Latest Patents
Satoru Takeuchi holds a patent for an "Acrylic based composite fiber and method for production thereof, and fiber composite using the same." The objective of this invention is to provide an acrylonitrile-based composite fiber that offers a unique feel compared to ordinary cellulose acetate fiber, cellulose fiber, and acrylic fiber. This composite fiber boasts excellent spinability, fiber properties, and processability in yarn spinning. Notably, it also features a deodorizing function and moisture-absorbing and retaining properties. The composite fiber consists of 10 to 40% by weight of cellulose acetate and/or cellulose and 60 to 90% by weight of an acrylonitrile-based polymer. Its structure allows for the cellulose acetate and/or cellulose to form an island component in a cross-section perpendicular to the fiber axis, while the acrylonitrile-based polymer forms a sea component.
