Definitions

  • This invention relates to the production of yarns, filaments, ribbons and the like. More particularly, it relatesto' the melt spinning of yarns, filaments, ribbons, and the like from organic filament-forming compositions which have a tendency to change theirchemical composition while in the molten state.
  • the objects of this invention are accomplished, in general, by feeding the solid organic filamentforming composition on to a heated surface upon which melting occurs at a rate substantially equal to the rate of withdrawal of the molten composition, and allowing the molten filamentforming composition to flow to a pool of restricted volume from which the molten filament-forming composition may be withdrawn, for example, by forcing the same through an opening of a desired size and shape, solidifying the formed composition, and collecting the solidifiedarticles in any desired manner.
  • Figure 1 is a diagrammatic, side elevational view of an apparatus for melt spinning according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a similar view of another modification of the invention.
  • FIGS. 3 and Figure 4 are diagrammatic, side elevational views showing modified forms of the grid melting unit used in the present invention.
  • reference numeral H represents a cylindrical chamber which may be insulated or which maybe provided with means for heating the same.
  • the grid l2 is constructed of tubing and is preferably constructed from a non-corrosive metal such as stainless steel, Monel, illium or similar metal H alloy.
  • the spiral coil grid l2 may be heated by means of electrical resistance units positioned at the interior thereof or by means of a heating medium circulated therethrough, Solid pieces, e. g., flakes l5 of the organic filament-forming composition shown at iii are allowed to fall, preferably at a uniform rate, from the fiake hopper I! located above the chamber.
  • an atmosphere of an inert gas may be main-
  • the chamber II is provided with a substantially the same rate;
  • a pumping element e. g., a gear metering pump, for example, a pump similar to the type commonly used in the spinning of filaments from viscose, which meters it to the spinneret from which it is forced in the form of filaments, ribbons or the like.
  • these flakes shown at l5 should be of essentially uniform size andof somewhatlarger size than the spaces between turns of the melting grid l2. unmelted material falling throughv the grid. It is to be noted, however, that once melting has begun and the viscous, molten filament-forming composition is draining through the grid, flakes do not tend to fall through unmelted even though they be somewhat smaller than the grid separation since they are caught in the viscous mass. While the separation of the turns of the grid can be varied over considerable limits depending on the size of the flakes or chips of the filamentforming composition, the minimum separation of the turns of the grid is critical and is dependent on the viscosity of the molten filament-forming composition.
  • the flakes of filament-forming composition have a certain minimum size but it is also important that they be of a uniform size and only slightly larger than the spaces between the turns of the grid. There are several reasons for this: To achieve uniform melting and minimum exposure to the elevated temperature it is desired that a maximum surface area of the flake be in contact with the melting grid, which is attained by minimum flake size; to obtain melting at a uniform rate, which is vital to the invention, the particles should be of uniform size in order that they will melt at and likewise the feeding of the flakes to the melting grid is facilitated by the use of small uniformly sized flakes. Flakes suitable for use in this invention can be conveniently prepared by a process disclosed in the applicants copending application Serial No. 223,998 filed of even date herewith.
  • a melting unit for each spinneret since it is desired to maintain a minimum quantity of the filamentforming composition in the molten condition. It is to be understood, however, that the invention is not so limited, for by placing a plurality of spinnerets in close proximity to the melting grid, supplied by a rapid parallel or a circulating series flow through restricted passages or by other special means, one melting unit could supply a plurality of spinnerets.
  • the rate at which the flakes are fed to the grid may be accurately adjusted to the rate of extrusion of the molten filament-forming composition, it is desirable to know the quantity of liquid material present in the pool at all times, since an object of the invention is to obtain minimum exposure of the molten material to elevated temperatures. This may be done in a number of ways as by the use of gauges, windows, and the like.
  • a particularly convenient method of determining the quantity of liquid in the molten pool is by means of a conductivity measurement, since organic filament-forming compositions exhibit sufilclent electrical conductivity for such a measurement. This may be done by inserting a vertical electrode l8 through the bottom of the melt chamber H by means of suitable insulation 20.
  • This electrode is connected through a suitably calibrated milliammeter 22 to a battery 24 or other power source and thence connected to the walls of the melt chamber which comprise the other electrode.
  • the circuit is completed through the molten filament-forming composition. A rise in level is ac differentiated by an accompanying increase in the flow of current.
  • the amount of molten fllament-forming composition in the pool is preferred to restrict to the minimum quantity required to continuously supply the spinneret or other extruding means.
  • the maximum volume permissible depends to a large extent on the nature of the filament-forming composition and the rate of extrusion. In general, it is preferred that the volume does not exceed that which will be withdrawn from the pool in one hour, and more preferably in 15 minutes.
  • reference numeral 26 represents a cylindrical chamber preferably heated internally by passing a hot vapor, e. g., steam at high pressures, or Dowtherm, through the passages represented at 28.
  • a melting grid 30, preferably composed of metal, is heated internally, for example, by the passage therethrough of a hot vapor.
  • the melting grid 30 is provided with a metal plate 32 covering the open space left by the last turn of the coil.
  • the unheated cylindrical chamber 34 is filled with the flakes of filament-forming composition.
  • is preferably provided with a closure 36. In many instances, it is desired to preheat the flakes of filament-forming composition in this chamber. This increases the rate of melting when the flakes reach the grid and removes any excess moisture which may have condensed on the flake.
  • a hopper 38 is positioned below the grid 30.
  • the molten filament-forming into the hopper 38 after melting on and draining through the grid 30.
  • This molten filament-forming composition then flows from the hopper 38 through the passage 40 to the gear metering pump 42 from which it is forced to the spinneret pack 44 and spinneret 46 through conduit 48.
  • the molten material is ex- This modification of hopper '38, through arcane in the form of If it'is desired truded through the spinneret 4U filaments, ribbons, and the like.
  • the invention differs from that described in Figure 1 since the melt level is automatically maintained.
  • melting ocours and the hopper 38 becomes completely filled. Further melting results in the formation of a thin layer of the molten filament-forming composition above heat conductivity of the molten materialis very low, insumcient heat is transferred through this thinlayer of molten material to melt the solid above. Consequently, no further melting occurs until sufiicient molten material has been displaced by spinning to permit the level to fall below the level of the grid and to permit the solid filament-forming material to come; into" contact with the grid.
  • This construction of the maintenance of a constant apparatus allows the minimum quantity of the molten material;
  • Flakes of polyhexamethylene adipamide approximately x /4" x were placed in the chamber 34 completely filling it and the space in the chamber 28 above the melting the inert gas permitted the maintenance of an.
  • the molten filament-forming composition continuously drains from the melting surface. This downwardfiow of melt washes from i the melting surface any stagnant film. which sure of 10 lbs. of N: per square inch was maintained inside the chamber to prevent any diffusion of air into the apparatus. The flow of gas thus permitted replenishing the supply of the flakes without interrupting spinning.

