Expressing technique and the device (comprising spinning head) of making the multicomponent continuous filament fibers are known and needn't describe in detail at this.Usually, spinning head comprises the shell that contains filament spinning component, and this filament spinning component comprises a plurality of platforms that are stacked on the top of each other, and described platform has the pattern of the opening of arranging the generation stream, and described stream is used for becoming fine component to guide to this spinning head individually.This spinning head has by the opening of a row or multi-row layout or hole.Polymer combination in the spinning head hole.Extrudate has required overall fibre cross section (for example, circle, trilobal etc.) to this spinning head through setting consequently.The spinning head opening forms the curtain of the downward extension of long filament.This kind technology and equipment for example are described in the U.S. Patent number 5,162,074 of Hills, and the document is hereby incorporated by.
After extruding via die orifice, the thin fluid tow of gained or long filament keep fusion one segment distance they are fixed by the cooling in the fluid media (medium) around then, and this fluid media (medium) can be to pass the cooling air that this tow (not shown) blows.In case fixed, just on godet roller or other rolling-in surface, batch this long filament.For example, in continuous filament yarn technology as shown in Figure 8, on godet roller, batch tow, this godet roller 36 and proportional this thin liquid stream of leaving behind of the speed of this rolling-in godet roller.
According to above-mentioned general remark, according to a particular, the invention provides the preparation method of multicomponent fibre, comprising: fibre fractionation at least a adjustment is provided; The outer fiber component is provided; This fibre fractionation is introduced the fiber extrusion equipment that comprises spinning head; With extrude this fibre fractionation so that form multicomponent fibre, wherein this outer fiber component is sealed fibre fractionation in this adjustment.Said method is especially favourable, because fibre fractionation is sealed by described outer fiber component in the described adjustment.This is known preparation method's the remarkable advantage that is better than comprising the fiber of phase-change material, and described known method allows at least a portion phase-change material to be discharged into the surface of extruding fiber usually.
As mentioned above, exist phase-change material to cause the sensation that fiber is agreeable, not greasy, possess the adjacent fabric of stain and other surperficial possibility and may cause at least a portion of phase-change material to be lost on the surface of fiber.Yet except that like this, in fact this expressing technique may become dangerous by allowing phase-change material to be exposed under the environmental condition.As described herein, under the temperature of room temperature, carrying out expressing technique usually.Because many phase-change materials for example aliphatic hydrocarbon may have lower flash-point, if so the phase-change material under extrusion temperature is exposed under the oxygen (as mentioned above immediately, leave extruding fiber and may being exposed under the environmental condition immediately of spinning head), then fire may take place.Yet,, got rid of this harm according to the present invention.
In this especially preferred embodiment on the one hand according to the present invention, fibre fractionation is introduced this spinning head with the outer fiber component before introducing spinning head in adjustment.Therefore, leave this spinning head and the free end of extruding fiber that be exposed under the environmental condition comprises the outer fiber component, and prevented fibre fractionation (being sealed) contact environment atmosphere in the adjustment by the outer fiber component.
According to the present invention, it is further especially favourable using the outer fiber component, because the fiber of being made fully by the phase-change material of blend shows some known restrictions.Yet multicomponent fibre prepared in accordance with the present invention (wherein fibre fractionation is sealed by the outer fiber component in the adjustment) shows improved performance, for example improved stainability.
