It is possible by the present invention to keep hazardous gases occurring during the spinning of polymers away from the surroundings and to dispose of them. Suitable polymers are in particular polyphenylene sulphides. The invention further relates to an adapted apparatus for carrying out the process according to the invention. The apparatus comprises an extruder (1), a spinning pump (2) and a spin pack (3) which contains a filter (4) and spinnerets (5). The spinnerets (5) open out directly into a closed spinning shaft (6) which is provided with at least one feedline (7) and one discharge line (8) for the quench gas. In the representation of Figure 1, two discharge lines (8) for the quench gas are depicted at the top and bottom end of the spinning shaft.

  • Schmelzspinnverfah ren von thermoplastischen Polymeren, bei denen gekapselte Spinnschächte verwendet werden, sind an sich bekannt.Melt spinning process of thermoplastic polymers, in which encapsulated spinning shafts are used are known per se.

    So wird in der EP-A-147, 173 ein Schmelzspinnverfahren von thermoplastischen Polymeren beschrieben, bei dem das Polymere in einen unter Überdruck stehenden Spinnschacht extrudiert wird und innerhalb dieses Schachtes abgekühlt wird. Ferner wird eine angepaßte Vorrichtung zur Durchführung des Verfahrens beschrieben, die eine besonders ausgestaltete Austrittsöffnung für die verfestigten, mit hoher Geschwindigkeit abgezogene Filamente aufweist und mit der eine gute Abdichtung des Spinnschachtes erreicht werden kann. Die Vorrichtung und das Verfahren zielen vor allem auf die Herstellung eines hoch orientierten Multifilamentgarnes ab.For example, EP-A-147, 173 describes a melt spinning process of thermoplastic polymers, in which the polymer is extruded into a pressurized spinning shaft and is cooled within this shaft. Furthermore, an adapted device for carrying out the method is described, which has a specially designed outlet opening for the solidified filaments drawn off at high speed and with which a good sealing of the spinning shaft can be achieved. The device and the method are primarily aimed at producing a highly oriented multifilament yarn.

    In der EP-A-205,694 wird ein Schmelzspinnverfahren von thermoplastischen Polymeren beschrieben, bei dem das Polymere in einen unter Unterdruck von weniger als 0,7 atm stehenden Spinnschacht extrudiert wird und innerhalb dieses Schachtes abgekühlt wird. Die Vorrichtung zur Durchführung dieses Verfahrens betrifft im wesentlichen die aus der EP-A-147, 173 bekannte Vorrichtung, an deren Austrittsseite für das sich im Spinnschacht befindliche Gas eine Vakuumpumpe angeschlossen ist. In der Beschreibung ist erwähnt, daß von den ersponnenen Fäden abdampfende Monomere und Oligomere durch die Gasführung aus dem Spinnschacht entfernt werden, so daß Probleme mit sich im Spinnschacht ablagernden Rückständen vermieden werden können. Die Vorrichtung und das Verfahren zielen ebenfalls auf die Herstellung eines hoch orientierten Multifilamentgarnes ab. EP-A-205,694 describes a melt spinning process of thermoplastic polymers, in which the polymer is extruded into a spinning shaft which is under a vacuum of less than 0.7 atm and is cooled within this shaft. The device for carrying out this method essentially relates to the device known from EP-A-147, 173 , to whose outlet side a vacuum pump is connected for the gas located in the spinning shaft. In the description it is mentioned that monomers and oligomers evaporating from the spun threads are removed from the spinning shaft by the gas flow, so that problems with residues deposited in the spinning shaft can be avoided. The device and the method are also aimed at producing a highly oriented multifilament yarn.

    Beim Schmelzspinnen von Polymeren werden häufig störende Gase und/oder Dämpfe frei. Insbesondere beim Verspinnen von Polymeren enthaltend schwefelhaltige Bestandteile werden stark riechende und eventuell sogar gesundheitsschädliche Gase oder Dämpfe freigesetzt. Dieses Problem tritt besonders ausgeprägt beim Verspinnen von Multifilamenten auf, da diese infolge der hohen Oberfläche der schmelzflüssigen Kapillaren große Mengen solcher schädlichen Gase freisetzen.When melt spinning polymers are common interfering gases and / or vapors free. In particular when spinning polymers containing sulfur-containing Ingredients become strong smelling and possibly even harmful gases or vapors released. This problem is particularly pronounced when spinning multifilaments, as these result from the high surface of the molten capillaries release large quantities of such harmful gases.

    Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, beim Verspinnen von Polymeren auftretende störende Gase von der Umgebung fernzuhalten und zu beseitigen.The present invention is based on the object occurring when spinning polymers to keep disturbing gases away from the environment remove.

Dazu zählen beispielsweise der sogenannte "Spinnrauch" und insbesondere gas- und/ oder dampfförmige Bestandteile, die schwefelhaltige oder halogenhaltige, insbesondere chlorhaltige, oder schwefel- und halogenhaltige Komponenten enthalten. Zu den Polymeren, die diese letzteren gas- und/oder dampfförmigen Bestandteile abgeben, zählen schwefelhaltige Polymere, wie Polyarylensulfide oder Polymere, die vor oder während des Verspinnens mit halogen-und/oder schwefelhaltigen Zusätzen versehen worden sind.Under the term "fibers made of polymers that during disruptive gases and / or vapors from spinning such fibers are within the scope of this invention to understand those during melt spinning Gases and / or vapors released in the spinning shaft be escaping into the ambient air is not desired.

