Abstract
LC solutions of PPTA behave like liquids with a power law of flow and n =0.65–0.78 for flow through the channels of standard spinnerets with small diameters and q =0.88–0.95 for longitudinal flow in jets. Spinneret expansion of a freely falling jet in channels with small diameters is equal to 1.70–1.75 and is not a function of the shear rate on the wall. Spinneret expansion is preserved in conditions of repeated drawing of the jets in the air space until very small air spaces at 1.5–2.5 mm are used. In spinning PPTA fibres through an air space with a high jet draw ratio, only a small fraction of this drawing in the spinning bath is possible.
