Definitions

  • This disclosure relates to a highly hygroscopic fiber comprising a polyamide 56 resin.
  • Synthetic fibers each made of a thermoplastic resin such as a polyamide or a polyester are widely used for clothing, and for industries since the fibers are excellent in strength, chemical resistant, heat resistant, and other characteristics.
  • polyamide fiber is widely used for innerwear, sportswear, and others while the fiber makes good use of a softness, a high tensile strength, a color developability when dyed, a high heat resistant and other characteristics peculiar to the fiber.
  • JP 9-188917 A suggests a method in which after a polyamide fiber is formed, at the stage of post-treating the fiber a moisture absorbent is given to the surface of the fiber.
  • JP 5-209316 A suggests a method of using a polyamide resin into which a hydrophilic component, such as polyoxyalkylene glycol, is copolymerized to manufacture a fiber.
  • JP 3-213519 A suggests a method of rendering the structure of a fiber a core-in-sheath structure having a core region made of a thermoplastic resin high in hygroscopicity, and a sheath region made of a thermoplastic resin excellent in mechanical properties, thereby forming the fiber with compatibility between hygroscopicity and mechanical properties.
  • JP 60-246818 A suggests a method of: melt-spinning a blend composite composed of an alcohol-soluble polyamide, and a fiber-forming thermoplastic resin compatible with the alcohol-soluble polyamide; and then partially dissolving out, from the resultant, the alcohol-soluble polyamide to yield a hygroscopic fiber similar to a natural fiber.
  • JP '917 suggests a method of blending a polyamide with polyvinyl pyrrolidone as a hydrophilic polymer, and then spinning the resultant blend, thereby improving the resultant fiber in hygroscopicity.
  • polyamide fibers are lower in hygroscopicity than natural fibers to cause, for example, a stuffy or sweaty state based on sweating from the wearer's skin.
  • the polyamide fibers have a problem of being poorer in comfortableness than natural fibers.
  • a method in which after a fiber of a polyamide is formed, at the stage of post-treating the fiber a moisture absorber is given to the surface of the fiber.
  • a fabric of the fiber is lowered in washing resistance; and further when the fabric receives the supply of a large amount of a moisture absorbent to gain a high hygroscopicity, the fabric gets slimy in the surface thereof because of moisture absorption to give an unpleasant feeling.
  • the fiber is required to be made high in copolymerization proportion of comonomer.
  • the requirement causes the fiber to be remarkably damaged in mechanical properties of the yarn such as the strength and elongation thereof.
  • a fiber satisfying hygroscopicity and mechanical properties simultaneously has not yet been attained.
  • the composite fiber of JP '519 has a drawback that a manufacturing apparatus therefor becomes complex so that costs increase.
  • the fiber also has, for example, the following drawback because of the difference in water absorbing power between the polymers used in the core region and in the sheath region: at the time of subjecting the fiber to treatments with hot water, such as refining and dyeing, the hygroscopic resin in the core region absorbs water to swell largely; thus, the surface of the fiber is cracked so that the polymer in the core region is unfavorably dissolved out.
  • a fiber cannot gain a sufficient hygroscopicity when the quantity of the dissolved-out component is small. Conversely, when the quantity of the dissolved-out component is large, the fiber turns insufficient in physical properties, such as strength. Thus, when clothing thereof is worn, for example, a drawback that the fabric (of the clothing) is whitened or made into fibrils is caused. In short, it is difficult that the fiber satisfies both of hygroscopicity and physical properties.
  • the fiber according to the method of JP '917 is excellent as a hygroscopic fiber, the fiber is insufficient in heat resistance for being subjected to heat forming because of the addition of polyvinyl pyrrolidone to the base of polyamide 6 as a polyamide, under such a situation that: in recent years, for example, there has been recognized a fashion trend that women who wear T-shirts fitted tightly to their bodies have been increasing; and with the trend, a demand for heat-formed brassieres, which are not easily reflected onto outerwear, has been increasing.

  • the polyamide 56 fiber preferably contains 1,5-diaminopentane units obtained by use of a biomass since the fiber is very good in environment adaptability.
  • the quantity of 1,5-diaminopentane units obtained by use of a biomass is 50% or more of the quantity of the 1,5-diaminopentane units constituting the poly-amide 56.
  • the quantity is more preferably 75% or more thereof, most preferably 100% thereof.
  • the polyamide 56 is preferably a polymer having a 98%-sulfuric acid relative viscosity ranging from 2.4 or more to 2.6 or less for an effective production of the advantageous effects of our methods and fibers.
  • the polymer can gain a sufficient strength when made into a fiber. Additionally, when into a fiber, the polymer can gain an appropriate crystallinity degree and a sufficient hygroscopicity.
  • the pressure for feeding the polymer in a melted state, and the rate of a rise in the pressure with time are appropriate so that an excessive burden is not imposed to the manufacturing facilities and, for example, the period for changing the spinneret is not required to be shortened. Thus, a high manufacturability is kept.
  • the 98%-sulfuric acid relative viscosity referred to herein is a value obtained by dissolving 25 g of the fiber into 25 mL of 98% sulfuric acid and then using an Ostwald viscometer to make the viscosity thereof at 25° C.

