Formation of a large‐scale shish‐kebab structure of polyoxymethylene in the melt spinning and the crystalline morphology evolution after hot stretching

Abstract: Polyoxymethylene (POM) fiber was produced by melt spinning with a high take-up speed, which imposed a strong flow field. An unexpected formation of a shish-kebab morphology with multiple shish of POM fibers was reported for the first time. This morphology is a large-scale shish kebab with a diameter of 10.5 μm. Further orientation of the POM fiber was obtained by hot stretching twice at 160°C. Two crystalline morphology evolution processes were also observed: (i) the process from the large-scale shish-kebab to… Show more

“…[1][2][3] The tribological behavior of polymer-based materials is of great importance since a variety of engineering plastics, such as polyoxymethylene (POM), [4][5][6] polyetheretherketone (PEEK), 7,8 and polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), 9,10 have been ubiquitously utilized in the areas of automotive, machinery, instruments, among others. POM exhibits a typical helical chain structure 11 which is composed of alternating carbon-hydrogen bonds. As a result, POM displays a high degree of regularity in its molecular chain, which endows POM with outstanding solvent resistance and selflubricating nature.…”

“…Polyoxymethylene (POM), one of the most important engineering thermoplastics known as “comparable steel” and “plastic metal,” has excellent mechanical and electrical properties, outstanding dynamic fatigue resistance, low friction, and abrasion resistance and therefore been widely used for production of precise components in automotive, mechanical and electronic fields, such as transmission elements, connectors, instruments and zippers, and so forth …”

“…Due to the marked flexibility of the molecular chains, it crystallizes fairly quickly with a crystallinity as high as about 85% in forms of coarse crystalline grains . The high crystallinity contributes to the high tensile strength, high stiffness and hardness, and so forth, which make it an excellent engineering plastics . However, the high crystallinity leads to significant shrinkage (around 3–3.5%) of the products during molding because of the apparent density difference between the crystalline (1.49 g/cm 3 ) and amorphous (1.21 g/cm 3 ) phases .…”

“…Uniaxial hot-stretching, a method to achieve high orientation of polymer materials under the action of external force, realizes a secondary uniform dispersion of the fillers along the orientation direction. In addition, the hot-stretching technology can effectively promote the regularity of polymer molecular chains and improve their crystallinity [23,24,25,26,27,28].…”
