U.S. textile producers nervous about imports

Tomorrow, representatives from the world's leading textile exporting and importing countries will confront each other in Geneva. Although no major decisions are expected to come out of what is billed as a preliminary meeting, the tone of the discussions could shape the future of world textile trade for the remainder of the decade. In the U.S., every company that produces man-made fibers will be watching developments in Geneva closely. The man-made fiber industry, struggling to recover from a recession that sent production downward 11% last year, is worried. Like the rest of the fiber-textile-apparel complex, it is becoming increasingly concerned about the impact that imports are making on its business. So leaders in the man-made fiber industry will be watching to see if U.S. delegates at Geneva will be able to negotiate any relief for them. At issue will be a document with the long-winded title of the Arrangement Regarding International Trade in Textiles. Known ...

Protection of the environment ? The basis for scientific and technical progress in the man-made fiber industry

Production of man-made fibers is increasing fast and with that the emission of toxic substances into the environment. Developments in the fiber industry have taken place at a rapid pace but it is necessary to point out that at many producing establishments the technological processes are still based on batch production, equipment capacity and spinning speeds are low, and measures to protect the environment against pollution with ventilation emissions and industrial effluent are inadequate. Fiber establishments discharge large quantities of water polluted with noxious substances like zinc, sulfuric acid, sulfates, caprolactam, metanol, etc. into natural water bodies and emit pollutants like carbon disulfide and hydrogen sulfide into the atmosphere.

The present state and future development of the man-made fibre industry of the USSR

Growth of the Industry during the Period 1960 1975 The sig:lificance of the man-made fibre in@ustry lies in the fact that it forms a major factor in the fulfilment of the needs of the people for mass-market products and, equally, the needs of industry for technical products. The growth rate of man-made fibre production is rising and its contribution to the industry of the USSR is increasing in scope. The man-made fibre industry now accounts for 15% of the gross product, 14% of the production funds, 18% of the industrial man power and 19% of the profits of the chemical industry as a whole. In 1973 output of man-made fibres stood at 830,0OO tons, i.e. four times higher than in 1960. Durin~ the period 1960 - 1975 the average annual growth rate was 11.4% which includes 25.3~6 for synthetics. Although output of synthetics has iucreased at an accelerating rate over the last few years that of cellulosic fibres is still leading, i.e. 65% of total man made-fibre production in 1973 and probably 59% in 1975. In other industrially developed countries, e.g. the USA, Japan, West Germany, Britain and France, synthetics form the major part of the total fibre output, viz. 60 - 80%. In terms of total man-made fibre production the USSR came in fourth place in 1973 with 830,000 tons after the USA (3.477,000 tons), Japan (1.875,000 tons) and West Germany (995,000 tons) /I-3/. The Soviet Union lags behind the developed capitalist countries also in per capita man-made fibre production. In the USSR per capita man-made fibre production is five times lower and synthtics production 10 - 11 times lower than in West Germany, the USA and Japan. This considerable lag in per capita output is not, however, reflected to a serious extent in the fibre supply for the requirements of the people since the USSR is one of the largest producers of natural textile materials. Per capita output of natural fibres in the USSR in 1972 was 12.5 kg which is considerably higher than in the industrially developed countries of Europe and Asia. The lag ~n the growth of the man-made fibre industry of the USSR can be attributed

Structure and mechanical properties of air-interwoven acetate filament yarn

The technique of interweaving the fibres during the spinning process with a jet of compressed air has been adopted in the practice of the man-made fibre industry both in the Soviet Union and elsewhere /I/. Air-interweaving on a special device fitted to the spinning machine not only increases the density and abrasion resistance of filament yarn but also makes it possible to dispense with the twisting operation /2,3/. The Kaunas Fibre Plant has produced 278 tons of air-interwoven triacetate yarn which was processed to woven and knitted fabrics in the original and textured states.

Present state and future prospects for fibre modification by graft polymerisation

Varying the chemical composition of fibre-forming polymers for the purpose of a controlled change in the properties of the fibre is a long-standing practice in man-made fibre production. One need only mention the fibre processed from the complex ester of cellulose acetyl cellulose, or the industrial-scale production of the various types of synthetic fibre from the copolymers of acrylonitrile to convey a conception of the practical significance of this direction of scientific and technical advance in the manmade fibre industry.
