Definitions

  • This invention relates to improvements in the production of yarns, filaments, ribbons, and the like from synthetic materials. More particular- 1y, it relates to the melt spinning of yarns, filaments, ribbons, and the like from organic filament-forming compositions. It is particularly concerned with the uninterrupted melt spinning of multlfilament yarns from synthetic linear polymers with the proper maintenance of constant pressure on the molten material to prevent bubble formation.
  • the organic filament-forming compositions of which the synthetic linear polyamides are an example have a tendency to change at the elevated temperatures of a melt spinning process.
  • the synthetic linear polyamides are obtained by a polymerization at elevated temperature so there is a tendency for the polymerization to continue thus altering the physical properties such as the viscosity, as Well as the chemical properties.
  • These gas bubbles will have the same eflect as a foreign particle insofar as the spinning operation is-concerned because if a. bubble is permitted to reach the spinneret opening a broken filament is likely to result.
  • the objects of the invention can be accomplished, in general, by the use of a spinneret assembly containing a mass of inert, finely divided material arranged in a predetermined order of graduated particle size together with means for supporting the finely divided material and means for uniformly distributing the spinning melt over the internal face of the spinneret.
  • Figure 1 is a sectional view through a portion of the spinning unit assembly.
  • Figure 2 is a sectional view of a modified form of spinneret assembly.
  • Figure 3 is a plan view of the screen assembly shown in Figure 2.
  • Figure 4 is an enlarged fragmentary plan view of a spinneret plate surface.
  • the base of a portion of a melt spinning apparatus is represented by reference numeral H having the channel l2 in communication with a suitable metering device (spinning pump not shown), by which the molten material to be spun is brought to the spinneret assembly.
  • the base is provided with the shoulder E3 to facilitate a tight connection between the base I I and the spinneret assembly.
  • An externally threaded bushing I4 is screwed into the internally threaded opening l5 of the base II.
  • the bushing 14 is provided with several threaded holes I8 to receive the bolts l6 by which a. ring I5 is bolted against the flange I! of bushing M.
  • the bushing II also serves to aline and support a spinneret pack retaining tube 20.
  • the spinneret 25 caps the open end of the tube 20 and by means of the gasket 21 a tight joint is secured when the bolts l6 are tightened bringing the ring l5 tightly against the flange IQ of spinneret 25.
  • the arrangement of clamping elements shown is typical, but any other means for holding the spinneret assembly securely in place may be employed as desired.
  • the tube 20 defines a chamber which is filled with a spinneret pack comprising a finely divided inert material 3
  • the coarse mesh screen 24 is supported on an annular ledge 22 of the tube 20.
  • a pair of fine mesh screens 28 and 29 are cupped over the end of tube 20 while a coarse mesh screen 30 rests on the inner surface of the hat-type spinneret 25 which latter is provided with perforations 26 of sufficient size and number to produce the desired multifilament yarn.
  • the finely divided inert material 3l rests on a screen assembly 32.
  • a plate-type spinneret 34 is employed.
  • the screen assembly is shown in greater detail in Figure 3 from which it can be seen that it includes a fine mesh screen 36.
  • a coarse mesh screen 38 is positioned adjacent screen 36 as will be seen in Figure 2.
  • the screens are held together in an annular frame 40.
  • the frame 40 may be composed of any suitable material such as gasket metal into which the screens may be fitted and held together as a unit.
  • the spinneret pack retaining tube 20 is provided with internal grooves 33. These grooves are made sufficiently large and deep so as to permit the accumulation of the finely divided inert material therein.
  • a comparatively coarse mesh screen 35 is also positioned on the top of the loose, finely divided inert material to prevent its displacement, and to function as a distributing member for the molten material.
  • fine grooves 50 may be provided on the internal face of the spinneret plate 52. These grooves will function as a distributing means for molten filament-forming composition and thereby cause an even, uniform flow to all of the spinneret orifices 54.
  • a fine mesh screen can be-positioned directly in contact with the internal face of a spinneret plate constructed in this manner without interfering with the passage of the liquid through the spinneret orifices.
  • the spinneret pack comprising the finely divided inert material 3
  • the spinneret pack is divided into several strata of sand represented in Figure '1 by the letters A, B, C, and D.
  • the sand for each of these strata is carefully selected, as will be described below, and elutriated to remove any dust or excessively fine particles which may be present normally or as the result of sieving operations.
  • the elutriation process may be carried out conveniently as follows: Two hundred grams of sand are dispersed in a mixture of 200 cc. of water and 12 grams of a 35 per cent sodium silicate solution. A glass tube about 36 inches in length and 2.5 inches in internal diameter is drawn down at one end to a diameter of about 0.25 inch.
  • eiutriator tube is arranged in an upright position with the small endv lowermost. .By means of a water line connected to the small end of the elutriator tube, water is passed upwards through the tube, overflowing at thetop of the tube at a rate of about 1600 cc. per minute. The sand and water dispersion is then poured into the tube where it is elutriated by the flowing stream of water. The elutriation is continued until no more sand washes over the top of the tube. This treatment removes all spherical particles with diameters substantially less than 100 microns and also non-spherical particles with long dimensions up to about 150 microns.
