Definitions
- the invention relates to the art of conjugate filaments splittable into sub-filaments. More particularly, it relates to a process and product wherein the conjugate filament itself has no substantial texture while sub-filaments splittable therefrom have substantial latent torqueless helical crimp.
- Conjugate filaments splittable into sub-filaments are known to the art, as typified by Hayashi U.S. Patent 4,051,287. As disclosed therein, alternating segments of polyamide and polyester are spun in a side-by-side adhering relationship to form a hollow filament splittable into sub-filaments. Such sub-filaments can be of smaller denier than can be conveniently spun as separate filaments, lending a soft hand to fabrics made therefrom.
- the sub-filaments of Hayashi are not disclosed as possessing significant crimp, and, as illustrated in Figure 10 of the patent, are substantially flat (untextured) even though the conjugate filament had been textured by the false-twist heat-set method before being split into sub-filaments.
- Tanner U.S. Patent 3,117,906 describes a process comprising generally preparing a grey fabric from yarn comprising composite filaments comprising at least two different synthetic polymeric components adhered together in side-by-side relation throughout substantially the entire length of the filament, said different components having different shrinkage characteristics when subjected to heat; subjecting the fabric to a treatment involving controlled conditions whereby the different components are separated to form separate filaments and heating the fabric to effect shrinkage of the filaments, the heating being of sufficient duration and intensity to cause the filaments from the different synthetic polymeric compositions to shrink to a substantially different degree.
- the differential shrinkage causes the filaments that shrink less to be pulled into crimped and looped configurations and the fabric is thereby bulked, but the filaments do not themselves possess latent torqueless helical crimp.
- the process of the present invention is one for melt-spinning a hollow conjugate filament, splittable into sub-filaments, from nylon 66 and polyethylene terephthalate polymers axially arranged in an adhering relationship, the process comprising:-
- the invention also comprises a conjugate filament of nylon 66 and polyethylene terephthalate polymers axially arranged in an adhering relationship, sub-filaments of said filament being releasably attached to one another in a side-by-side relationship, and said filament being substantially free of crimp, characterised in that unicomponent sub-filaments split from said conjugate filament possess substantial latent torqueless helical crimp.
- the invention also includes a method comprising splitting a conjugate filament according to the invention into unicomponent sub-filaments.
- the filament is hollow.
- the preferred spinneret construction includes several generally arched or horseshoe-shaped slots 20 in spinneret blank 22 arranged symmetrically about a central point, the open ends of the horseshoe shape facing inwardly.
- the several slots 20 constitute a combined orifice for spinning a single filament. Slots 20 extend entirely through blank 22 except for a recessed web region 24 at the apex of each slot 20.
- the two dissimilar polymers are fed to the combined orifice as a sheath-core stream, with dotted circle 26 representing the interface between the two polymers.
- the adjacent ends of adjacent slots 20 are sufficiently close that the streams issuing therefrom unite just below the spinneret.
- the molten stream is thus a hollow structure composed of alternating axially extending segments of the two polymers. Surface tension and other effects tend to make the molten stream approach a hollow circular cross-section prior to solidification, substantially as shown in Hayashi Figure 1.
- Each polymer segment accordingly has a portion of its periphery exposed to quenching on the exterior of the hollow stream, and an opposite portion shielded and not so exposed since it lies in the interior.
- the molten steam is exposed while under the stress of spinning to quenching sufficiently rapid as to produce substantial latent torqueless helical crimp in the sub-filaments splittable from the conjugate filament.
- Nylon 66 polymer and polyethylene terephthalate polymer are extruded at a temperature of 290°C through the combined orifice, the nylon polymer being the core of the sheath-core stream approaching the combined orifice.
- Equal volumes of the two polymers are supplied, with the extrusion rate selected to produce a conjugate filament having a denier of 19.5 at a spinning speed of 1500 yards (about 1350 meters) per minute.
- a quench zone just beneath the spinneret and 1 t meters in height is supplied with quenching air at 20°C, the air being directed horizontally onto the polymer stream and having a speed of 25 meters per minute. Below the quench zone, steam is applied to the filament, a conventional finish is applied, and the filament is wound.
- the spun filament is then drawn at 65 meters per minute and at a draw ratio of 2.16 over a contact heater at 132°C, the heater being 0.4 meters long.
- the resulting drawn yarn when mechanically worked to break the conjugate filament into 12 sub-filaments, develops no substantial torqueless helical crimp when subjected to boiling water.
- Example I is repeated, except that the spinning speed is increased to 4500 meters per minute while the denier of the conjugate filament is reduced to 4.
- the resulting sub-filaments after separation and immersion in boiling water, form a highly voluminous and lofty yarn.
- Fabrics formed from the conjugate yarn acquire a very soft hand and increased bulk and covering power when the fabric is mechanically worked enough to separate the yarn into sub-filaments. Simple exposure of the fabric to boiling water is adequate in many instances, since the flexing of the yarn involved in certain fabric formations separates the sub-filaments.
