A method of treating a subterranean formation at temperatures of at least 150&#xb0; C., the method includes introducing a pressurized fracturing liquid including proppants and solid channelants to create fractures in the subterranean formation, wherein the channelants include (PLA) solids derived from a blend of poly L-lactic acid (PLLA) and poly D-lactic acid (PDLA).

Method for treating a subterranean formation

A method is provided for spinning a multifilament thread from a thermoplastic material, including the steps of extruding the melted material through a spinneret with a plurality of spinneret holes into a filament bundle with a plurality of filaments, winding the filaments as thread after solidifying, and cooling the filament bundle beneath the spinneret, whereby in a first cooling zone the gaseous cooling medium is directed in such a way that it flows through the filament bundle transversely, the cooling medium leaving the filament bundle practically completely on the side opposite the inflow side, and in a second cooling zone beneath the first cooling zone, the filament bundle being cooled further essentially through self-suction of the gaseous cooling medium surrounding the filament bundle.

Spinning method

The present invention relates to a process for producing a polyphenylene sulfide multifilament yarn, a polyphenylene sulfide multifilament yarn and the use of a polyphenylene sulfide multifilament yarn. The process for producing a polyphenylene sulfide multifilament yarn is characterized in that only after time period between 0.1 sec and 0.3 sec after leaving the spinneret the filaments of the spun yarn are subjected to an active cooling stage. The Polyphenylene sulfide multifilament yarn having a filament linear density of 5 dtex to 30 dtex, an overall linear density of 500 dtex to 2500 dtex, a breaking tenacity in the range of 50 cN/tex to 80 cN/tex and an elongation at break of 8% to 16% for a yarn with a breaking tenacity in the range of 60 cN/tex to 80 cN/tex and an elongation at break of 16% to 30% for a yarn with a breaking tenacity in the range of 50 cN/tex to 60 cN/tex.

Process for producing polyphenylene sulfide filament yarns

A method for spinning a multifilament yarn from a thermoplastic material, where the filament bundle is cooled below the spinneret in a first cooling zone, first of all by means of at least one transverse blowing operation with a gaseous cooling medium and by means of an extraction means for the gaseous cooling medium which lies opposite said transverse blowing means, and subsequently the filament bundle is cooled further in a second cooling zone below the first cooling zone by automatic suction of gaseous cooling medium which is situated in the vicinity of the filament bundle.

A method is provided for simultaneous spin-drawing of continuous yarns consisting of one or more filaments, comprising the steps in which a melt of a thermoplastic material is fed to a spinning device, the melt is extruded through a spinneret by means of extrusion openings with the formation of continuous yarns, the continuous yarns are cooled by feeding them through a first and a second cooling zone, wherein the continuous yarns are cooled essentially by a stream of air on passing through the first cooling zone and essentially by a fluid, consisting wholly or partly of a component that is liquid at room temperature, on passing through the second cooling zone, and the continuous yarns are then dried, subsequently drawn and wound up by means of winding devices, the method being distinguished in that the continuous yarns are fed through the first and second cooling zones at a speed of up to 500 m/min and that the residence time of the continuous yarns within the first cooling zone is at least 0.1 sec.
