  • woven fabric quality evaluation also showed that the thread was free of yarn stripes and ranked as A, proving to have good quality.
  • a poly(lactic acid) monofilament-containing drum-shaped package was produced under the same conditions as in Example 1. Since winding-up of the drum-shaped package was performed at a higher RB-driving OF rate than in Example 1, the degree of relaxation between the roller bail 12 and the spindle 13 slightly increased and as a result, spun thread breakage occurred several times due to thread coiling on the roller bail 12 .
  • the resulting poly(lactic acid) monofilament had a fineness of 30 dtex, a tensile strength of 4.3 cN/dtex, a dry heat shrinkage stress of 0.020 cN/dtex in the innermost layer part, and a boiling water shrinkage rate of 18%.

Since winding-up of the drum-shaped package was performed at a lower RB-driving OF rate than in Example 1, the package was at an acceptable level, though it has a slightly swollen shape.
  • the resulting poly(lactic acid) monofilament had a fineness of 30 dtex, a tensile strength of 4.3 cN/dtex, a dry heat shrinkage stress of 0.036 cN/dtex in the innermost layer part, and a boiling water shrinkage rate of 18%.

  • weft picking evaluation was performed by the same procedure as Example 1.
  • the number of times of processed thread breakage was zero in the innermost layer part and it was one in the parts other than the innermost layer part, that is, one in total, confirming that the thread was acceptable.
  • the thread was ranked as B, showing that it was acceptable despite slight yarn stripes found in some portions, although there were an increased number of yarn stripes attributable to differences in boiling water shrinkage characteristics.
  • a poly(lactic acid) monofilament-containing drum-shaped package was produced under the same conditions as in Example 1.
  • the drum-shaped package had a good wound-up shape, but thread breakage tended to occur more frequently during spinning.
  • the resulting poly(lactic acid) monofilament had a fineness of 30 dtex, a tensile strength of 4.2 cN/dtex, a dry heat shrinkage stress of 0.034 cN/dtex in the innermost layer part, and a boiling water shrinkage rate of 17%.

  • the number of times of processed thread breakage was 70 in the innermost layer part and it was two in the parts other than the innermost layer part, that is, 72 in total, confirming that the thread was unacceptable because of the frequent processed thread breakage particularly in the innermost layer part.
  • the thread was ranked as C and unacceptable because of the existence of scattered distinct yarn stripes.
  • Comparative example 5 where winding-up was performed without RB-driving, the dry heat shrinkage stress was high in the innermost layer part and both the quality of the resulting plain gauze fabric and the high order passage capability during weaving were low.
