PRODUCING DRAWN OR UNDRAWN FLAME-RESISTANT AND ANTI-FUSING CURED PHENOLIC CONTINUOUS FILAMENTS

摘要

A process for producing a drawn or undrawn flame-resistant and anti-fusing cured phenolic continuous filament which comprises melt-spining an uncured novolak resin which may contain a fiber-forming thermoplastic synthetic resin and then curing the melt-spun filament with a curing agent in the presence of a catalyst; characterized by pre-curing the melt-spun filament with an aldehyde as a curing agent in the presence of an acid catalyst, and then curing the pre-cured filament with an aldehyde in the presence of a basic catalyst.
