Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to a composition and process for preparing articles having improved moisture management properties.
  • the invention relates to a composition and process for
  • polyester-based fibers and polyamide-based fibers that exhibit improved moisture management or wicking properties without detrimental
  • the fibers of the invention may be any suitable material.
  • Synthetic fibers have generally suffered from an inability to wick moisture efficiently. Improvements in the wicking properties of fibers are highly
  • an efficient wicking fiber may provide
  • improved wicking properties may assist in drying of the floor covering after shampooing and cleaning.
  • improved wicking assists in
  • compositions includes a polyester or polyamide, and one or more polyoxyalkyleneamines.
  • the composition contains from about
  • polyester or polyamide 97 to about 99.75 % by weight of polyester or polyamide and from about
  • composition contains from about 98 to about 99.5 % by weight of
  • polyester or polyamide from about 0.5% to 2 % by weight of polyoxyalkyleneamine.
  • the polyoxyalkyleneamine may be added directly to the polyester or polyamide, or in the form of a thermoplastic concentrate or masterbatch by compounding it in a suitable thermoplastic carrier.
  • suitable thermoplastic carriers are polyester or polyamide or mixtures thereof.
  • polyamide includes those synthesized from lactams, alpha-omega amino acids, and pairs of diacids and diamines. Such polyamides include, but
  • polycaprolactam [polyamide 6]
  • polyamide 11 polyundecanolactam
  • polyhexamethylene adipamide polyamide 66
  • polyamide 12 poly(hexamethylene dodecanediamide
  • polyamide 6,12 poly(hexamethylene sebacamide) [polyamide 6,10], poly(ethylene terephthalate), poly(butylene terephthalate), poly(trimethylene terephthalate). If the polyoxyalklenediamine is used in this masterbatch form, then the amount of polyester or polyamide in the above formulation is adjusted to take into account the amount of the thermoplastic carrier in the polyoxyalkylenediamine masterbatch.
  • the preferred polyoxyalkyleneamine is poly(oxyethylene)diamine (POED)
  • polyoxyalkyleneamine that can be used in the invention is poly(oxypropylene)diamine, also with a molecular weight of 2000.
  • Polyesters include thermoplastic polyesters such as those synthesized from one or more diacids and one or more glycols. Such polyesters
  • Polyamides include thermoplastic polyamides such as those synthesized
  • polyamides from lactams, alpha-omega amino acids, and pairs of diacids and diamines.
  • polyamides include, but are not limited to, polycaprolactam [polyamide 6], polyundecanolactam [polyamide 11],
  • polyamide 6 polyhexamethylene adipamide
  • polyamide 12 polylauryllactam
  • polyamide 612 poly(hexamethylene dodecanediamide
  • polyamide 610 poly(hexamethylene sebacamide)
  • compositions used in the practice of the invention may contain
  • antioxidants UV stabilizers, antiozonants, soilproofing agents,
  • Fibers produced from the composition can be melt-spun using various additives
  • the fibers can be spun using standard spinning machinery
  • a range of denier per filament (dpf) may be
  • the cross-sectional shape of the fibers may also be any of a wide range of
  • melt-spun fibers including crimping
  • the fibers may be any material that is used to make upholstery fabrics, carpets and other floorcoverings.
  • the fibers may be any material that is used to make upholstery fabrics, carpets and other floorcoverings.
  • the fibers may be any material that is used to make upholstery fabrics, carpets and other floorcoverings.
  • the fibers may be any material that is used to make upholstery fabrics, carpets and other floorcoverings.
  • polyolefins or acrylics or natural fibers such as wool or cotton, and
  • a comparative (non-inventive) 150/34R yarn was spun and false-twist
  • Example 2 textured in a similar manner to Example 1, except the POED masterbatch
  • the water transport rate is measured according to a so-called vertical
  • Table 1 shows the test results for Examples 1 to 3 for the vertical strip
  • melt-extruder fiber spinning line to give a 1850/30Y undrawn yarn.
