Abstract
Abstract This invention is a method for manufacturing polyester fibers with good adhesion to rubber, characterized in that in the process of making the filaments, a filament-making oil (spin finish) containing epoxy, blocked isocyanate, and polyoxyalkylene amine compounds is added to the polyester fibers, and they are then heat-treated.
