  • the present invention provides a process for relaxing stretched polyamide filaments so as to produce filaments of low and uniform tendency to shrink, and apparatus for use therein.
  • the polyamide filaments produced in accordance with the invention produce stable packages and woven and knitted fabrics showing only little streakiness.
  • the process of the invention comprises causing stretched but unrelaxed filaments to move in a first circumferential path at at most 110 C., then in a second circumferential path of lower diameter and at a temperature of 120 to 200 C., then in a third circumferential path of lower diameter than the second but at a higher temperature between 130 and 210 C., and finally in a fourth circumferential path of diameter equal to that of the third such path in which the said filaments are cooled.
  • the new process comprises passing stretched but unrelaxed filaments round a roller made with its surface in three sections of successively decreasing diameter, the filaments being first passed at a temperature of at most 110 C.
  • the roller required for the new process comprises three co-axial sections of successively decreasing diameter, the section of greatest diameter and part of the section of least diameter being provided with cooling means and the intermediate section and part of the section of least diameter adjacent the section of intermediate diameter being provided with heating means such that the temperature of the surface of part of the section of least diameter can be kept higher than that of the section of intermediate diameter.
  • the filaments produced by the new process have a uni form, low residual shrinkage, and the invention includes within its scope the use of the new filaments for the manufacture of woven and knitted fabrics having good dimensional stability and little streakiness.
  • Residual shrinkage is the longitudinal contraction in boiling water, determined as follows. The banks are immersed for 2.0 minutes in boiling water and then dried under a load of 0.1 gram per denier.
  • Residual shrinkage 100 X (length before shrinking) (length after shrinking) length before shrinking It is generally known that freshly stretched filaments of synthetic thermoplastic resins display a considerable residual shrinkage. Freshly stretched filaments of polyhexamethylene adipamide (nylon 66) display a high residual shrinkage, which decreases over a prolonged period asymptotically to about 10%. This residual shrinkage is in general undesirable. Inter alia, owing to the aforementioned recovery very strong and substantial bobbins must be used in the stretching operation to enable them to withstand the shrinking forces involved. On such a bobbin the individual layers of filament recover irregularly because the layers in direct contact with the solid bobbin can contract only very little, whereas the outermost layers contract much more. This produces in the reeled filament shrinkage diiferences which result in streakiness of woven and knitted fabrics. Attempts have already been made to overcome these disadvantages by heat-setting and relaxing the filaments.
  • Heat-setting performed for instance according to the method of United States patent specification No. 2,307,- 846, stabilises the length of the filament so that at temperatures below the heat-setting temperature no, or only minor, changes in length occur, even if the filaments or the woven or knitted fabrics made from them are heattreated in the slack state.
  • a swelling treatment may be performed, but in heat-setting the woven or knitted fabrics to produce and maintain a given shape a temperature must be used in such a case that is higher than the first-setting temperature.
  • United States specification No. 2,807,863 similarly describes a combination of heat-stretching, relaxing and heat-setting cord made from polyhexamethylene adipamide, which requires a voluminous installation. Relaxing is carried out in one stage at a temperature ranging from to C.
  • British specification No. 656,631 discloses a process and a device for heat-stretching and relaxing filaments with the aid of a driven and a cooperating freely revolving roller having sections of different diameter, the heat treatment being performed on a heating slide.
  • This proposal requires, however, substantial changes to be made to conventional stretching machines.
  • the filament is not heated on a roller but on a heating slide.
  • One advantage of the invention is that it makes it pos sible to use stable package on a support that is inexpensive and does not have to satisfy extreme demands of resistance to compressibility, such as a tube of cardboard or a plastic material.
  • Filaments suitable for use in the new process preferably consist of polyhexamethylene adipamide or polycaprolactam, but other polyamides or other thermoplastic polymers can also be used.
  • the filaments may have any desired final count, for example from 15 to 2000 denier (1.7 to 222 tex).
  • filaments having a count of 40 denier (4.4 tex) are suitable.
  • Those suitable for woven and knitted fabrics have a final count within the range of 15 to 300 denier (2 to 33 tex).
  • the threads may consist of monofils. or multifils, depending on the ultimate purpose.
  • Stretching is advantageously carried out with a stretching pin.
