AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the prior art, Trico warp-knitted fabrics have problems with deterioration of longitudinal stripe quality and insufficient tensile strength when using polyester fibers, especially when using eccentric core-sheath type composite fibers, the curling torque causes the coils to be aligned, affecting the abrasion resistance and softness of the fabric.

Method used

Polyester fibers with inconsistent shrinkage phases after heat treatment in an eccentric core-sheath profile are used. The profile (Y/X) is 1.1 to 3.0, the ratio of the minor diameter X to the core circumference L is 2.6 to 5.0, the core interface roughness is less than 15%, and the minimum sheath thickness S/X is 0.01 to 0.1. Specific polyester components such as propylene terephthalate and polyethylene terephthalate are used to form stable composite profile fibers.

🎯Benefits of technology

It achieves high quality, no longitudinal stripes, excellent abrasion resistance and tensile strength in Trico warp-knitted fabrics, and improves the physical properties of the fabric by controlling the fiber profile shape and composition combination.

Abstract

Provided is a polyester fiber and a tricot warp-knitted fabric, which can achieve a tricot warp-knitted fabric that is excellent in wear resistance and stretchability and in which longitudinal streaks are suppressed when the tricot warp-knitted fabric is produced, by dispersing crimp of the single yarn by crimp phase inconsistency. The present invention is a polyester fiber in which, in a fiber cross section of an eccentric core sheath profile polyester fiber, the profile is an irregular profile in which an aspect ratio (Y / X) calculated from a major axis Y and a minor axis X orthogonal to Y and passing through a center of gravity of the fiber is 1.2 to 3.0, a ratio L / X of the minor axis X to a circumference L of a core portion is 2.6 to 5.0, and a degree of irregularity on an interface of the core portion is 15% or less. The degree of irregularity on the interface: when a straight line passing through a most convex point of a core portion profile parallel to the minor axis X and passing through a side of the sheath portion at which the thickness is the greatest is set as W and a distance between the line X and the line W is set as Z, the value is represented by the following formula. Degree of irregularity = Z / X x 100.
