Abstract
An improved polyester/polyamide composite fiber is provided. The composite fiber includes a polyamide component generally considered to lack compatibility with a polyester component. Advantageously, the composite fiber includes an adhesion-promoting polymer in an amount effective to provide adhesion of the polyamide component to the polyester component. The composite fiber beneficially provides strength and cost advantages.
