Polyketone fiber, a newly developed high strength fiber, has a tenacity and modulus similar to the paramid fiber, and can be used for reinforcing mechanical rubber goods(MRG), such as tires, hoses, and technical textiles. In addition, aliphatic polyketone, which has excellent strength, modulus, chemical stability and reasonable price, is being developed only in South Korea. It will be expected for replacement of super fiber such as aramids and increasing the technical textile market share. This paper surveys the mechanical properties of polyketone fiber yarn for technical textiles. For this purpose, two kinds of yarns are prepared, mechanical properties of coated and uncoated polyketone yarns such as tensile strength, elongation and modulus were examined before and after weather resistance test(temperature 60℃, humidity 60%, amount of power 0.67w/m 2 ). The differences of mechanical properties between uncoated and coated yarns for high functional technical textiles and composite materials are estimated through this study.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
