Embodiment 1

[0051] Table 1 below gives details of the extrusion, spinning and winding operating conditions. The extruder in this case was a general purpose screw extruder with an aspect ratio of 24 and pin type mixing at the end of the extruder. This type of extruder provides acceptable mixing for polyester spinning.

Embodiment 2

[0063] In this set of experiments, the second godet pair was heated. A spinning speed of 2750 meters per minute (m / min) was used in order to obtain 100% elongation. The main variables in this example are the temperature of the godet and the number of wraps (of the yarn around the godet). Table 3 details the various variables and the results obtained. A very important observation from the data is that PTT has excellent package formation when the winding tension is very low, about 0.01 to 0.02 g / denier. Also, shrinkage measurements show that at reasonable temperatures, a minimum of 3.5 cycles would be required to reduce the shrinkage to close to zero.

[0064] In the temperature range of 100°C to 110°C, increasing the number of turns to 5.5 or 7.5 gives very low shrinkage. The results show that at 2750 m / min, the process route using the heated godet reduces the shrinkage by about 8-10% compared to the process without the heated godet. When the temperature or the number of wi...

Embodiment 3

[0068] In this example, the first godet pair was heated while the second godet pair was kept at room temperature. The winding speed was set at 2600 m / min in order to obtain a slightly higher elongation compared to the spinning speed of 2750 m / min. Additionally, an intermingling device is placed prior to the first godet pair to increase fiber integrity during storage and further processing.

[0069] Table 4 lists details of the parameters used and the results obtained in this example. These results show that similar results are obtained when the first pair of godet rolls is heated as the second pair of godet rolls are heated. Godet temperatures between 90 and 100°C lead to a marked reduction in shrinkage. The decrease in elongation and strength in this case is much smaller than heating the second godet pair. On the other hand, the Uster value increases more in the temperature range in which the shrinkage rate is substantially reduced.

Abstract

A process for the production and for the winding of one polyester yarn, preferably multi-filament yarn, which comprises at least 85 weight%, in relation to the total weight of the polyester yarn, of polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT) wherein said process is characterized in that filaments of said polyester yarn is heat-treated, before it is wound on a bobbin, at a temperature in the range of 70 DEG C to 180 DEG C. The method of accomplishing this is by heating the godets that are used in the spinning part of the process, preferably the last pair of godets, to relax the yarns so that the yarn package will not shrink significantly during storage and / or transportation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for spinning and winding polyester multifilament yarns comprising at least 85% by weight of polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT) relative to the total weight of the polyester filaments. Background technique [0002] The production of continuous polyester multifilament yarns, in particular polyethylene terephthalate (PET) multifilament yarns, is well known in a two-stage process. In the first stage the multifilament yarn is spun and wound, while in the second stage the multifilament yarn is drawn into a finished shape and heat set or otherwise stretch-textured into a bulked multifilament yarn. Between these two stages, the packages of multifilament yarn can be stored and transported at high temperatures for long periods of time without in any way affecting the process conditions of this second texturing stage and the quality of the product. [0003] The first step in converting polyester polymer chips into fabrics is t...
