(Prior art) Performance required for work clothes in the manufacturing processes of precision industries, semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, etc. are (6) high ability to prevent dust passage;

(2) Excellent anti-static properties (2) and excellent chemical resistance (rumored to be excellent). Conventionally, polyethylene terephthalate m fibers have been used as these fiber materials, as shown in the example of JP-A No. 55-80485, but these fibers have good dust generation and chemical resistance. This is unsatisfactory from a viewpoint.If polyalkylene glycol or the like is kneaded into the fibers as an antistatic agent, this disadvantage will be further exacerbated.In other words, polyethylene terephthalate can cause fibers to break, fibrillate, and become fibrillated due to friction when worn or washed. It has the disadvantage that it has a strong tendency to fall off and generate dust.Also, strong acids are used especially in the manufacturing process of semiconductors, etc., and it has a disadvantage that it has low resistance to them and is prone to fiber breakage, fibrillation, and falling off.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The fiber of the present invention has an intrinsic viscosity of 0.70 or more.
In order to obtain uniform, strong fibers, it is preferable that the intrinsic viscosity at C is 0.7 or more, preferably 1.0 or more. Polyethylene terephthalate as a fiber material usually has an intrinsic viscosity of 0. 0.620 to 0.660, but in the present invention, the melt viscosity of the mixed thermoplastic fluororesin is low, so it cannot be spun, or it is unevenly distributed in the polyethylene terephthalate fiber, resulting in extremely high collar strength. Only fibers with large unevenness, single fiber breakage, and fluff can be obtained.Therefore, it is necessary to determine the intrinsic viscosity of polyethylene terephthalate based on the melt viscosity of the thermoplastic fluororesin.For this purpose, the intrinsic viscosity of polyethylene terephthalate is The intrinsic viscosity of polyethylene terephthalate is required to be 0.70 or more, preferably 0.85 to 1.20.Although it is possible to increase the intrinsic viscosity of polyethylene terephthalate and use it in the present invention, from the viewpoint of compatibility, viscosity 1
.. There is no need to raise it above 30. In order to obtain such high viscosity polyethylene terephthalate, solid phase polymerization is mainly employed, but the polymerization time is extremely long, which is economically disadvantageous. The polyethylene terephthalate used in the present invention can be sufficiently spun using a commonly used melt spinning machine if the spinning temperature and other conditions are appropriately selected. As for the coalescence, a thermoplastic material having a melting point of 280° C. or lower and having the following structural units is preferably used.

(R1, R2, R8, R4 represent hydrogen, fluorine, or a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms) Preferred specific examples of thermoplastic fluoropolymers include copolymers of polyethylene and tetrafluoroethylene, fluorine Examples include vinylidene chloride resin, but a copolymer of polyethylene and tetrafluoroethylene is preferably used for the purpose of improving chemical resistance. Furthermore, in the case of a fluoropolymer with a high fluorine atom ratio, for example, if it is 60% by weight or more, it will not melt even when heated to a high temperature or will become extremely viscous, making it difficult to knead it into polyethylene terephthalate. For example, a method of kneading ultrafine particles such as tetrafluoroethylene is known, but it is difficult to disperse them uniformly into the fibers, and this often results in uneven necking of the yarn, which does not satisfy the purpose of the present invention. Not only does it not have a good affinity with polyethylene terephthalate, but it also causes detachment of particles and breakage of polyethylene terephthalate.

At this time, the content of the fluoropolymer in the composition is 1.0 to 6.
It is desirable that the content be 0% by weight. 1.0% by weight
If the amount is smaller, the effect of the present invention will be difficult to fully express,
On the other hand, if it exceeds 5.0% by weight, the operability during spinning will decrease and the result will be worse! Composite fibers are also suitable, in which the sheath component is a kneaded composition that causes a decrease in physical properties, and the core component does not substantially contain a fluoropolymer. The purpose of creating a composite fiber whose sheath component is a composition consisting of a fluoropolymer and polyethylene terephthalate is to lower the composition ratio of the relatively expensive fluoropolymer. a#! Due to the presence of the fluororesin on the surface, the performance aimed at by the present invention is fully achieved, and w4#! It has the advantage that the overall strength is maintained high. Although the composite ratio of the core-sheath type composite fiber is arbitrary, it can be set to, for example, 9/1 to 1/20 (volume ratio).

The fibers obtained according to the present invention have a form in which the fluoropolymer extends in the fiber direction within the fiber by uniformly mixing polyethylene terephthalate and a fluoropolymer, which have a small difference in melt viscosity and therefore have good compatibility. Even if the breaking strength of the fluoropolymer is significantly lower than that of polyethylene terephthalate, if the method of the present invention is followed, the reduction in the breaking strength of the entire fiber will be within an acceptable range. In order to disperse polyethylene terephthalate and fluoropolymer more uniformly, a static mixer, twin-screw extruder, etc. can be used, but in that case, the melt viscosity is high, so the extruder ← and spinning gear pump discharge are necessary. It is necessary to consider that the pressure will be extremely high.