  • the cross section is preferably a Y-shape, T-shape or double-cross form cross section, or some other cross section in order that when the fiber is made into a fabric, gaps can be generated between adjacent ones of the filaments so that the fabric can express water absorptivity by a capillary phenomenon.
  • the fiber has a higher moisture absorption and desorption parameter ⁇ MR, which shows the moisture absorptivity.
  • the ⁇ MR is an index for a purpose that the fiber can gain comfortableness by a matter that when the clothing is worn, the moisture inside the clothing is emitted to the outside air.

  • This ⁇ MR as a parameter is used as an index for evaluating a fiber about moisture absorption performance.
  • the fiber As a fiber has a larger ⁇ MR, the fiber is higher in moisture absorption and desorption power, which corresponds to a matter that when a person wears clothing thereof, the person feels more comfortable.
  • polyamide 6, polyamide 66 or some other polyamide fiber has a ⁇ MR of about 1.5 to 2.0.
  • the polyamide fiber has a ⁇ MR of 3.0% or more to show a high moisture absorption and desorption.
  • a fiber has a ⁇ MR less than 3.0%, the fiber is merely equivalent in moisture absorption and desorption to ordinary polyamide 6 or polyamide 66 species so as to result in a problem that when a person wears clothing thereof, the person does not feel a high comfortableness.
  • the upper limit thereof is not limited. However, even when the ⁇ MR is made considerably large, a large difference is not generated for bodily sensation. Thus, the ⁇ MR is sufficient to be about 20%.
  • the moisture absorption and desorption power of the above-mentioned polyamide fiber largely depends on the crystal structure of the fiber.
  • the moisture absorption of any polyamide fiber is classified into the following two cases: a case where water is coordinated to amide groups of the polyamide to be bonded thereto; and a case where water is taken into amorphous regions where polyamide molecular chains in the fiber are present in a random state.
  • the ⁇ MR, or some other reversible moisture absorption and desorption power depends particularly on the proportion of the amorphous regions in the fiber. Accordingly, to improve a polyamide fiber in ⁇ MR, it is important to increase the proportion of amorphous regions therein as far as the fiber is not damaged in spinning operability nor quality.
  • fibers wherein the orientation of molecular chains is enhanced are large in birefringence while fibers wherein the orientation is not enhanced are small therein.
  • the orientation of the molecular chains is an important parameter since the orientation produces a large effect onto the water absorption coefficient of the fiber as will be described in the following: the moisture absorption of a polyamide fiber is classified into two cases, i.e., a case where water is coordinated to amide groups of the polyamide to be bonded thereto, and a case where water is taken into amorphous regions where polyamide molecular chains in the fiber are present in a random state; in particular, the proportion of the amorphous regions in the fiber produces a large effect onto the ⁇ MR value.
  • any polyamide fiber the proportion of its crystal regions is large while that of its amorphous regions, which can hold water, is small.
  • the crystal regions are large in proportion, water on the surface of the fiber cannot reach the vicinity of amide groups inside the polyamide fiber.
  • the orientation of the molecular chains can be represented through the birefringence.
  • the fiber becomes larger in birefringence, the fiber tends to become larger in water absorption coefficient. If the fiber is too large in water absorption coefficient, the fiber excessively absorbs the spinning oil, and water in the air so that the yarn swells. Thus, stable spinning cannot be attained, and further structures of the fiber are varied so that the fiber is deteriorated in quality.
  • the orientation and crystallization of the molecular chains in the fiber are enhanced so that the fiber tends to be declined in moisture absorptivity.
  • the birefringence is preferably set into the range of 30 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 3 or more to 40 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 3 or less.

  • the polyamide fiber may be manufactured by the following method:
  • the discharged fiber gives a spinning liner velocity ranging from 14 m/min or more to 30 m/min or less.
  • the spinning liner velocity is a value obtained by dividing the discharged volume per unit time of the polymer from holes in the spinneret, from which the yarn is discharged, by the area of the holes in the spinneret, and is a parameter which controls the degree of the orientation of the yarn-form polymer discharged from the spinneret. If this spinning liner velocity is small, the ratio between the spinning liner velocity and the velocity of the take up roller 6 is large when the yarn is taken up through the take up roller 6 . Thus, an excessive draw tension is applied to the filaments which are being taken up, so that the single yarn is broken.
  • the polyamide cannot be stably spun. If the spinning liner velocity is too large, the orientation of the fiber is excessively promoted after the yarn is taken up through the take up roller 6 and then drawn through the draw roller 7 . As a result, the fiber unfavorably becomes a fiber small in moisture absorptivity.
  • a condition for the spinning is set to adjust, to 3,900 or more and 4,500 or less, the product of the take up velocity (m/min) of the yarn taken up through the take up roller 6 , and the draw ratio, which is a value of the ratio between the peripheral velocity of the take up roller 6 and that of the draw roller 7 .
  • This numerical value represents the total draw quantity of the polymer discharged from the spinneret while the polymer is drawn until the spinning liner velocity is turned to the peripheral velocity of the take up roller 6 and further drawn until the peripheral velocity of the take up roller 6 is turned to the peripheral velocity of the draw roller 7 . If this value is too small, the fiber is low in orientation degree to become a fiber having an excessively large moisture absorptivity.
  • the fiber excessively absorbs the spinning oil or water in the air so that the yarn swells.
  • the polyamide cannot be stably spun. If this value is too large, the fiber is excessively enhanced in orientation degree to become a fiber small in moisture absorptivity.
