 inserted therein, rear deformation of the body armor after the bulletproof performance test is considerably reduced.
