Problems solved by technology

[0020] However, since the groove processing is performed around the island component discharge hole 1 and the discharge hole 25, the pitch between the holes becomes large, and the hole filling density cannot be sufficiently increased, making it difficult to manufacture ultra-fine fibers with a fiber diameter of nanometer order. Happening
As described in the examples, since the minimum diameter of the fiber that can be obtained is 1 μm, it cannot reach the nanometer level.
In addition, since the spinneret is subjected to complicated groove processing, time, labor, and cost are required for the manufacture of the spinneret, and there is also a problem that the equipment cost becomes too large in this point.

Embodiment 1

[0269] Polyethylene terephthalate (PET melt viscosity: 120 Pa?s) with an intrinsic viscosity (IV) of 0.63 dl / g as the island component and 5 with an IV of 0.58 dl / g as the sea component polymer -Sodium sulfonate isophthalic acid 5.0 mol% copolymerized PET (melt viscosity of copolymerized PET: 140Pa·s) was melted at 290°C respectively, measured, and flowed into the assembled Figure 6 In the spinning package of the composite spinneret according to this embodiment shown, a sea-island composite polymer stream is discharged from the spinneret discharge holes. In addition, 1,000 island component discharge holes were perforated at equal intervals in one discharge introduction hole for the island component polymer on the distribution plate of the lowest layer. The sea-island ratio is 50 / 50. After cooling and solidifying the discharged composite polymer stream, add an oil agent, and take it up at a spinning speed of 1500m / min, and obtain undrawn fibers of 150dtex-15 fibers (single hol...

Abstract

Provided is a composite spinneret for the manufacture of islands-in-the-sea composite fibers, whereby the island component polymer streams can be prevented from converging while the hole packing density of the extrusion holes for the island component polymer is expanded, and whereby various fiber cross sections, and particularly heteromorphic cross sections, can be formed with high accuracy, while maintaining high dimensional stability of the cross section. The present invention provides a composite spinneret for extruding composite polymer streams composed of an island component polymer and a sea component polymer, the composite spinneret being characterized by being composed of one or more distribution plates in which are formed distribution holes and distribution grooves for distributing the polymer components; and a lowermost layer distribution plate positioned to the downstream side of the distribution plate in the direction of the polymer spinning path, and having formed therein a plurality of island component extrusion holes and a plurality of sea component extrusion holes. The present invention is also characterized in that some of the sea component extrusion holes are arranged on a virtual circular line (C1) of radius (R1) centered on the island component extrusion holes, some of the sea component extrusion holes are arranged on a virtual circular line (C2) of radius (R2), and some of the island component extrusion holes are arranged on a virtual circular line (C4) of radius (R4) according to a predetermined arrangement while satisfying the expression (1) R2>=R4>=3*R1.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a composite spinneret and a method for manufacturing composite fibers. Background technique [0002] Fibers using thermoplastic polymers such as polyester and polyamide have excellent mechanical properties and dimensional stability, so they are used in a variety of applications, and a large number of fibers endowed with various functions have been developed. [0003] For example, in the application of clothing, for the purpose of imparting a soft feel, etc., the monofilament is thinned and multi-fiberized, and the monofilament is deformed for the purpose of water absorption, quick-drying improvement, and gloss change. In addition, improvements such as modification of polymers are performed for the purpose of imparting new functions such as realization of vivid dyeing. In addition, in the application of industrial materials, in addition to the fineness of monofilaments, multi-fibers and special-shaped cross-sections of monofila...
