Definitions

  • JZAWAQL I E. BRONNERT' PROCESS OF DRYING ARTIFICIAL SILK.
  • This invention relates to a rapid drying in process for freshly precipitated cellulose hydrate. threads. 1 v
  • the difference 1 time necessary for drying is due to the fact that Water diffuses much more rapidly from artificial silk thread which has once been fixed by.drying than from the colloidal and gelatinous thread freshly precipitated or even from the thread which is approaching the normal solid state upon progressivedrying. Difj ferences of permeability of the material in a different physical state, and different strength of capillary forces may be the ssreasons of this phenomenon.
  • this invention consists in the proc ess, for drying cellulose hydrate filaments, by employing temperatures higher than have hitherto ,been held to be applicable, without impairing them. This is accomplished by using a strong current of air, care being taken by proper measures that the contact of theair with the threads is as intimate as possible and that at any given time, in any cross section of the apparatus, the temperatureis perfectly uniform.
  • Figure 1 is a diagrammatic longtiudinal section of such apparatus.
  • Figs. 2, 3 and 4 are similar views of other forms of such apparatus.
  • the drying passage is provided with vertical walls 0 which are perforated to allow air to pass and which form the drying chambers 0;, wherein the materialto be dried is placed. Between each pair ofwalls c a'space is left for the reception of heating coils 6,.
  • the perforated walls a may consist of lattice work or of perforated plates. The air flows in the direction of the arrows through the various chambers.
  • the air which has been cooled in the first chamber by drying the material deposited therein, is, upon passing out of the chamber into the next chamber not only quite uniformly heated by the heating coi 6,, but also, in consequence of the numerous uniformly distributed openings in the walls 0 is thoroughly mixed, so that only air which has been uniformly heated in all parts and is therefore in thermal equilibrium is admitted to the material deposited in the chamber next in line. cedure is followed in the subsequent cham bers formed by the spaced walls separating them.
  • the tops andthe bottoms of the drying chambers a are formed of perforated Walls 0 and the heating coils 6 are accommodated in between spaced impervious walls between the chambers a and which separate the drying chambers from one another.
  • the current of air, in passing through the horizontal perforated ,walls 0 is so mixed that it enters the drying chamhers in a uniformly heated condition.
  • the heating coils Z2 are housed in special communication passages which are arranged at the top of the apparatus.
  • the air flowing downwards out of one chamber a passes through the perforated walls 0 at the bottom into the next chamber through the upper perforated wall and the aperture i into the heating passage, is here heated up again and then flows through the aperture Z and the upper per-. forated Wall of the drying chamber into the latter chamber and so forth.
  • the re-heating of the air only takes place once for every other chamber.
  • Arrangements may be made if desired for removing the material which is first dried without waiting. until all the fibres in all the chambers are ready for removal, or for shifting the material from one chamber to another in any well known manner, or disconnecting the chambers singly from the hot-air circuit.
  • Such arragements however form no part of the invention, as the threads exposed to the hottest and driest air may quite safely be left there until the drying is completed throughout.
  • the step in the process of producing artificial silk which comprises subjecting gelatinous cellulose hydrate to the action of a continuously moving current of hot air, of a temperature of 100 C. to 140 C.
