Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present application relates to the field of chemical fiber production, in particular to a preparation method of polyamide high-strength short fibers. BACKGROUND Due to the high intensity of sports, outdoor activities, professional training and other fields, the wear rate of clothing fabric is fast, which easily leads to the breakage of fibers in the fabric, causing the damage of clothing and the loss of its protective performance. Therefore, there is a great demand for good wear resistance of fabric. Polyamide short fibers have good wear resistance and hand feeling, and are easy to be blended with natural fibers such as cotton to realize the complementary advantages of wear resistance and wearing comfort, which matches the use demand in this field.

[0001] In recent years, the performance requirements of clothing in these application fields are increasing, and higher wear resistance of fabric is needed, which requires polyamide short fibers to have higher strength. In some professional outdoor sports and training fields, the customers require the strength of polyamide short fibers to be more than 6.5 cN / dtex, which is much higher than the strength range of 3.7-4.5 cN / dtex of conventional products. The breaking strength of polyamide short fibers is generally 3.7-5 cN / dtex, and the conventional preparation process is difficult to achieve a breaking strength of more than 6.5 cN / dtex, especially when the fiber fineness is fine, it is more difficult to improve the strength. In order to improve the performance, multiple short fiber drawing rollers and tight heat setting equipment are equipped to improve the breaking strength of polyamide short fibers, but this causes poor drawing uniformity and uneven fiber quality.

[0002] In addition, the demand for lightweight upgrading is increasing. For example, composite materials in the fields of automobiles, aerospace, wind power blades and other fields need higher strength short fibers for reinforcement to achieve weight reduction. A 10% increase in strength can reduce weight by 5%-8%. Lightweight high-strength short fiber reinforced composite materials can reduce blade load and prolong service life.
