A suede-like sheet material characterized by being formed of a base cloth and ultrafine fibers of a denier less than 0.5 per filament, said ultrafine fibers being entangled with each other and covering at least one surface of the base cloth, wherein a portion of said ultrafine fibers is stuffed into the gaps in the network of the base cloth, at least a portion of said ultrafine fibers being entangled with the component fibers of the base cloth, and said base cloth and ultrafine fibers being substantially integrated with each other.

Suede-like sheet materials of ultrafine fibers

An acrylic fiber having linen- or cotton-like feeling, dry feeling, a high hygroscopicity and a high water retentivity, which is characterized in that said fiber is covered on the outside with creases running along the fiber axis, adjacent creases being 0.1 to 5.mu. apart on the average; has in any of its cross-sections two or more macrovoids, 2.mu. or more in major diameter, which extend in the direction of fiber axis; and said fiber has 30 to 150 microcrimps per 25 mm of fiber length. A method for producing such a fiber is also disclosed.

Process for producing acrylic fiber

A sheet material is formed of a base cloth consisting of a woven fabric, knit fabric, nonwoven fabric, or web material having a favorable form stablity and a short fiber material consisting at least partly of a natural fiber material, said sheet material having a structure in which said base cloth is covered on at least one surface with the short fiber material and a part of the short fiber material is stuffed into the gaps in the network of the base cloth so that the base cloth and short fiber material are substantially integrated with each other.

Sheet material and method of producing the same

Suede-like sheet materials and method of producing the same

Regenerated cellulose fibers having very good flameproofness are obtained by adding a polyphosphonate having the following formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is ethylene or propylene; R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are methyl or ethyl which may be the same or different; R.sub.4 is an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or an aralkyl group in which the alkyl substituent has 1 to 4 carbon atoms and the hydrogen atoms in said alkyl and aralkyl groups may be substituted with chlorine or bromine; R.sub.5 is an aromatic group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms or an unsaturated or saturated aliphatic or alicyclic group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms or a combination thereof and R.sub.5 may contain carbonyl group, sulfonyl group or nitrogen; X is halogen, and n is an integer from 1 to 1000, to a viscose and then spinning the viscose by conventionally accepted procedures. The retention of the polyphosphonate flameproofing agent in the fibers can be markedly increased by this procedure.

A phosphorus-containing polymer having the formula: ##STR1## is produced by reacting a cyclic chlorophosphite compound having the formula ##STR2## a ketone compound having the formula ##STR3## and a triorganophoshite compound having the formula P(OR.sub.4).sub.3 in the presence of an active halide having the formula R.sub.5 -X wherein R.sub.1 is ethylene or propylene, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are methyl or ethyl and may be the same or different, R.sub.4 is an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or an aralkyl group in which the alkyl substituent has 1 to 4 carbon atoms and the hydrogen atoms in said alkyl and aralkyl groups may be substituted with chlorine or bromine, R.sub.5 is an unsaturated or saturated aliphatic, alicyclic or aromatic group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms or combinations thereof and R.sub.5 may contain a carbonyl group, sulfonyl group or nitrogen, X is a halogen, and n is an integer of from 1 to 1000.

Method for producing phosphorus-containing polymers

An apparatus for producing composite structure fibers is disclosed which includes an upper distribution plate provided with plural slits for making at least two spinning components into independent thin layer streams, a lower distribution plate provided with plural fine holes for dividing each of said thin layer streams into plural fine capillary streams independent from each other and a spinneret plate provided with a bundling space and extrusion orifices for bundling said previously divided fine capillary streams and extruding them into filaments, said upper distribution plate, lower distribution plate and spinneret plate being piled up in this order.
