Abstract
A liquid crystal polyester multifilament has an initial modulus variation of 3.0% or less and a tensile strength of 18 cN/dtex or more.
Claims16
1:
- A liquid crystal polyester multifilament having an initial modulus variation of 3.0% or less and a tensile strength of 18 cN/dtex or more.
2:
- The liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, wherein the liquid crystal polyester multifilament has a tensile strength variation of 3.0% or less.
3:
- A highly processed product, comprising:
- the liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1.
4:
- A method for manufacturing the liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, the method comprising:
- at least subjecting a spun raw yarn of the liquid crystal polyester multifilament to heat treatment, wherein the spun raw yarn undergoes the heat treatment while being transferred at an extension ratio of 1.001 times to 1.200 times.
5:
- The method of claim 4, wherein a tensile strength ratio of the liquid crystal polyester multifilament between before and after the heat treatment is 1.5 times or more.
6:
- The method of claim 4, wherein the liquid crystal polyester multifilament undergoes the heat treatment while being transferred by a roll-to-roll process.
7:
- The liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, wherein the variation in initial modulus of the liquid crystal polyester multifilament is from about 0.1% to 2.5%.
8:
- The liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, wherein the variation in initial modulus of the liquid crystal polyester multifilament is from about 0.1% to 2.0%.
9:
- The liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, having an initial modulus of 100 cN/dtex or more.
10:
- The liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, having an initial modulus of 300 cN/dtex or more.
11:
- The liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, wherein the tensile strength of the liquid crystal polyester multifilament is from 20 cN/dtex to about 30 cN/dtex.
12:
- The liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, wherein the tensile strength of the liquid crystal polyester multifilament is from 23 cN/dtex to about 30 cN/dtex.
13:
- The liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, wherein the liquid crystal polyester multifilament has a tensile strength variation from about 0.1% to 2.5%.
14:
- The liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, wherein the liquid crystal polyester multifilament has a tensile strength variation from about 0.1% to 2.0%.
15:
- The liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, wherein the liquid crystal polyester multifilament has a single filament fineness from 0.5 dtex to 50 dtex.
16:
- The liquid crystal polyester multifilament of claim 1, wherein the liquid crystal polyester multifilament has a total fineness from 10 dtex to 50,000 dtex.
