Abstract:
THE PRESENT INVENTION RELATES TO A POLYAMIDE, AND A FIBER THEREOF, CONSISTING OF A NOVEL PARAXYLYLENE COPOLYAMIDE. MORE PARTICULARLY, THE INVENTION RELATES TO A POLYAMIDE FIBER CONSISTING OF A COPOLYAMIDE OF PARAXYLYLENE DIAMINE WITH TWO A-W DICARBOXYLIC ALKANES EACH HAVING 6-13 CARBON ATOMS AND DIFFERING FROM ONE ANOTHER IN THAT ONE OF SAID ACIDS HAS 1-2 CARBON ATOMS MORE THAN THE OTHER.
Abstract:
Permselective membranes are prepared by crosslinking synthetic organic polyamides or polyhydrazides having -CO2H groups and/or -SO3H groups with a salt of metal selected from the class consisting of alkaline earth metals, transition metals, aluminum group metals and lead group metals.

Nylon 6 filaments are produced which satisfy the following conditions:- #=35Œ5 degrees, and 0À50 # I M /I P # 0À89, where 8 is the angle formed by the meridian and the straight line drawn from the intersection of the meridian and the equator line toward the point indicating a maximum strength in the X-ray low-angle interference image; I P is the interference strength at the point indicating the maximum strength; and I M is the interference strength at the point where a straight line drawn parallel to the equator line from the point indicating the maximum strength intersects the meridian; and a relation between tenacity and breaking elongation is given by:-S x E # 207À0 and 15 #E # 35, where S is the tenacity of the filament in g./denier and E is the breaking elongation of the filament in per cent. Preferably S # 9À2. The method comprises melting nylon 6 chips having a relative viscosity over 2À9 with respect to sulphuric acid and extruding the melt through a spinneret to form filaments which are rapidly cooled to coagulate them, the filaments are then drawn successively in at least 3 stages at such a rate that in the early drawing stages no measurable birefringence is observed and in the later stages the filaments are drawn to the desired final drawing ratio. The time for cooling and coagulating to the start of the drawing process is preferably less than 10 seconds. Also during at least one intermediate drawing stage the content C 8 of the 8-form crystal structure of the filament should preferably be in the range 0À65 # C 8 # 0À90. The nylon 6 filaments can be used to make yarns for tyre cords.
Abstract:
An aggregate of a fibrous material used for a synthetic pulp is provided which essentially consists of a surface active agent for an emulsifier, a hydrophilic high molecular weight compound, a hydrophobic finely divided inorganic substance particle and an olefin polymer, said hydrophobic finely divided inorganic substance particle being effectively integrated with the polymer body of the fibrous material. Said aggregate is prepared by flushing, at at least 100.degree.C, an emulsion composed of the above-mentioned four ingredients and water and a solvent into an environment of a low pressure.

1,249,730. Copolyamide filaments. TORAY INDUSTRIES Inc. 14 Nov., 1969, No. 55990/69. Heading B5B. [Also in Division C3] Filaments are melt spun from a ternary copolyamide of hexamethylene adipamide (66), hexamethylene terephthalamide (6T) and hexamethylene isophthalamide (6I) having a composition within area ABCD of the figure, and are drawn at least 2 x (e.g. 2À5-7Î) at 60-200‹ C. to give filaments having a shrinkage of at least 15% (e.g. 15-40%) on boiling in water for 30 min. in the relaxed state and an initial Young's modulus of at least 30 gpd. (e.g. 30-60 gpd.) subsequent to said boiling. The filaments may be heat set at 150-220‹ C. either relaxed or under tension, a controlled degree of shrinkage optionally being allowed.
