The present invention provides processes for producing polybenzazole fibers where a spinning dope containing a polybenzazole polymer in an acid solvent is extruded through a spinning nozzle, followed by coagulation in a coagulating medium and washing with a fluid capable of dissolving the acid solvent; thereafter, in one process, the fiber obtained by the coagulation under specific conditions and the subsequent washing is dried in a heating zone with at least 80% part based on the total length thereof being set at a temperature of 240.degree. C. or higher, and in the other process, the fiber obtained by the coagulation under the conventional conditions and the subsequent washing is neutralized with a basic solution, followed by washing with a fluid capable of dissolving the basic solution, and then dried at a specific temperature set depending upon the residual moisture content in the fiber.

C. when measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).

There is provided a differential scanning calorimeter for exactly measuring a calorie variation of the measured sample on the basis of the temperature difference between sample container and the reference container without the influence of the heat irregularity incoming from the surroundings and the noise components. The differential scanning calorimeter includes a heating furnace of an approximately H-shaped section having an approximately drum-shaped wall part and an approximately plate-shaped heat inflow part, a heater disposed outside the wall part so as to heat the heating furnace, a approximately bar-shaped heat-resistance member that is arranged along the center axis L of the wall part, that protrudes from both sides of the heat inflow part by an approximately equal length, that is made of a material heat conductivity lower than that of the material of the heating furnace, a sample container disposed at one end of the heat-resistance member, a reference container disposed at the other end of the heat-resistance member, and a differential heat flow detector measuring a difference between the temperature of the sample container and the temperature of the reference container as a measured value.

摘要:
Polybenzazole polymer dopes are spun through a spinneret having more than 2 per cm.sup.2, of orifices in relatively close proximity. The dope filaments formed, then pass through an air gap which has a temperature of 50.degree. to 100.degree. C. and a gas flow sufficient to uniformly reduce the temperature of the dope filaments. The filaments cool in the air gap and are then coagulated.
摘要:
Described is a continuous process for removing polyphosphoric acid from a polybenzazole dope filament, which comprises: (a) contacting the dope filament with water or a mixture of water and polyphosphoric acid under conditions sufficient to reduce the phosphorous content of the filament to less than about 10,000 ppm by weight; and then (b) contacting the dope filament with an aqueous solution of an inorganic base under conditions sufficient to convert at least about 50 percent of the polyphosphoric acid groups present in the filament to a salt of the base and the acid. It has been discovered that contacting the dope filament with a solution of a base after washing the filament to remove most of the residual phosphorous advantageously leads to an improvement in the initial tensile strength of the filament, as well as improved retention of tensile strength and/or molecular weight (of the polybenzazole polymer) following exposure to light and/or high temperatures.
摘要:
A viscoelastsicity measuring apparatus which includes a pair of sample holders, a sample clamping chuck, a detecting rod, a detecting rod support, a displacement detector, a force generator, a sine-wave generator, an amplifier and a heat source for heating the sample and which operates such that a sine-wave stress is induced in the sample and a strain generated in the sample due to the stress is detected so that the modulus of complex elasticity as a characteristic value of the viscoelasticity of the sample is measured on the basis of the amplitude of the stress and the phase difference between the stress and strain. Further, the sample holders are made resilient so that they can move in a direction normal to the sine-wave stress without loss while the extent of their movement in the direction of the stress is made so small as to be negligible, whereby any deformation of the sample due to a thermal expansion of the sample by heating is eliminated in the direction of the stress and strain detection, thereby improving the viscoelasticity measurement accuracy at a temperature different from the temperature at which the sample is set.
