Features of Formation of a Multifilament Yarn from Crystallizing and Amorphic High-Heat Resistant Thermoplastics

摘要

In laboratory conditions, the molding process was simulated by extrusion of a multifilament yarn with a diameter of the monofilament equal 250-350 μm from high performance plastics. The possibility of obtaining a microfilament bundle of polyetheretherketone, polyphenylene sulfide and polyetherimide using a specially made forming head is shown. The technological modes of extrusion have been worked out, which makes it possible to obtain thermoplasticfibers from thestudied thermoplastics. It was revealed that the obtained microfilaments can be subjected to post-processing by cold drawing to reduce their diameter by 40-70 %.
