的である。2. Description of the Related Art PVA-based fibers have the highest strength and the highest initial elastic modulus among general-purpose fibers, and are therefore widely used as rubber-reinforcing fibers and cement-reinforcing fibers.
The PVA fiber is a so-called wet spinning method in which an aqueous solution of PVA is spun in a coagulation bath containing a caustic alkali or an inorganic salt from a spinneret arranged in the coagulation bath, or a hydrous PVA.
Is generally melted in a melt extruder, and is generally produced by a dry spinning method in which it is extruded from a spinneret into heated air.

未延伸糸を高倍率に延伸するものである。However, the strength and elastic modulus of the fibers obtained by these methods are much lower than the theoretically predicted values, and various attempts have been made to increase the strength and elastic modulus. There is. For example, the so-called gel spinning method that has been successful in polyethylene is the PVA
The method described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 63-165509 can be cited as an example applied to the above. In this method, a spinning dope prepared by dissolving PVA in a solvent is dry-wet spun through an inert atmosphere layer (air gap) in a cooling bath or a coagulation bath, and the obtained unstretched yarn is stretched at a high draw ratio. It is a thing.

明かとなった。The inventors of the present invention conducted a detailed study on the dry-wet spinning method, and as a result, a high draft was obtained by applying a high draft to the spinning stock solution flow in the air gap portion and performing spinning in a state of high elongation deformation. It was found that in the Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) No. 210013/1990, a submerged roll is provided in the coagulation bath immediately below the spinneret, and this roll is rotated to take up the yarn, thereby increasing the spinning stock solution flow. Proposed a way to draft. However, as a result of further study, this method has a limit in the maximum draft rate given by using the submerged roll, and there is a problem that the yarn is wound around the roll when the single yarn is cut. It became clear.

くは10v以上である。The spinning stock solution fine stream discharged from the spinneret is subjected to a coagulation action by the coagulation liquid, and coagulation proceeds from the surface to become a solidified yarn. In the present invention, it is extremely important that the solidified yarn is taken up by the high-speed liquid flow having an average flow velocity of 5 v or more formed in the coagulation bath. That is, the solidified yarn is subjected to a tensile stress by being taken up by the high-speed liquid flow, and this stress propagates in the yarn toward the spinneret, leading to a narrow stream of the spinning dope in the inert atmosphere layer. Therefore, the generated strong tensile stress acts to strongly stretch the spinning liquid dope. By this extension, the molecular chains in the spinning dope trickle slip with each other, the existing entanglement is unraveled, and the orientation is enhanced. If the speed of the high-speed liquid flow is less than 5 v, the draft is low and the object of the present invention cannot be achieved. The velocity of the high-speed liquid flow is preferably 7 v or higher, more preferably 10 v or higher.

部から下部に向かって走行する。In FIG. 1, 1 is a spinneret, 2 is a spinning stock solution supply pipe, and 3 is an aspirator. FIG. 2 is a partial sectional view of the aspirator 3. The aspirator 3 is composed of an inner cylinder 4 and an outer cylinder 5, and the inner cylinder has a slit 6
Is provided. The slit 6 is formed so as to form an incident angle θ toward the central axis of the inner cylinder 4, so that the liquid ejected from the slit 6 flows through the inner cylinder 4 from the upper part to the lower part in the figure. Yes, this creates a negative pressure. In the example of FIG. 2, the slit is used to form the negative pressure, but instead of the slit, a desired number of holes facing the central axis of the inner cylinder 4 may be provided. The outer cylinder 5 is provided with an introduction hole 7 for supplying a fluid. The yarn is taken up by the high-speed liquid flow caused by the negative pressure formed in the inner cylinder 4 of the aspirator 3, and travels in the inner cylinder 4 from the upper part to the lower part in the figure.

易であり、取扱いも簡便で好ましい。The flow velocity of the high-speed liquid flow can be freely set by appropriately adjusting the inner diameter of the inner cylinder, the width of the slit, the incident angle of the slit, and the supply amount of the fluid, but the object of the present invention is achieved. In order to achieve this, it is necessary to set the flow rate of the stock solution for spinning at 5 times or more the discharge linear velocity v at the spinneret. The size of the aspirator is not particularly limited as long as such a liquid flow is formed, but the inner cylinder has an inner diameter of 3 to 15 mm, the outer cylinder has an outer diameter of 25 to 70 mm, and the inner cylinder has a slit. It is preferable that the lower part has a length of about 50 to 200 mm because it is easy to manufacture and easy to handle.

で好ましくない。The introduction hole 7 may be attached at any position of the outer cylinder, but if it is attached in the tangential direction of the outer circumference of the outer cylinder, a swirling flow is generated inside and the negative pressure formed can be strengthened. The installation position of the aspirator is not particularly limited,
It is preferable to install it immediately below the spinneret at a depth of 3 to 50 cm from the surface of the coagulation bath. If the installation position is too shallow, the yarn converging angle in the outer peripheral portion of the spinneret becomes too large, and if it is too deep, the effect of the high-speed liquid flow becomes difficult to propagate to the air gap portion, which is not preferable.

開口部が凝固液13内に位置するように配設されている。In FIG. 3, 8 is a down-flow spinning cylinder, and 9 is a first spinning cylinder.
It is a coagulation bath. The down-flow spinning cylinder 8 is arranged at the bottom of the first coagulation bath 9. Reference numeral 10 denotes a supply port of the coagulation liquid to the first coagulation bath, the supplied coagulation liquid rises to fill the first coagulation bath 9, and further flows down in the down-flow spinning cylinder 8. The lower part of the down-flow spinning tube is tapered and thinly connected to the thin tube 11 so that a high-speed liquid flow is formed in the thin tube 11. A second coagulation bath 12 is provided below the down-flow spinning cylinder, and is filled with a coagulation liquid 13. The thin tube 11 is arranged so that its opening is located in the coagulating liquid 13.

付くといったような問題も生じない。When a conventional down-flowing spinning cylinder whose tip is in the air is used, there is a problem that the coagulating liquid that has flowed down is scattered in the air. However, as described above, the opening of the thin tube at the bottom of the spinning tube is used. The present invention is characterized in that the coagulating liquid is positioned in the coagulating liquid, and by using such a down-flow spinning cylinder, the yarn is spun under a high draft, and the coagulating liquid is never scattered in the air. This is an extremely advantageous point in PVA spinning using a highly volatile or flammable liquid such as alcohol as the coagulating liquid. Further, since there is no mechanical driving unit such as the submerged roll, there is no problem that the yarn is wound around the roll.

m, especially 0.5 to 1.0 cm is preferred. The head difference (H) between the liquid level of the first coagulation bath and the liquid level of the second coagulation bath below the down-spinning tube is preferably 1 to 30 cm. As a result, the flow rate of the coagulating liquid flowing down from the lower part of the down-flow spinning cylinder into the thin tube can be easily set to 5 v or more. It is possible for those skilled in the art to maintain the head difference (H) at 1 to 30 cm without special measures. For example, overflow pipes 14 and 15 may be provided in each of the two coagulation baths, and the coagulation liquid may be supplied so that the coagulation liquid always overflows from the overflow pipes.

伸繊維構造が形成されるためと認められる。In the present invention, the PVA fiber having high strength and high initial elastic modulus is obtained because the PVA molecular chain is stretched and deformed by applying a high draft to the trickle of the spinning dope in the air gap portion of dry-wet spinning. However, it is considered that the entanglement of the molecular chains is disentangled and a highly orientable unstretched fiber structure is formed by hot stretching.
