Definitions

  • Thelowering of the degree of swelling and also an' improvement in the resistance to fatigue are alsoof great importance. 7
  • the amounts of these additives should not be more than 4 millimoles per 100 grams of viscose.
  • These monoamines have also been added in substantially the same amounts to the spinning baths.
  • the spinning baths used when operating by these methods contain zinc sulphate, namely, in amounts of 3 to 25%.
  • serious disadvantages may be encountered in carrying out these processes, since the spinning conditions must be maintained within very narrow limits and in addition only a small latitude is allowed for the draw-01f speed. For example, if the desired technical results are to be assured, it is not possible to operate with draw-ofi speeds greater than 20-25 meters/minute.
  • the monoisopropanol amine is added in amounts of 2,893,821 Patented July 7, 1959 ice 2 0.06-0.4% by weight, preferably 0.10-0.15 by weight,
  • the addi tive can be employed with all viscoses of conventional working compositions, and as such there may be men;
  • the spinning ripeness of the viscose should not be'below a -nnmber of 42.
  • the spinning baths to beused should contain zinc in amounts of at least 3.2%.
  • the sodium sulphate content can be within the usual, limits between 14.00% and 20.00%, while the sulphuric,
  • the yarns spun by the process according to the present invention show strength values of 400-420 g./100 den. These-Values can be increased to 430-460 g./100 den. by afters'tretching. -The yarns are particularly suitable for use as tire cord owing to their high shrinkagez'and abrasion values, and also owing to an extraordinarily low swelling factor.
  • Example I Alkali cellulose composed of linters or wood cellulose with a high ot-cellulose content is sulphidised for five hours with 38% carbon bisulphide and the xanthate obtained is dissolved to give a viscose having 7.4% of cellulose and 5% of NaOH. During the dissolving operation 0.1% of monoisopropanol amine is added to the viscose. The viscose is then filtered in the usual way, deaerated and finally ripened, and is spun with a viscosity of 60 seconds by the falling-ball method and with a -number of 44. The spinning bath has a composition of 4.8% of H 80 4% of ZnSO and 17% of Na SO and a temperature of 60 C.
  • the yarn has 1000 filaments with an individual titre of 1.65 den. and is guided over a distance of 65 cm. in the spinning bath and is withdrawn by a roller at a speed of 21 meters/minute.
  • the yarn then travels through a second weakly acid bath which has a temperature of about C. and is withdraw-n at the end of said second bath by a second roller revolving sufiiciently fast to give a yarn drawofi speed of 42 meters/minute, so that the yarn is stretched by From the second roller the yarn runs into a centrifuge rotating at 4600 r.p.m. and is given a twist therein of turns per meter. After being washed and finished, the yarn is finally stretched by 8% and dried.
  • the finished yarn has tensile strengths of 4.4 g./den. (dry) and 3 g./den. (wet), and elongation values of 14% (dry) and 27% (wet).
  • Example I A viscose corresponding to that described in Example I isspun at a temperature of 60 C. into a bath having the following composition: 5% of H 80 4% of ZnSO and 16%. of Na SO A spinneret with 120 orifices is used;' the yarns have a titre of 60 den. After being stretched by 100% in a second hot bath, the yarn is collected in a centrifuge. It has a tensile strength of 4.2 g./den. with an elongation of 15%.
  • a method for the manufacture of regenerated cellulose yarns from viscose the step which comprises adding to viscose a small amount of mono-isopropanol amine.
  • step 2 which comprises adding to viscose approximately 0.060.4% by weight of mono-isopropanol amine.
  • step 3 which comprises adding to viscose approximately 0.100.15% by weight of mono-isopropanol amine.
  • the method of producing regenerated cellulose yarn from viscose comprising spinning viscose into an aqueous spinning bath containing sulphuric acid and at least 3.2%
  • the method of producing regenerated cellulose yarn from viscose comprising spinning viscose into an aqueous spinning bath containing sulphuric acid and at least 3.2% zinc sulphate, the viscose containing approximately 0.06-0.4% by weight of mono-isopropanol amine and the concentration of sulphuric acid being at most the same as the concentration.
