Abstract

An experimental study of the variables in the wet spinning process for zein is presented. The results indicate conditions at which spinning of zein is possible and a spinnability curve, which shows the region where spinning is possible, has been defined. The spinnability curve tends to be higher for larger extrusion velocities, lower dope concentrations, higher bath temperatures, and larger spinnerette diameters.
