The changes of structure and properties of Nylon 6 fiber, by heat treatment were studied under various conditions of water vapour pressure. The changes of structure and properties such as strength. Young's modulus, density, intensity of small angle X-ray diffraction showed good correlations with the change of water vapour pressure in the closed vessel used for heat treatment of Nylon 6 yarn. Fig. 5. Water vapour pressure vs temperature in the closed vessel used for heat treatment. The points of B, C. and D are turning temperatures of water vapour pressure.
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.
