Abstract

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fiber of 2.2 denier per filament has been irradiated with 4.44-MeV fast neutron beam at different low doses: 0.58–2,513.5 mGy. The variation of crystallinity because of neutron irradiation straining in PET filaments has been investigated. Study of the effects of irradiation by using X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry technique confirms the radiation-induced microstrain-dependent crystallinity of PET fiber.
