Abstract
Abstract Disclosed herein are a polyamide filament comprising a polyamide resin composition which comprises an aromatic polyamide resin (A) produced by polymerizing a monomer containing not less than 85 wt % of an aromatic polyamide component composed of terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid and aliphatic diamine, and an aliphatic polyamide resin (B), and having a heat-shrinkage in boiling water of not less than 20%, and a process for producing the same.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
131 words
A polyamide filament comprising a mixture of aromatic and aliphatic polyamide resins, said mixture comprising an aromatic polyamide resin (A) produced by polymerizing a monomer mixture comprising not less than 85 wt % of an aromatic polyamide component composed of terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid and aliphatic diamine, and an aliphatic polyamide resin (B) selected from the group consisting of nylon 6 and a copolymer which is mainly composed of nylon 6, the ratio of said terephthalic acid to said isophthalic acid in said monomer mixture ranging from about 1:1.5 to 1:3 the ratio of said aromatic polyamide resin (A) to said aliphatic polyamide resin (B) in said mixture ranging from about 5:95 to about 50:50 by weight ratio; and said filament exhibiting heat-shrinkage in boiling water of not less than 20%.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
131 words
