Modification of nylon 6 by organochlorosilanes. I. Chemical reaction

摘要

AbstractThe reaction of nylon 6 with dimethyldichlorosilane and vinylmethyldichlorosilane was investigated. Bright, 20‐denier monofilament, nylon 6 yarns with 12.83 nitrogen, 61.16 carbon, and 10.16 hydrogen content were taken. Benzene or toluene was used as solvent for the reagents. The extent of reaction was estimated from the increase in weight of the parent yarn. Reaction was carried in the presence of nitrogen or in atmospheric oxygen (air). The per cent weight gain increased with increase in concentration of reagents, time, and temperature of the reaction. Viscosity and dyeability of the modified samples were measured, and in some samples the percentage of carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen was also determine