  • hotstretching may be used, for which purpose heating slides may be provided between the stretching pin and the roller, the thread being guided over them.
  • the thread is wound 2 to 4 times round the first section of the roller and the cooperating feed roller.
  • the axes of these rollers are slightly offset to ensure that the thread travels forward on these rollers in known manner.
  • the temperature of the first section of the roller must not exceed 110 C., and this can be ensured by adequate air cooling or insulation. When the cooling is satisfactory, the surface of the stretching zone hardly reaches 90 C. at a normal draw-off speed of 400 metres per minute.
  • the degree of stretch can be adjusted within wide limits and depends on the spinning conditions and on the use to which the relaxed filaments are to be put.
  • a positive temperature gradient is required between the second and third sections of the roller to prevent any heat-setting taking place before the third section.
  • This temperature difference should advantageously be at least 10 C. but, when a suitable roller design is used, it may be up to 50 C.
  • the total relaxation determined by the difference between the diameters of the individual sections, may range from 10 to 15% and depends on the ultimate use of filaments. In actual practice a lower limit of 2.5% residual shrinkage can and should be maintained. The upper limit of the residual shrinkage is probably about 7% using the temperature limits required for the performance of the invention. In general, taking into account the temperatures indicated above, a total relaxation of 13 to 14% is generally preferred. This value may apply to the two relaxing zones in 7 different proportions, and favourable results are obtained when, for example, two-thirds of the overall relaxation is carried out in the first relaxing zone.
  • the diameter of the section of greatest diameter is :5 mm.
  • that of the section of intermediate diameter is 91:4 mm. and that of the section of least diameter is 87:4 mm.
  • the filament is wound 3 to 8 times round the third section of the roller and the associated zone of the feed roller, the best value for the precise number of times being found by preliminary experiment. While keeping the tension constant, the filament is then cooled by being wound 2 to 5 times round a cooled part of the third section and is finally reeled under a moderate tension.
  • the temperature of the cooled zone should be as low as possible. In general, the roller itself will provide sufficient cooling, but when very thick filaments are made, there is no objection to providing additional cooling, for example by blowing cold air onto the filament.
  • the reeling speed is adjusted in known manner by the weight of the traveller to suit the speed of rotation of the spindle and the ring diameter.
  • the residual shrinkage may vary from 2.5 to 7% with a maximum deviation of :0.3% from the mean value per packages.
  • the filaments form stable packages that are easy to unwind and can be stored for any length of time. In woven and knitted fabrics made from them, the filaments produce little streakiness and ensure excellent dimensional stability of these fabrics. For an equal drawing rate applied to the filaments the elasticity of the woven and knitted fabrics made therefrom is superior to that obtained with unrelaxed filaments so that the practical value of many finished products is appreciably improved.
  • the roller of the invention which is intended to replace the stretching roller of a stretch-twisting frame, consists of three sections:
  • the first section which acts as a. conventional stretching roller, has the largest diameter.
  • This zone may consist, for example, of a collar of a plastic material which is resistant to wear and tear and is a poor heat conductor, or it may taken the form of a metal collar which makes pointwise contact with the roller body.
  • the collar may be cooled by an air current produced or assisted by transverse or longitudinal ribs.
  • the collar may have radial bores through which cooling air can escape outwards during rotation of the roller.
  • the second preferably narrow, section has a smaller diameter than the first and constitutes the first relaxing zone.
  • the third section of the roller has a smaller diameter than the second section and is in part the second relaxing zone. Inside this zone there is advantageously provided an electric heater so that in operation it has a higher temperature than the second section. Part of the third section acts as a cooling zone. As in the first section, the cooling may be achieved by longitudinal or transverse cooling ribs and radial bores.
  • FIGURE 1 is a diagram of a commercial stretch-twisting frame
  • FIGURE 2 is a roller in accordance with the invention with a plastic collar in the stretching zone;
  • FIGURE 3 is a roller in accordance with the invention with a metal collar in the stretching zone together with its associated feed roller.
  • the spinning bobbin 1 is fed by the spinning machine and placed on the stretch-twisting frame; the yarn is unwound over the top of the bobbin.