  • the grid melting unit may take the form of a hollow cone 60 formed from rods or tubing as shown in Figure 3. In this modification, it may be desirable to provide the top of they cone with a cap 62.
  • the grid melting unit may comprise a pair of perforated metal discs 64 wedged against the side walls of the melt chamber 65, as shown in Figure 4.
  • a plurality of tubes 58 may be arranged between the discs 64.
  • Such discs 64 and tubes 68 can be heated by conduction of heat from the outside of the melting particles.
  • spiral grids may be formedfrom more than one circuit of pipe.
  • the melting grids may be maintained at any suitable temperature; preferably however, the melting grids are maintained at a temperature not to exceed 40 C.above the melting point of the filament-forming composition being spun.
  • an inert atmosphere in the melt chamber may be maintained, to prevent or reduce oxidation of the molten filament-forming composition.
  • Nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen or any other oxygen-free gas which is inert to thefilamentforming composition may be used for this purpose.
  • the gas may be introduced at any convenient point in the melt chamber to maintain molten filament-forming comsuch an atmosphere.
  • the face of the spinneret may be similarly blanketed to prevent oxidation of the freshly extruded filaments with accompanying interruption of the spinning.
  • This invention is peculiarly adaptable to the spinning from melt of filaments and the like from these fiber forming synthetic linear polymers and particularly to the synthetic linear polyamides which belong to this class since these synthetic linear polymers are crystalline in the solid state as evidenced by X-ray investigation and they have a definite melting point.
  • These synthetic linear polymers melt sharply, forming liquids which drain readily from the melting grid thus facilitating control of the melting and reducing any tendency to decompose at elevated temperatures.
  • Other synthetic linear polymers include the polyesters, polyethers, polyacetals, mixed polyester-polyamides, etc. which, for example, may be prepared by a process of condensation polymerization as described in U. S. Patent No. 2,071,250.
  • My invention is also applicable to advantage in the spinning from melt of filament and .the like, of the polymers prepared by the high pressure polymerization of ethylene which are more fully described in the copending application of Fawcett, Gibson and Perrin, Serial Number 123,722 filed February 2, 1937 since they are also crystalline in the solid state.
  • This invention is also applicable to the spinning of other organic filament forming compositions which are capable of being spun from melt particularly to the extruding of such materials which have a tendency to change their chemical composition while in their molten state.
  • filament forming compositions may be mentioned vinyl polymers, polystyrene and polyacrylic acid derivatives.
  • Cellulose derivatives, e. g., cellulose acetate suitably plasticized can also be spun according to the invention.
  • the present invention is not to be limited to the spinning of ribbons and filaments; the molten material may, for example, be withdrawn for the continuous coating of articles such as wire with synthetic linear polymers whereby to electrically insulate the same.

  • the solid filament-forming composition is melted rapidly and continuously whereupon the molten filamentforming composition drains directly to a pool of restricted volume from which it is extruded in the form of filaments, ribbons, and the like. Since the filament-forming composition is exposed to an elevated temperature for a minimum, constant period. any tendency toward decomposition, the formation of gaseous products and any tendency to polymerize further is reduced uniform physical to a minimum or is maintained at a constant rate. It is possible, therefore, to obtain in a continuous manner molten organic filamentforming compositions having uniform properties and to extrude these molten filament-forming compositions in a uniform and continuous manner in the form 01' yarns, filaments, ribbons, and
