Notes:
Spinning speed is one of the most important process parameters for change in properties of yarn and efficiency of polyester production. In this paper the effect of spinning speed (3000-6200 ypm) on dynamic mechanical properties is presented, and shows a good qualitative picture on the influence of structure change on the dynamic modulus and the height and position of glass transition peak on POY (partially oriented polyester) and PTY (draw-textured polyester) yarns. The dynamic moduli of POY yarns in a temperature range of 25-160°C are increased with increasing spinning speed. Large glass transition peaks (α peak) are observed for POY yarn spun at 3000 and 2800 ypm at about 98°C. This indicates that the yarns are low oriented with low crystallinity (5-6%). But the Tg of POY spun at 5600 or 6200 ypm is about 125°C and shows about 35% crystallinity with high amorphous orientation. An approximately linear relation was found between the height of the loss peak (tan δ) and the degree of amorphous orientation (fa) by using these analyses.
