Notes:
From an industrial point of view, it is effective to have a relation between process conditions and resulting product properties. In practice there are many possible process conditions, whereas properties are generally interrelated in a complex way. Thus, there is a strong need for a physical understanding of the product properties in terms of process settings. This comprehension should also allow one to predict possible consequences for the properties when new process conditions become available. To obtain that physical understanding for the development of production processes of PET yarns, use has been made of a simple two-phase model of crystalline and amorphous regions. As process parameters the spinning speed and the drawing temperature were chosen. As the drawing temperatures are only known as machine-setting values, they are simply referred to as “low” and “high.” As mechanical properties the shrinkage, modulus, tenacity, and dynamic mechanical behavior are discussed.
