Abstract
Abstract In a process for manufacturing fast-spin highly oriented amorphous polyester filament yarns, the shock cooling is achieved by means of a rotating cooling surface formed by the contact surface of a cooling cylinder. Filament yarns having a desired boiling shrinkage up to 70% and a birefringence larger than 0.08 can be obtained by varying the duration of contact between the filament yarns and the cooling cylinder and/or the distance between the spinneret and the cooling cylinder.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
83 words
The method of producing a highly oriented amorphous polyester filament feeder yarn for false twist texturing having a boiling shrinkage of 40 to 70%, which comprises melt-spinning a polyester in a spinneret into yarn filaments, shock-cooling the melt-spun yarn filaments by bringing them in contact with a cooled rotating surface at a distance of 35 to 60 cm from the spinneret for 1×10 -3 to 1×10 -2 seconds, and winding the yarn on a bobbin at a speed of more than 4500 m/min.
