International Classification:
D01F 600
US Classification:
428398, 428397, 428376, 428 92
Abstract:
A synthetic polymer filament is characterized by a four-sided void that extends centrally and axially through the filament. Each apex of the void extends toward the approximate midpoint of one side of the exterior configuration of the filament. The four-sided void has a modification ratio in the range from about 1. 2 to about 2. 0 and occupies from about five percent 5% to about thirty percent 30% of the cross sectional area of the filament. A spinneret plate for producing the thermoplastic synthetic polymer filament has a cluster of four orifices centered about a central point. Each orifice includes a generally isosceles triangle-shaped major portion from which extends a pair of legs, each leg of one orifice being spaced from the leg of an adjacent orifice to define a gap therebetween.

US Classification:
008115510
Abstract:
A method of manufacture of a rapid dyeing, deep dyeing, open structure polyamide yarn and to the yarn and to a fabric produced from the yarn includes the step of applying an aqueous finish to substantially all of the rapid dyeing, deep dyeing, open structure polyamide filaments. The aqueous finish consists essentially of a fluorosurfactant dissolved in water that is applied to bulked continuous filament yarn at an effective concentration level of preferably 150 to 600 parts per million by weight of flourine on yarn. The aqueous fluorosurfactant finish is applied at a point after texturizing and before windup.
Filament Having A Trilobal Cross-Section And A Trilobal Void

International Classification:
D02G 200
US Classification:
428397
Abstract:
A synthetic polymer filament is characterized by a trilobal void that extends centrally and axially through the filament. Each apex of the void extends toward the approximate midpoint of one side of the exterior configuration of the filament. The trilobal void has a modification ratio in the range from about 1. 4 to about 3. 0 and occupies from about five percent (5%) to about thirty percent (30%) of the cross sectional area of the filament. At a given constant void percentage a decrease of modification ratio increases the degree of sparkle. A spinneret plate for producing the thermoplastic synthetic polymer filament has a cluster of three generally arrow-shaped orifices centered about a central point. Each orifice is defined by a first and a second outer leg joined together at a pointed end directed away from a central point of the cluster. Each orifice has a central leg extending from the jointure of the outer legs toward the central point of the cluster.
Process For Preparing Low Denier Filaments With High Elongation And Those Filaments

International Classification:
D07G 300
US Classification:
428373
Abstract:
Fine denier filaments having a high elongation at break of a blend polypropylene and polystyrene are made by forming an intimate blend using a twin screw extruder and then spinning the blend.
