  • the bristles of which are made of monofilaments, so-called monofilaments, are made of plastic, which can be made relatively thin with a suitable material selection and also offer the possibility of structuring or profiling their outer surface in order to further improve the cleaning effect, especially in narrow gaps due to the scraping effect.
  • bristles of brushes formed from such filaments ensure additional properties, such as a certain coloring, stability against degradation through thermal stress or through chemical effects including enzymatic effects as a result of contact with saliva, the highest possible abrasion resistance, dimensional stability, flexural strength, flexural recovery and like that.
  • thermoplastic polymers For bristles of the generic type, synthetic threads made of melt-spinnable, thermoplastic polymers are usually used, with standard polymers that have been known for a long time, for example polyolefins such as polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP), and polyamides such as polyamide 6 being used for reasons of cost (PA 6) or polyamide 6.6 (PA 6.6), or on polyester such as polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), provided that filaments made from these polymers can meet the desired requirements.

  • melt and wet spinning processes are suitable for producing the filaments of generic bristles, with the dissolved polymer being spun into threads through a spinning capillary during wet spinning and the solvent being recovered as completely as possible and fed back into the production process. Nevertheless, it cannot be avoided that small amounts of the solvent used remain in the finished fiber, whereas it is desirable to provide a solvent-free fiber in order to minimize any potential safety risk, including a health hazard, caused by the presence of solvent residues in the fiber .
  • melt spinning processes in which higher degrees of crystallization can also be achieved, which can have an advantageous effect on the mechanical properties of the fiber.
