The screen gauze made of only the melt-anisotropic polyester fiber has no problem in strength and elastic modulus, however, since it is a rigid polymer, the surface is easily fibrillated, and the weaving process is performed. The fibrils generated in step (1) hindered the permeability of the ink and hindered high-precision printing, and thus could not be put to practical use. It has also been proposed to use sea-island fibers having melt anisotropic polyester as an island component and polyethylene terephthalate as a sea component, but the strength of such fibers is about 12 g / d, It was not satisfactory in terms of performance. Further, JP-A-3-220340 discloses a screen gauze using a core-sheath type conjugate fiber having a melt anisotropic polyester as a core component and a flexible polymer as a sheath component. In order to increase the strength of the fiber, it is necessary to reduce the ratio of the sheath component as much as possible, and the eccentricity at the time of production causes exposure of the core, and production on an operation scale was extremely difficult. In addition, since the flexible polymer of the sheath component is not stretched (not oriented and crystallized), it is very brittle, and there is a problem that the sheath is easily peeled or dropped.

The sheath component ratio in the composite fiber of the present invention is 0.1.
3 to 0.6. In the case of ordinary core-sheath type composite fibers, the sheath component hardly contributes to the strength, so that in order to obtain a high-strength fiber, the sheath component ratio has to be reduced. For this reason, the sheath component was peeled off during abrasion or the weaving process, or the core component was exposed to cause fibrillation, which was a cause of trouble. According to the present invention, since the sheath component also contributes to the improvement in the strength, even when the sheath component ratio is increased, it is possible to obtain an excellent composite fiber having a strength of 15 g / d or more. When the sheath component ratio is less than 0.25, the core is easily exposed,
If it exceeds 0.75, the strength will be insufficient. In addition, the sheath component ratio referred to in the present invention refers to the cross-sectional area ratio A / (A
+ B + C). The cross-sectional area ratio can be determined from a micrograph of the cross-section of the fiber, but can also be determined from the volume ratio of the discharge amount of the core component and the sheath component during production.

[0016] The melt-anisotropic polyester fiber can provide excellent performance without drawing, but the undrawn yarn made of a flexible polymer is in an unoriented state, and its physical properties are extremely poor.
The strength and the like were extremely low. Further, the flexible polymer has a problem that it has low adhesion to the melt anisotropic polyester and is easily peeled off. In view of the above, the present invention increases the strength of the sheath component and simultaneously improves the adhesiveness with the core component by configuring the sheath component with a blend (sea-island component) composed of a melt-anisotropic polyester and a flexible polymer. It is to try to raise it. The sheath component of the core-sheath conjugate fiber of the present invention has a sea-island structure. The sea-island structure means a state in which tens to hundreds of islands are present in a sea component serving as a matrix in a fiber cross section. The number of islands can be adjusted by changing the mixing ratio, melt viscosity, and the like of the B polymer and the C polymer. It is obtained by chip blending the B polymer and the C polymer, or by mixing a melt of both components with a static mixer or the like.

The island component ratio in the sheath component is 0.25 to 0.25 in the cross-sectional area ratio C / (B + C) of the produced sheath-type composite fiber.
It must be 0.5. If it is less than 0.25, the strength may be insufficient. If it exceeds 0.5, the fibril resistance may be insufficient because the melt anisotropic polyester (C) is easily exposed on the fiber surface. In some cases, the island component and the sea component are reversed. The island component ratio is
It can be determined from the micrograph of the cross section of the fiber, but can also be determined from the volume ratio of the discharge amount of the core component and the sheath component during production. The diameter of the island component is preferably about 0.1 to 2 μm.

The core-sheath type conjugate fiber of the present invention has a high strength and a high elastic modulus and is excellent in fibril resistance, so that it can have a high tension, and has good elastic recovery and dimensional stability. The application of gauze used for thin metal wires to applications is sufficiently possible. When the monofilament has an average wire diameter of 5 to 70 μm, particularly an average wire diameter of 35 μm or less, the effect of the present invention can be more remarkably obtained. When a high-density screen of 350 mesh or more using such fibers is made of polyethylene terephthalate fiber or the like, it is easily cut by a slight abnormal tension in the weaving process, or stretched by tension due to a small elastic modulus. Problems arise. Therefore, 400
Stainless steel wires were used for gauze of mesh size or more, but stainless steel wires were inadequate for large substrates due to poor elastic recovery, causing high cost. Since the composite fiber of the present invention has a high strength of about 155 g or more at about 30 μm, it is possible to produce a high-density screen and a large-sized substrate. When the strength is less than 15 g / d and the elastic modulus is less than 400 g / d, it becomes extremely difficult to provide a high-density screen of 400 mesh or more or a large substrate. Strength 18g / d
As described above, fibers having an elastic modulus of 500 g / d or more are more preferable.
A fabric such as a woven fabric mixed with other fibers may be used as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. The screen gauze obtained according to the present invention can stably perform fine and clear printing in the field of screen printing such as pattern printing, character printing, intaglio printing or color printing. .

EXAMPLES The present invention will be described below in detail with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto. [Melt viscosity MV] It was measured using Toyo Seiki Capillograph Model 1B under the conditions of 300 ° C. and shear rate r = 1000 sec −1 . [Logarithmic viscosity ηinh] Convert sample to pentafluorophenol
0.1% by weight was dissolved (60-80 ° C), and the relative viscosity (ηrel) was measured using an Upperod viscometer in a thermostat at 60 ° C.
ηinh = ln (ηrel) / c. Here, c is the polymer concentration (g / dl). [Strength] According to JIS L 1013, the elongation at break was determined under the conditions of a test length of 20 cm, an initial load of 0.1 g / d, and a tensile speed of 10 cm / min, and an average value of 5 points or more was adopted. [Line diameter variation%] Using an outer diameter measuring device M-4609A / 2 manufactured by ZIMMER, the wire diameter of a filament having a length of 100 m was continuously recorded at a yarn speed of 20 m / min, and the maximum (max) and minimum (min) were recorded. And the average value (x) was measured and determined by the following equation. Wire diameter variation (%) = ± ((max−min) / 2x) × 100 The larger the wire diameter variation, the more the sheath component is peeled or dropped. [Guide wear] Six monofilaments were passed through each of three comb guides arranged at an angle of 120 degrees using an embracing force tester manufactured by Daiei Scientific Instruments, and a load of 1 g / d was applied to each filament. A reciprocating motion was applied at a stroke length of 3 cm and a speed of 95 times / minute, and the number of fluffs (peeling, fibrillation) was measured.

The conjugate fiber of the present invention was excellent in strength and elastic modulus, had a wire diameter variation of less than 4%, and did not substantially peel off or fall off the sheath component and the core component. Screen
There was no problem in the production process of the ginseng, and a product with excellent performance was obtained. On the other hand, Comparative Example 2 has good strength, elastic modulus, and variation in wire diameter, but has a large island component ratio and a large amount of melt-anisotropic polyester exposed on the fiber surface, and thus has low fibril resistance due to guide wear. Met. In Comparative Example 3, a fiber having a low strength was obtained because the sheath component ratio was large.
Screen gauze was manufactured using such fibers, but a yarn breakage problem occurred in the weaving process.
