Definitions

  • the invention relates to a process for the production of cellulose fibers or cellulose filament yarns with improved properties of pulp by the dry wet extrusion process with aqueous amine oxides, in particular N-methyl-morpholine-N-oxide, as solvent, in which a) pulp and aqueous amine oxide at elevated Dissolved temperature in a reactor, transferred under dehydration and shear in a homogeneous solution having a zero shear viscosity in the range of 1000 - 8000 Pas and a relaxation time in the range of 0.5 - 80 seconds at 85 ° C, b) the solution at least one spinneret feeds and deformed, c) the solution jet is transported through a non-precipitating medium under further deformation and d) precipitates in a precipitation bath the cellulose filament or strand, separates via a deflecting element from the precipitation bath and washes in a multi-stage aftertreatment, aviviert, dries and optionally cross-linked ,
  • U.S. Patents 4,246,221 and 4,416,698 disclose dissolving cellulose in water-containing amine oxides, forming under low shear strain capillaries, distorting the solution jets in a large air gap, precipitating the cellulose through a aqueous amine oxide-containing spinning bath and stripping the cellulose filaments over a godet.
  • U.S. Patent No. 5,417,909 discloses a process which deforms the solution under medium to high shear in the spin capillaries, draws solution jets in a short air gap, precipitates the cellulose, and senses the yarns across a spinning cone and carries them cocurrently ,
  • EP 0 430 926, EP 0 494 852, EP 0 756 025 and WO 94/28 210 describe certain nozzles with different spin capillary geometry and arrangement.
  • WO 96/20 300 deals with the distance between two spinning capillaries and the path between spinning capillary and deflecting element in the precipitation bath.
  • EP 0 584 318, EP 0 671 492, EP 0 795 052, WO 94/28 218 and WO 96/21 758 describe the differentiated forms of treating the group of threads in the gap between spinneret and precipitation bath with air of different water content.
  • EP 0 659 219 describes the preparation of a cellulose fiber having a lower tendency to fibrillation, in that an empirical formula of spinneret orifice diameter, spinning mass flow, titer, width of the air gap and moisture content of the blowing air should not exceed a value of 10.
  • a lower fibrillation tendency is to be achieved in that the blow-in air contains aliphatic alcohols and in EP 0 853 146 in that the precipitation takes place in two or more stages.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a method with an improved thread formation process, which records all relevant sizes for the thread formation in a relationship and thus allows a targeted adjustment of fiber / filament properties starting from a solution with defined cellulose concentration, molecular weight and molecular weight distribution.
  • the fibers spun according to the invention are intended to permit subsequent crosslinking without significant embrittlement.
  • ⁇ D is the extensional viscosity in Pas
  • is the strain rate in s -1
  • T 10 is the fineness of the fiber to be spun in dtex
  • v a is the take-off speed in m / min
  • ⁇ L is the density of the solution in g / cm 3
  • c Cell . the cellulose concentration of the spinning solution in%
  • D E inlet diameter and D A exit diameter of the spinning capillary in cm 1 length of the spinning capillary in cm, a length of the air gap in cm and SV the spinning distortion in the air gap, ie the ratio of withdrawal and injection speed.
  • the extensional viscosity for a spinning solution is determined by the cellulose concentration, the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution, and changes only with the temperature and strain rate.
  • the zero-shear viscosity of the cellulose solutions at 85 ° C. is preferably 1000-8000 Pas during spinning to filaments and preferably 5000-40000 Pas during spinning into staple fibers.
  • the width of the viscosity range results from the fact that the experimentally accessible zero-shear viscosity of the cellulosic solutions, in addition to the molecular weight and
  • Concentration also depends on their degree of solvation or solution state and only at complete solvation. long release time reaches a minimum final value.
  • Practice-relevant spinning solutions are often solubilized in an unsatisfactorily solvated manner and thus simulate a higher value for the zero-shear viscosity or the molecular weight.
  • fibers are spun at a strain rate in the range between 15 and 40 [1 / s] and the fibers are treated in the last stage before drying with a solution which simultaneously contains a lubricant, a crosslinking agent and a crosslinking catalyst. After drying and crosslinking, a fiber is obtained with significantly increased wet rub resistance with only a small change in the other fiber parameters.
  • filament yarns are spun at a stretching speed in the range of 60-100 [1 / s], the amine oxide is removed by multi-stage washing, dried over a first heated roller pair to a water content> 80%, carried by piston diaphragm pumps driven by compressed air motors and spray nozzles a defined amount of a mixture of avivage and
  • Crosslinking agent on the group of threads dried and crosslinked via a second heated roller duo. This gives a filament yarn with significantly increased wet scrub resistance.
  • the lyocell fibers have a wet scrub resistance in the range of between 10 and 50 rubs. It is also apparent from the cited literature that sufficient wet abrasion resistance is present if the fiber test gives ⁇ 340 rubs.
  • the fiber was washed, refined and dried at 125 ° C (A).
  • the avivage liquor contained 5 g / l glyoxal and 0.5 g / l magnesium chloride (pH 6.7).
  • the application was carried out by spraying the fiber (B) predried to> 80% water and by dipping and pressing with roller duo (C).
  • 300 g of eucalyptus pulp, enzymatically pretreated, pressed to a water content of 45% by weight, are dispersed in 2726 g of NMMO with a water content of 30% by weight and heated, shearing and evaporating 772 g of water in a homogeneous solution (density 1.178 g / cm 3 ) with a zero shear viscosity of 5,081 Pas and a relaxation time of 6.0 s at 85 ° C.
  • the particle analysis showed a filter value of 76.
  • the composition of the solution was 12.0 mass% cellulose (Cuoxam DP 508, 5.67 ununiformity), 76.3 mass% NMMO and 11.7 mass% water.
  • the calculated strain rate was 21.8 s -1 .
  • the fiber was washed, refined and dried at 125 ° C (A).
