AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Current polyamide 6,6 (PA66) yarns lack improved thermo-mechanical properties, making them unsuitable for harsh industrial applications where stress and elevated temperatures are involved.
Method used
A polyamide yarn with a formic acid relative viscosity (RV) of about 90 to 200 and a molecular weight distribution (Mz/Mw) characterized by a ratio of 1.40 to 1.50 ±0.03, which enhances the yarn's elongation at maximum force and melt-through resistance.
Benefits of technology
The improved thermo-mechanical properties of the yarn result in increased mechanical strength, enhanced resistance to heat, and improved processing efficiency, making it suitable for more demanding industrial applications.