  • the fine sand in stratum A should have a particle size of about 60 to 150 mesh, predominantly 100 to 150 mesh.
  • the sand in stratum.B should be about 45 to 100 mesh, predominantly 45 to 65 mesh.
  • the sand in stratum C. should be about 35 to 65 mesh with the coarser sizes predominating.
  • all, the sand in stratum D should be coarser than 65 mesh although it should not be coarser than about mesh.
  • Example I A spinneret pack retaining tube of the type illustrated in Figure 1 having an internal diameter of 0.75 inch and an internal length of about 1.25 inches was provided with four disc-shaped square-mesh screens to support the spinnet pack.
  • the two lowermost screens were 16 x 16 mesh, the next was 80 x 80 mesh and the uppermost (nearest the sand) was 150 x 150 mesh.
  • Four layers of sand were arranged above these screens in order of increasing coarseness using for each layer elutriated sand having a screen analysis as set forth in Table'I, and using 2.0 grams for layer A, 1.5 grams for layer B, and 1.0 gram each for layers C and D.
  • Atop the sand was placed a discshaped 80 x 80 mesh screen and about this a similar 16 x 16 mesh screen to hold the sand in place.
  • Two disc-shaped 325 x 325 mesh screens were cupped over the small lower end of the retaining tube in such a manner as to permit their being held, snugly in place by the hat-type spinneret plate.
  • a single disc-shaped x 80 mesh screen was cut to just fit the inside face of the hat-type spinneret plate provided with 15 holes (each hole 0.007 inch in diameter) and containing the last-mentioned screen pressed tightly over the cupped fine mesh screens. The entire assembly was then clamped in position on the base of the spinning apparatus as shown in Figure 1 of the drawing.
  • Polyhexamethylene adipamide having a melt viscosity of approximately 500 poises at 285 C. was melted and pumped at a rate of 14.75 grams per minute through the spinneret assembly made up as described above.
  • An initial pressure of 890 lbs. per square inch was developed back of the spinneret pack.
  • the quality of spinning was excellent.
  • the yarn was wound up at approximately 2,800 feet per minute and spinning con-- tinued uninterruptedly for 41 hours. During this period the back pressure of the spinneret pack increased to only 1200 lbs. per square inch representing a pressure increase at the rate of only 7 lbs. per hour of spinning.
  • Example II 3 were arranged in the assembly so that the fine mesh screen was uppermost and the coarse mesh screen was adjacent the upper surface of the spinneret plate.
  • the interior surface of the filter chamber was grooved as illustrated in Figure 2.
  • the filter chamber was filled with four layers of elutriated silica sand, each layer having a screen analysis as set forth in Table I.
  • Layer A was composed of 20 grams of sand, while 15'grams of sand were used for each of the remaining layers.
  • the spinneret assembly was clamped to the base of the spinning apparatus1 in a manner similar to that shown in Figure Polyhexamethylene adipamide having a melt viscosity of 400 poises at 285 C. was melted and pumped at a rate of 12.5 grams per minute through the filter and spinneret assembly. The start-up of spinning and the spinning itself were excellent.
  • the yarn was wound up at approximately 2500 feetper minute and spinning continued uninterruptedly for hours;
  • the screen assembly at the lower end of the filter bed can be modified to meet the needs of the particular spinneret pack. In any case, however, the mesh of the uppermost screen must be finer than the particle size of the finest sand.
  • the uppermost surface of the spinneret pack may be confined by means of the coarse screen in Figure 2.
  • This screen will be chosen of a mesh size somewhat finer than the coarsest sand.
  • This screen will also act as a distributing member'to aid in the more uniform distribution of the liquid mass so that it will spread more uniformly over the entire area of the spinneret pack.
  • a combination of two or more screens may be used at this point as set forth in Example I. In such a case the progression of screen size is preferably coarse to fine in the direction of fiow of the liquid.
  • suitable materials will bechosen which will be non-corrodible under the conditions of use, such, for example, as stainless steel, Monel metal, Illium, or similar metal alloys.
  • the interior surface of the filter chamber may be scored, grooved, or threaded, as illustrated by 33 in Figure 2. This scoring or grooving will afford more intimate contact of the sand particles with the wall of the filter chamber and will frequently aid in preventing shifting of the sand layers, as well as in preventing any tendency toward channeling or bypassing of the liquid between the filter bed and the wall of the filter chamber.
  • the preferred spinneret pack is composed of silica sand.
  • the object of the invention may be accomplished by the use of any finely divided, inert, dry, solid material which will not disintegrate. into finer particles during the period of and under the conditions of its use.
  • glass particles or metal filings, such as iron filings may be substituted for the sand.
  • equal care must be exercised to eliminate excessively fine particles and to stratify the pack in the same manner as described for a sand pack.
  • the arrangement of the finely divided materials in the spinneret pack is critically important and the progression of particle size must be from coarse to fine in the direction of liquid flow. If the progression of the sand particles is from fine to coarse in the direction of fiow. there will be a progressively diminishing resistance to the flow of the liquid. This will result in the spinning of many broken filaments and the formation of'drips. These are believed to be caused by evolution of gas backof the spinneret, or in the molten portion of the filaments.
