Drawing, especially cold-drawing, or hot-drawing, or other heat-treatments, of spin-oriented crystalline polyester filaments, and particularly polyester feed yarns, that have been prepared by spinning at speeds of, e.g., 4 km/min, and have low shrinkage and no natural draw ratio in the conventional sense, provides useful technique for obtaining uniform filaments of desired denier and thereby provides improved flexibility to obtain filaments and yarns mixed with nylon filaments.

Mixed filament yarn of polyester filaments and nylon filaments

Drawing, especially cold-drawing, or hot-drawing or other heat-treatments of spin-oriented crystalline polyester filaments, and particularly polyester feed yarns, that have been prepared by spinning at speeds of, e.g., 4 kg/min, and have low shrinkage and no natural draw ratio in the conventional sense, provides useful technique for obtaining uniform drawn filaments of desired denier and thereby provides improved flexibility to obtain filaments and yarns of various denier. The resulting uniform filaments have useful properties that are improved in certain respects.

Polyester filaments, yarns and tows

Air-jet texturing with drawing, especially cold-drawing, or hot-drawing or other heat-treatments of spin-oriented crystalline polyester filaments, and particularly polyester feed yarns, that have been prepared by spinning at speeds of, e.g., 4 km/min, and have low shrinkage and no natural draw ratio in the conventional sense, provides useful technique for obtaining uniform drawn filaments of desired denier and thereby provides improved flexibility to obtain air-jet textured filaments and yarns of various denier. The resulting yarns have useful properties that are improved in certain respects.

Method of making improved polyester filaments, yarns and tows

Process for improving the properties of a feed yarn of undrawn polyester

A process of making mixed filament yarns, involving drawing, especially cold-drawing, or hot-drawing, or other heat-treatments, of spin-oriented crystalline polyester filaments, and particularly polyester feed yarns, that have been prepared by spinning at speeds of, e.g., 4 km/min, and have low shrinkage and no natural draw ratio in the conventional sense, that provides useful technique for obtaining uniform filaments of desired denier and thereby provides improved flexibility to obtain filaments and yarns mixed with nylon filaments.

Process of making mixed filament yarn

A process of making mixed shrinkage yarn, including drawing, especially cold-drawing, or hot-drawing or other heat-treatments of spin-oriented crystalline polyester filaments, and particularly polyester feed yarns, that have been prepared by spinning at speeds of, e.g., 4 km/min, and have low shrinkage and no natural draw ratio in the conventional sense, that provides useful technique for obtaining uniform drawn filaments of desired denier and of differential shrinkage, and thereby provides improved flexibility to obtain filaments and yarns of mixed shrinkage.

Process of making mixed shrinkage yarn

Drawing, especially cold-drawing, or hot-drawing or other heat-treatments of spin-oriented crystalline polyester filaments, and particularly polyester feed yarns, that have been prepared by spinning at speeds of, e.g., 4 km/min, and have low shrinkage and no natural draw ratio in the conventional sense, provides useful technique for obtaining uniform drawn filaments of desired denier and thereby provides improved flexibility to obtain filaments and yarns of various sub-deniers.
