    摘要: The present invention discloses and claims a novel process for the formation of high denier as-spun and heat-treated filaments of a thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer. Preferred embodiments include process for the formation of as-spun and heat treated monofilaments of a few wholly aromatic polyesters and polyesteramides. The process involves (a) heating of a thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer to above its melting transition temperature; (b) passing said molten polymer through an extrusion chamber equipped with an extrusion capillary of an aspect ratio of greater than about 1 and less than about 15 to form a filament; and (c) winding the filament at a draw-down ratio of at least about 4. The filaments so formed are of at least 50 denier per filament (dpf) and feature essentially uniform molecular orientation across the cross-section. In a final optional step, the filaments are heat treated in stages to form filaments exhibiting excellent tensile properties. Both as-spun and heat-treated filaments feature remarkably good tensile properties retaining at least 80 to 90 percent of the properties expected of conventional low denier (5 to 10 dpf) filaments.

    摘要: The present invention discloses and claims a novel process for the formation of high denier as-spun and heat-treated multilobal filaments of a thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer. Preferred embodiments include process for the formation of as-spun and heat treated octalobal monofilaments of a few wholly aromatic polyesters and polyesteramides. The process involves (a) heating of a thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer to above its melting transition temperature; (b) passing said molten polymer through an extrusion chamber equipped with an extrusion capillary having a multilobal cross-section to form a multilobal filament; and (c) winding the filament at a suitable draw-down. The filaments so formed are of at least 50 denier per filament (dpf) and feature essentially uniform molecular orientation across their cross-section. In a final optional step, the filaments are heat treated in stages to form filaments exhibiting excellent tensile properties. Both as-spun and heat-treated filaments feature remarkably good tensile properties comparable to those of round filaments. Most importantly, the multilobal filaments of this invention feature much superior adhesion properties than the conventional round filaments.

Preferred embodiments include process for the formation of heat treated filaments of a few wholly aromatic polyesters and polyesteramides. The process involves: (a) heating of a thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer to above its melting transition temperature; (b) passing said molten polymer through an extrusion chamber equipped with an extrusion capillary of an aspect ratio of greater than about 1 and less than about 15 to form a filament; (c) winding the filament on to a bobbin at a low tension and draw-down ratio of at least about 4; and (d) heat treating the filament directly on the bobbin at suitable temperature and pressure conditions for a sufficient period of time. The filaments so formed are of at least 50 denier per filament (dpf) and feature essentially uniform molecular orientation across the cross-section. The heat-treated filaments feature remarkably good tensile properties retaining at least 80 to 90 percent of the properties expected of conventional low denier (5 to 10 dpf) filaments.
