Crystallite Size and Orientation in Drawn Nylon 6 Filaments

정신 Nylon 6 섬유의 미결정 및 배향도 변화에 관한 연구

The crystallite size and the orientation of nylon 6 filaments, drawn at the various draw ration (2, 3, 4, & 5) and various temperatures (20, 60, 100, & 140℃), were studied by X-ray diffraction method. The crystallite size was calculated by Scherrer's method and orientation was measured by Warwicker's szimuthal angle at the half width of the maximum intensity (ؽ). The crystallite size of 020 plane (fiber axis) increased with the increase of draw ratios up to 4, remarkable crystallite growths being found in the samples treated at 140℃, whereas significant changes in the crystallite size of 200 plane(┴ fiber axis) could not be found. The crystallite orientation in fiber axis increased with the increase of draw ratio, and the remarkable increase of orientation was noted in the samples treated at 20℃(belowTg).