  • the yarn runs over a yarn guide 2 through the supply device 3 consisting of a pair of rollers, round the stretching pin 4 and onto the draw-off unit consisting of feed roller 5 and stretching roller 6 past which it is guided by a further yarn guide 7 and by means of the traveller 8 twisted on a ring twisting spindle 9 and 10 and finally reeled.
  • FIGURE 2 illustrates a roller 6A according to the invention, the upper half being shown in section and the lower half in side elevation.
  • the roller 6A is composed of the roller body 11 (seating on a spindle not shown in the drawing) and the plastic collar 12 shrunk onto it.
  • the plastic collar 12, which accepts the freshly stretched filament, has the largest circumference.
  • the roller body 11 has a first, narrow step and a second, wider step 13, a cavity 14 for fitting an electric heating coil and a thinner end portion 15, which is perforated to provide intense cooling and has a diameter equal to that of the second relaxing step 13.
  • the plastic collar 12 should advantageously make only pointwise contact with the roller body 11 to prevent as far as possible any transfer of heat to the freshly stretched filament.
  • the collar may be designed so that it is cooled in operation by the air flowing past it.
  • FIGURE 3 illustrates another variant of a roller 6B in accordance with the invention with its associated feed roller 5.
  • the upper half of the roller is shown diagrammatically in section, whereas the lower half is shown in side elevation.
  • the roller 68 is attached via a thermal insulation 17 to a spindle 16. It is composed of the roller body 18 which is polished externally and has inside a cavity 19 to accept an electric heating unit 20.
  • the roller body 18 carries on a thermal insulation 21 a polished metal ring 22 which is internally cooled in operation by circulating air. To improve the air circulation further, the metal ring may additionally be provided with radial bores (not shown) distributed over its whole surface.
  • the metal ring 22 has the largest diameter and is used to accept the freshly stretched filaments.
  • the roller body 18 has a narrow first relaxing zone 23, a wider second relaxing zone 24, and an open end portion 25 which has internal cooling ribs 26 and radial cooling bores; the diameter of the latter is equal to that of the second relaxing zone 24.
  • FIGURE 2 of the accompanying drawings Another thread of polyhexamethylene adipamide, consisting of 13 monofils., is stretched by 323% on the same stretch-twisting frame, but in this case the conventional stretching roller has been replaced by a roller as shown in FIGURE 2 of the accompanying drawings.
  • the thread coming from the stretching pin is wound twice round the cooled first section of the roller, which has a surface temperature of 81 C. and a diameter of 101.2 -mm., and round the associated zone of the feed roller.
  • the thread is guided as shown in FIGURE 1.
  • a two-stage relaxation is performed.
  • the thread is relaxed by 9% at a surface temperature of 150 C.
  • the number of windings is determined in known manner by the offset angle between the two rollers, the width of the thread and the width of the individual zones.
  • the properties of the threads A to D are shown in the following table:
  • the temperature difference between the two relaxing stages ranges from 10 to 30 C.
  • the above table shows that it is possible to obtain by the new process low and uniform residual shrinkage values.
  • the relaxed threads are very suitable for making doubled tops of stockings.
  • the textile products made therefrom can be dyed evenly and possess excellent dimensional stability.
  • Example 2 The experiments described in the foregoing example were repeated under slightly modified conditions with a coarser thread, consisting of 34 monofils., from polyhexamethylene adipamide containing 0.3% of titanium dioxide, in a manner such that a thread was obtained which had a count of about 210 denier (23 tex) and an elongation at break of about 19 to 24%.
  • four variants were relaxed under different conditions and each was reeled on cops at a speed of 266 metres per minute on a ring twisting spindle revolving .at 5400 rpm. with the aid of a ring of 12 cm. diameter and a traveller weighing 0.26 gram.
  • the following table shows the relaxing conditions and the results that can be achieved in this manner:
  • the drawing rate applied to the relaxed threads was intentionally chosen higher so as to arrive at an elongation at break comparable with that of the relaxed threads.
  • the relaxed threads possess greater tensile strength and display a low and uniform residual shrinkage. They are suitable for a variety of technical purposes in which a very minor residual shrinkage is of importance.
  • Example 3 Polycaprolactam threads, containing 34 monofils, are stretched as described in Example 2, except that the second relaxing zone has a diameter smaller by 4% than the first, and are then reeled under the temperature conditions given below so that a thread is obtained which has a count of about 230 denier (25 tex).