    Diese Austrittsöffnung muß daher so ausgestaltet sein, daß sie neben der hohen Durchtrittsgeschwindigkeit der gebildeten Filamente auch einen guten Abschluß gegen einen Austritt der verunreinigten Anblasluft im Inneren des Spinnschachtes gestattet.This outlet opening must therefore be designed in this way be that in addition to the high penetration speed the filaments formed also a good finish to prevent the contaminated blowing air from escaping allowed inside the spinning shaft.

    So läßt sich beispielsweise der frisch ersponnene Faden durch eine Labyrinthdichtung nach außen führen oder durch durchlochte Abschlußplatten, unter oder zwischen denen eine zusätzliche Hilfsabsaugung das mitgerissene Anblasgas absaugt.For example, the freshly spun one Pass the thread out through a labyrinth seal or through perforated end plates, under or between which an additional auxiliary suction sucked off entrained blowing gas.

    Der Spinnschacht kann mit Unterdruck, Außendruck oder Überdruck betrieben werden. Vorteilhafterweise wird im Spinnschacht ein geringer Unterdruck aufrechterhalten, vorzugsweise ein Unterdruck zwischen 20 und 150 Pa, gegen die Umgebung. Diese Variante verhindert bei Undichtigkeiten bzw. bei Druckschwankungen ein sofortiges Ausströmen der verunreinigten Anblasluft in die Umgebung.The spinning shaft can be operated with negative pressure, external pressure or positive pressure. Advantageously, a slight negative pressure is maintained in the spinning shaft, preferably a negative pressure between 20 and 150 Pa, against the environment. In the event of leaks or pressure fluctuations, this variant prevents the contaminated blowing air from escaping immediately into the environment.

    Die erzeugten Filamente werden nach dem Extrudieren durch die Spinndüse einer Zwangsabkühlung im Spinnschacht durch Anblasen mit einem Gas unterworfen. Dabei können alle an sich üblichen Verfahren des Anblasens zum Einsatz kommen. Neben der möglichen Queranblasung kommt insbesondere die zentrale Anblasung in Frage. Davon ist insbesondere die Anblasung von innen nach außen bevorzugt. Als Gas kann Inertgas, wie Stickstoff eingesetzt werden. Bevorzugt ist Luft.The filaments created are after extrusion through the spinneret of a forced cooling in Subjected to spinning shaft by blowing with a gas. All the usual methods of Blowing are used. In addition to the possible Cross-blowing comes especially the central blowing in question. The blowing is particularly important preferred from the inside out. As a gas can Inert gas, such as nitrogen. Is preferred Air.

    Die Spinnabzugsgeschwindigkeit der Filamente beim Verlassen des Spinnschachts kann mehr als 500 m/min betragen, vorzugsweise zwischen 800 und 5000 m/min, und insbesondere 1000 bis 2000 m/min.The spinning take-off speed of the filaments when leaving the spinning shaft can be more than 500 m / min, preferably between 800 and 5000 m / min, and in particular 1000 to 2000 m / min.

    Zweckmäßigerweise bringt man auf die Filamente beim Verlassen des Spinnschachtes eine übliche Verstreckpräparation auf. Dies kann kurz vor, während oder kurz nach dem Verlassen des Spinnschachtes erfolgen. Die Präparation kann aber auch anderen Stellen der Produktionsanlage aufgebracht werden. Das Aufbringen der Präparation kann mit allen dafür bekannten Mitteln erfolgen, beispielsweise durch Aufsprühen oder durch Aufbringen mit einer Präparationsrolle.Expediently you bring on the filaments a usual stretching preparation when leaving the spinning shaft on. This can happen just before, during or shortly after leaving the spinning shaft. The preparation can also be used in other areas of the body Production plant are applied.

    Das mit schwefelhaltigen Gasen und/oder Dämpfen beladene Anblasgas wird aus dem Spinnschacht über eine oder mehrere Abführleitungen einem Gasreinigungssystem zugeführt. Es hat sich gezeigt, daß die verbrauchte Anblasluft durch Kontakt mit einem Adsorptionsmittel für besagte störende Gase und/oder Dämpfe gereinigt werden muß.That with gases and / or vapors containing sulfur loaded blowing gas is over from the spinning shaft one or more discharge lines to a gas cleaning system fed. It has been shown that the used blowing air through contact with an adsorbent for said disruptive gases and / or vapors must be cleaned.

    Beispiele für geeignete Adsorptionsmittel sind Silicagel oder insbesondere Aktivkohle. Die Adsorptionsmittel werden bevorzugt in faßförmigen mit Zu- und Ableitung und vorzugsweise, dem erforderlichen Ventilator versehenen Gefäßen eingesetzt. Solche Gasreinigungssysteme sind im Handel in Modulbauweise erhältlich.Examples of suitable adsorbents are silica gel or in particular activated carbon. The adsorbents are preferably in barrel form with supply and discharge and preferably, the required Fan-provided vessels used. Such Gas cleaning systems are commercially available in modular construction available.

    Nach dem Verlassen des Spinnschachtes und gegebenenfalls dem Präparieren werden die ersponnenen Filamente in an sich bekannter Weise nachbehandelt. Dazu werden sie beispielsweise einer Avivierung, einer Verstreckung, die gegebenenfalls auch mehrstufig sein kann und gegebenenfalls einer Fixierung unterworfen. Die Nachbehandlung kann kontinuierlich direkt nach dem Abziehen aus der Spinnmaschine erfolgen oder nach einer Zwischenlagerung der frisch ersponnenen Filamente.After leaving the spinning shaft and if necessary the spun ones are prepared Filaments aftertreated in a manner known per se. For this purpose they become, for example, an avivation, Drawing, which may also be multi-stage can and if necessary subjected to a fixation. The aftertreatment can be continued immediately after take off from the spinning machine or after an intermediate storage of the freshly spun Filaments.
