Polyurethane urea elastic fiber and production method therefor

Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide a polyurethane urea elastic fiber whose physical properties do not change much over time and which retains its initial mechanical properties, and a method for obtaining this fiber by modifying the molecular chain and ends of the polyurethane urea polymer. Another object of the present invention is to provide a polyurethane urea elastic fiber whose use can improve inventory management and fiber processing condition management, and which can be used to obtain a fabric with stable physical properties and qualities, and to provide a method for producing this fiber. The present invention is a polyurethane urea elastic fiber comprising: polyurethane urea polymer A having a molecular chain using a polymer diol, a diisocyanate, and an organic amine as starting materials, and having a primary or secondary amino group on at least one end; and polyurethane urea polymer B using a polymer diol, a diisocyanate, an organic amine, and an organic carboxylic acid as starting materials, and containing an amide bond, wherein the polyurethane urea elastic fiber contains primary or secondary amino end groups in the range of 0.1 meq or more and 20 meq or less per kilogram of polyurethane urea elastic fiber.
