  • ⁇ Melt spinning> A die with a hole diameter of ⁇ 700 ⁇ m was attached to a melt spinning device (manufactured by Imoto Seisakusho: IMC-6721 type), 15 to 20 g of pellets with a total amount of CM and BCNF of 3 wt% were put, and spinning was performed at a spinning temperature (180 ° C., 190 ° C., or 200 ° C.). After warming the resin for 15 to 20 minutes, it was melt-spun under the conditions of a hydraulic cylinder of 2 MPa (gauge pressure) to obtain a yarn.
  • ⁇ Tensile test> A tensile test was performed on the prepared yarn using a tensile tester (EZ-SX 200N, manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation) at a speed of 5 mm/min.
  • Table 18 shows the water-soluble solvent used, the ratio of water and water-soluble solvent, the spinning temperature of the produced yarn, the average fiber diameter of the spun yarn, and the results of the tensile test.
  • Example 29 ⁇ Preparation of tamarind seed gum aqueous solution (mixture) in which BCNF is dispersed> Distilled water was added to the HP-BCNF sol, and after stirring until uniform dispersion, glycerin was added, tamarind seed gum was added, and the mixture was stirred until the tamarind seed gum was completely dissolved to obtain a mixture.
  • Table 19 shows the weight of each raw material used.
  • Sample no. without HP-BCNF sol. 1, 4, and 5 correspond to comparative examples, and the others correspond to examples.
  • ⁇ Deaeration of solution> Each mixture was placed in a vacuum dryer and dried at 70° C. and ⁇ 90 kPa (gauge pressure) or less for 30 seconds to 1 minute and 30 seconds to deaerate the solution.
  • Table 19 shows the results of the tensile test and the contact angle test.
  • a preferred range can be defined by arbitrarily combining the upper and lower limits of the numerical range
  • a preferred range can be defined by arbitrarily combining the upper limits of the numerical range
  • the lower limit of the numerical range Any combination of values can be used to define a preferred range.