  • the rate of pressure build-up is so much greater that spinning cannot be continued for a practical length of time.
  • a partial explanation may reside in the fact that the major portion of the foreign materials in the molten filament-forming composition will be collected by the first portion of the sand layer, clogging the spinneret pack rapidly. By passing the molten materal through a coarse pack medium first the foreign materials are collected gradually and the clogging of the pack is delayed sufficiently to make its use-highly practical.
  • the back pressure developed by the spinneret pack is low and results in difficult start-up of spinning, broken filaments, reduction in jet velocity at certain spinneret openings to the point where the molten mass oozes out and collects on the spinneret face, fouling the spinning by what are commonly called drips.
  • the low back pressure is insufiicient to force solution of any gases entrapped 'in the spinneret pack as the molten material advances, and is 'insuiiicient to prevent bubble formation by decomposition of the material. Formation of a bubble at the face of the spinneret frequently causes a broken filament, while if the bubble forms upon approaching the spinneret a "drip is likely to be formed.
  • Example I Under the conditions of Example I an initial back'pressure of 890 lbs. per square inch was developed. Most of this pressure was developed by the sand layers A and B, by the 325 x 325 mesh screens and by the spinneret openings. It is believed that about 300 lbs. pressure was developed by the sand layers, 300 lbs. by the two screens (325 x 325 mesh) and the remainder by the spinneret. Since the only free space between the spinneret and the 325 mesh screens was that in the meshes ofthe x 80 mesh screen, the molten polyamide was not exposed for more than a very short time to a pressure of the order of 300 lbs. or less before being extruded. Thus bubble formation was substantially eliminated.
  • the style of spinneret assembly of Example II is preferred.
  • the larger spinneret pack permits longer life, the fin mesh screen is more positively sealed, and there isno space between the fine sand and the finest screen.
  • the presence of the coarse (50 x 50 mesh) screen effects distribution of the liquid mass so that all filaments will be substantially alike in diameter.
  • spinneret of disc type is preferred to the hat type used in Example I since it can be made heavier and stronger, and the sand can be brought closer to the face of the spinneret.
  • the amount of sand used in the spinneret pack is not critical so long as enough fine sand is used to result in a back pressure sufiicient to prevent bubble formation, drips, etc.
  • a pressure of at least 500 lbs. per square inch should be developed at the start. Pressures above 1500 lbs. per square inch should be avoided to guard against abnormal wear on the spinning pump.
  • the spinneret pack chamber should be substantially filled so that the amount of polyamide or other molten material required to completely fill the remaining space will be as small as possible. This will insure a fiow sufilciently rapid to help minimize the time of exposure of the molten material to the elevated temperature.
  • the invention has been described in connection with its use in the manufacture of multifilament yam from synthetic linear polyamides of which polyhexamethylene adipamide is a specific example.
  • the invention is applicable, however, to the melt spinning of any organic filament-forming composition which is subject to the formation of bubbles from whatever cause under the conditions just prior to and during the spinning thereof, provided the gases redissolve under pressure and the decomposition is slow enough to permit metering before sufiicient gases are formed to exceed the solubility under the conditions of temperature and pressure.
  • synthetic linear polyamides that is, synthetic linear polymers con-' taining CONH-- units in the linear chain
  • synthetic linear polymers such as polyesters, polyethers, polyacetals, and mixed polyester-polyamides, such as may be prepared by condensation reactions as described in U. S. Patent No. 2,071,250 may also be employed.
  • Other types of synthetic polymers such as ethylene polymers, vinyl polymers, polystyrene and polyacrylic acid derivatives may also be spun with advantage in accordance with the present invention.
  • the filament-forming material used in accordance with the present invention may contain modifying agents, e. g., luster-modifying agents, plasticizers, pigments, and dyes, antioxidants, resins, etc.
  • modifying agents e. g., luster-modifying agents, plasticizers, pigments, and dyes, antioxidants, resins, etc.
  • the present invention can be used to advantage in extruding filmor filament-forming compositions in which the bubble formation may be caused by the presence of a modifying agent.
  • the use of the spinneret pack described in the present specification offers many advantages in a melt spinning process for the manufacture of multifilament yam.
  • a pack of suflicient depth is easily possible so that the pack can remain in operation for longer periods of time before it becomes necessary to change it.
  • a voluminous pack medium is provided so that the volume of molten material in the pack chamber is small in proportion to the fiow area in order that the amount of material which is kept subject to decomposition at elevated temperature remain ata satisfactory minimum.
  • the pack is adaptable to conditions of high pressure which are required in the spinning process to prevent bubble formation and consequent imperfect spinning.
  • the pack medium is cheap.
  • the pack medium aids in the distribution of heat, easily maintaining the molten material in proper condition for good spinning. It aids in distribution of flow of the liquid so that the latter is uniformly supplied to the spinneret, and it aids in guarding against a pressure drop on the liquid prior to passage of the liquid through the spinneret.
