Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a PVA fiber having high strength and high initial modulus by subjecting a spinning dope of PVA to dry and wet spinning using a specific spinneret and drawing the spun yarn. CONSTITUTION:A spinning dope prepared by dissolving PVA having 1500-7000, preferably 4500-7000 polymerization degree in a solvent (preferably DMSO or water) is subjected to dry and wet spinning using a spinneret having discharge holes having shape projected to the outlet side of spinning dope. The resultant undrawn yarn is drawn to provide the aimed fiber having >=13g/d tensile strength, >=300g/d initial modulus and 10-100 denier single fiber fineness.

Conventionally, many proposals have been made regarding methods for improving the strength and initial elastic modulus of PVA fibers. For example,
No. 9-130314 discloses a method in which a glycerin solution of ultra-high polymerization degree PVA having a molecular weight of 500,000 or more is gel-spun, and the resulting undrawn yarn is stretched approximately 20 times.

However, with this method, not only is it difficult to commercially obtain ultra-high polymerization degree PVA, but also such ultra-high polymerization degree PVA has poor spinnability because the solution viscosity becomes too high when dissolved in a solvent. However, in order to improve spinnability, it is necessary to lower the polymer concentration, which has the disadvantage of low productivity.

A method is disclosed in which dry/wet spinning or gel spinning is performed so that the draft is 0.05 to 1.0, and the resulting undrawn yarn is stretched 20 times or more.

(However, Vo is the linear velocity of the discharged yarn when it is discharged from the spinneret + V l is the spinning take-off speed.) However, in these methods, the spinning draft cannot be reduced to 1 or less by increasing the discharge linear velocity. The diameter of the discharge hole is set to 0.08
It must be extremely thin, such as mm.
Not only is it difficult to manufacture a spinneret, but only fine denier fibers with a single filament fineness of 10 denier or less can be obtained. In fact, as stated in the above publication (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 61-215711), it is considered essential to keep the single yarn fineness to 5 denier or less in order to obtain a PVA fiber with high strength and high initial elastic modulus. manufactured from PVA with a commercially acceptable degree of polymerization. High-strength, high-initial-modulus PVA fibers with a single fiber fineness of 10 deniers or more have never been known.

That is, asbestos, which was conventionally used for reinforcing cement and concrete, was found to be carcinogenic, so PVA fibers began to be used instead. However, the single yarn fineness currently used is 1O

In the method of dry/wet spinning or gel spinning a PVA-DMSO solution or PVA-glycerin solution and stretching the resulting undrawn yarn by 20 times or more, only fine denier fibers of less than 10 denier can be obtained, which is difficult to obtain on the market. It has not been possible to provide high strength and high initial elastic modulus PVA fibers with a single filament fineness of 10 denier or more, which is in high demand.

In the present invention, a spinning stock solution prepared by dissolving PVA in the above solvent is dry/wet-spun using a spinneret having one or more discharge holes to form an undrawn yarn. In this case, as shown in FIG. 1, it is possible to achieve the object of the present invention by using a spinneret having a discharge hole 1 in which, for example, a cylindrical thin tube is embedded and is formed to protrude toward the outlet side of the spinning dope. This is extremely important, and the protrusion length of the discharge hole is preferably 1 to 20 mm.

That is, it is used in normal dry spinning or wet spinning. When a spinneret as shown in FIG. 2 in which the discharge hole 2 does not protrude toward the spinning dope exit side is used, a phenomenon occurs in which the spinning dope becomes hemispherical at the outlet of the discharge hole and adheres to the spinneret. In such a state, it is difficult to start spinning, and even if spinning could be started, the resulting fibers would have large unevenness in fineness and would not be suitable for practical use on the sole.

Although this phenomenon can be prevented by reducing the diameter of the spinning hole and increasing the linear discharge speed,
In dry/wet spinning (A), the solvent is extracted by passing the gelled yarn through another solvent, so increasing the thread speed increases the resistance that the yarn receives, so the thread speed is It can only go up to several tens of meters per minute at most. Therefore, there is a certain limit to increasing the ejection linear velocity in order to reduce the draft. Further, reducing the diameter of the discharge hole is disadvantageous because it increases the difficulty in manufacturing the spinneret and increases the cost of production equipment. What is more important is that as the diameter of the discharge hole becomes smaller, the fineness of the resulting fibers naturally becomes smaller.In fact, in a method using such a spinneret, the single fiber fineness is 10 As described above, PVAm fibers having high strength and high initial elastic modulus have not been obtained.

However, surprisingly, when a spinneret having a discharge hole protruding from the spinning dope exit side was used.

Even if the linear discharge speed is lowered, the spinning stock solution does not become hemispherical at the outlet of the discharge hole and adhere to the spinneret.

Not only is it possible to perform stable spinning, but it is also possible to obtain PVΔ fibers with a single fiber fineness of 10 deniers or more, high strength, and high initial elastic modulus, which was previously unachievable.

Note that the spinneret used in the present invention is one in which a discharge hole projects toward the spinning dope exit side.

Although the discharge hole may be formed integrally or the discharge hole may be formed by embedding a cylindrical thin tube, the latter is preferable for the following reason.

That is, if the discharge hole is formed of a cylindrical thin tube, a discharge hole with a large length/diameter value can be easily obtained, and if a spinneret having a discharge hole with the above-mentioned large value is used, the spinning dope can be formed in the discharge hole. This is because sufficient shearing force is applied to the PVA molecular chains inside, and the shearing force disentangles the PVA molecular chains, forming an unstretched structure with less entanglement.

The discharged spinning stock solution is introduced into a coagulation bath through an inert atmosphere layer, and a coagulated thread is formed. In the present invention,
In order to improve the uniformity of the yarn, the spinning draft is preferably 1 to IO. Further, as the coagulation bath, alcohols such as methanol and ethanol, and ketones such as acetone can be used, and methanol is particularly preferably used.

Note that in the present invention, other processes such as dry smoke treatment, oil treatment, etc. may be appropriately introduced between the dry/wet spinning process and the stretching process, if necessary.

There are nine different stretching methods that can be applied; for example, a method of stretching the undrawn yarn while it is in contact with a heating body such as a heat plate, a method of stretching in a heating medium, and a method of stretching using a dielectric heating method. Examples include methods. In these methods, stretching can be carried out in one stage or in multiple stages of two or more stages, but it is preferable to stretch in multiple stages of two stages J-. Also,
In the case of multistage stretching, moisture application, oil application, etc. may be performed between the nth stage stretching and the (n+1)th stage stretching (n is an integer of 1 or more).

When dry and wet spinning was carried out under the same conditions as in Examples 1 and 2 except that 10-karat gold spinning material with no protruding discharge holes was used, a phenomenon in which the spinning stock solution adhered to the spinneret surface in a hemispherical shape occurred in each case. Stable spinning was difficult, and it was not possible to collect enough undrawn yarn for drawing.
