It is an object of the present invention to provide a hybrid dip cord consisting of rayon yarn and lyocell yarn to apply to the carcass ply or cap ply (belt reinforced layer) of pneumatic radial tire used in a car and a radial tire using the same. And also, according to the present invent the hybrid dip cord and the radial tire for application to the carcass ply or cap ply (belt reinforced layer) of pneumatic radial tire used in cars are produced by means of the following steps; imparting S direction twist of 20 to 200 TPM yarn number to one rayon yarn to produce a pre-yarn, imparting twist to said one rayon pre-yarn and one non-twisted lyocell respectively to produce a ply twist yarn, and imparting cable twist to two ply of ply twist yarn made from combination of said ply twist yarn or impart cable twist to a ply twist yarn to be produced by regulating low the twist number of one lyocell yarn and the rayon yarn to one lyocell as 20 to 200 TPM when the ply twist processes.

The present invention relates to a high tenacity polyethylene naphthalate fiber containing a silica compound. This fiber is produced by a method comprising the steps of: (A) melt-spinning a solid phase-polymerized polyethylene-2,6-naphthalate chip containing ethylene-2,6-naphthalate units at more than 85 mole % and a silica compound and having an intrinsic viscosity of 0.70-1.20, to produce a melt-spun yarn; (B) passing the melt-spun yarn through a retarded cooling zone and a cooling zone to solidify the yarn; (C) withdrawing the yarn at such a speed that the undrawn yarn has a birefringence of 0.001-0.1; and (D) subjecting the undrawn yarn to multi-stage drawing at a total draw ratio of at least 1.5 and a drawing temperature of 50-250&#xb0; C. The polyethylene naphthalate fiber has improved physical properties, such as high tenacity, and a dipped cord produced from this fiber has excellent dimensional stability and tenacity such that it can be advantageously employed as a reinforcement material of rubber products.
