Abstract: 1413356 Fibrids of thermoplastic materials BADISCHE ANILIN- & SODA-FABRIK AG 23 Feb 1973 [25 Feb 1972] 8938/73 Heading B5B Fibrids (i.e. short fibres) of a thermoplastics material are made by introducing a high-speed propulsive jet and a slower-moving stream of a liquid co-currently into a mixing tube arranged coaxially with the jet, whereby a shear gradient is set up in the mixing tube between the highspeed jet and the slower-moving liquid stream, and feeding the molten thermoplastics material through a die into the region of the shear gradient, whereby the thermoplastics material is broken up into fibres by the action of shear stresses within the region of the shear-gradient. Specified thermoplastics materials include polyethylene, polypropylene and their waxes and extended waxes, polyamides, polyesters, polyvinyl chloride and polystyrene. In Fig. 1, the apparatus is enclosed in container 4. Melt is supplied via 6 to outlet orifice 2; the spinning medium, suitably water, is supplied via 5 to the outlet orifice 1 of the propulsive jet; 3 is the impulse exchange chamber or mixing tube. If the relatively slow-moving stream of liquid entrained from the container is replaced by liquid coming from a pump, the container may be dispensed with, as in Fig. 2, where 7 is the feed-line for the slow-moving medium (water) spinning being effected in tube 3 which acts as impulse exchange chamber.

Abstract: Extruded plastic filaments (e.g. polyolefine) are passed from an extrusion nozzle into a high energy flow of auxiliary fluid (pref. water) whereby the filaments are split into short fibres (e.g. micro-fibres) by the shearing action of the auxiliary fluid flow. Pref. the filaments are extruded from nozzles surrounding a nozzle for the auxiliary fluid and pref. the nozzles are directed towards a cylindrical splitting chamber in which the high energy flow is produced and the filaments are split. The splitting chamber may be located in a main chamber filled with auxiliary fluid. The high energy flow may have a velocity of 37 m/sec and a pressure of 7 atm. The fibres produced are uniform, and high temp. heating of the auxiliary fluid and the use of solvents are eliminated resulting in a more economic process.
