Fibre Chemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

1. The quality of CF, their strength and modulus of elasticity in particular, can be increased by the following methods: reducing the porosity of the initial PAN fibres by selecting the optimum conditions for spinning, plasticization drawing, finishing, and drying; decreasing the nonuniformity of the fibre diameter due to suppression of deformation resonance during spinning by selecting the jet formation and hardening conditions; decreasing the fibril and crystallite size by reducing the precipitator and solvent concentration gradient in the precipitation zone (spinning into mild baths); creating optimum conditions for mesophase self-ordering of the material at 450–550° C during precarbonization; increasing the cohesive energy by increasing the density to 1.8–2.1 g/cm3. 2. Replacing convective tempering of PAN twists in thermooxidative treatment by conductive tempering reduces the treatment time by 3–4 times.
