Abstract:

Aiming at the problem that NaOH could damage the structure of polyester fiber and affect the wicking effect, wettability, strength and elongation properties of profiled polyester fiber, and fast drying and cool properties, scanning electro microscopy was adopted to characterize the structure of the fiber before and after NaOH treatment. The influencing factors of wicking effect was analyzed and the influences of alkali concentration on wicking effect, wettability, strength and elongation properties were studied. The results show that the cross section of profiled polyester fiber is cross shaped. Four trenches along the longitudinal direction of the fiber play the capillary role and provide a channel for the migration of moisture. Therefore, the profiled polyester fiber and yarn have good wicking effect. Sodium hydroxide can effectively remove the oligomers from profiled polyester fibers, and the wicking effect of profiled polyester yarns is improved significantly when the concentration of alkali is about 4%. It is found that profiled polyester yarns treated by NaOH solution have good wettability. With the increase of the alkali concentration, the strength and elongation of profiled polyester yarns decrease, and the strength and elongation properties of the profiled polyester yarns are lost significantly while the alkali agent concentration is higher than 6%.

Key words: profiled polyester fiber, alkali treatment, wicking effect, strength of yarn
