preparation example Construction
[0043] In the preparation method of the fiber of the present invention, a crosslinking agent as defined below is added to either or both of the molten components i) and ii). When added, the amount of crosslinking agent added is about 0% to about 15% by weight, preferably 1% to 10% by weight, more preferably 2% to 8% by weight, based on the TPU used in polymer ii) %, based on the TPU used for polymer i), the amount of added crosslinking agent is about 5 wt% to about 25 wt%, preferably 8 wt% to 20 wt%, more preferably 10 wt% to 15 wt%.
[0044] The crosslinking agent used in the present invention is an NCO-terminated prepolymer having a functionality of 1.5 to 3, preferably 1.5 to 2.5, and more preferably 1.6 to 2.1. In one embodiment of the present invention, the crosslinking agent used is a prepolymer having an NCO content of 3% to 20% by weight, preferably 4% to 10% by weight, and more preferably 5% to 8% by weight.
[0045] The crosslinking agent can be prepared by the reaction ...
Embodiment 1
[0078] Two commercially available TPUs E1180A and E2280A (obtained from BASF, both have a Shore A hardness of 80A; their weight average molecular weights are 130,000 and 210,000, respectively) to prepare monocomponent fibers. A commercially available prepolymer PLP9302 (available from BASF, molecular weight about 2500) was used as a crosslinking agent (PLP9302 has a functionality of 2.0 and an NCO% of about 5.3).

[0081]
[0082] E1180A, E2280A and PLP9302 were also used to prepare bicomponent fibers. Specifically, the fiber is prepared by the following steps:
[0083] (1) Melt E1180A and E2280A in different extruders at 200℃ and 210℃ respectively,
[0084] (2) Mix PLP9302 into molten E1180A and E2280A at 2% and 10% by weight based on TPU, respectively,
[0085] (3) Two kinds of melts are extruded from a spinning head with two concentrically arranged nozzles, and the melts are heated at 210°C to obtain a bicompo...
