Description

Treatment agents for synthetic fibers and their applications 【0001】 This invention relates to a treatment agent for synthetic fibers and its use. 【0002】 In the manufacturing of synthetic fibers for industrial and apparel use, fiber treatment agents are applied using lubrication rollers and guides, and from the viewpoint of uniform adhesion, treatment agents highly diluted with low viscosity paraffin or water have been used.
