The present invention provides an artificial hair and a method for producing same. The method for producing an artificial hair according to the present invention comprises: a step of mixing polyamide 6 powder and a master batch at a predetermined weight ratio; a step of drawing an artificial hair from the mixture; a step of forming a loop part by knotting a distal end of the drawn artificial hair; a step of cutting the distal end of the artificial hair, leaving just 1-1.5 mm from the knotted part of the loop part; a step of trimming the artificial hair to a predetermined length after the cutting; and a step of bundling a plurality of the trimmed artificial hair.

Disclosed are fibers comprising a modified polyamide, such as a modified nylon-6, a modified nylon-6,6, or a modified nylon-5,6. The polyamide may be modified to contain a modified polyolefin, such as a maleated polyolefin. The disclosed fibers are hydrophobic and have surprising properties and benefits as compared to fibers having the same base polymer but without modification.

Meltable flame retardant compositions and fibers fabricated thereof are provided. Compositions of the present disclosure comprise a polymer, a nitrogenous compounds and/or a phosphorus compound. Fibers and compositions of the present disclosure can be used to make fabrics. When fibers, fabrics, and compositions of the present disclosure are exposed to flame, non-flammable gases are released such that the flames is retarded and/or extinguished.

A method for producing a textile product (I), (II), comprising at least two synthetic pile threads (P1), (P2) having a different pile height, so that a predetermined design is formed, in which the synthetic pile yarns (P1), (P2) are manufactured by extrusion from the same raw material, according to production processes which only differ from each other by a different setting of one or several process parameters of their respective extrusion processes, so that they have a different shrinking capability, and in which the textile product (I), (II) is subjected to a heat treatment which causes the pile yarns (P1), (P2) to shrink differently. Also such a method for producing synthetic textile yarns (P1), (P2) having a different shrinking capability.

The invention relates to a reinforcement cord for elastomeric products, in particular for pneumatic tires, comprising at least one yarn made of filaments.

The invention further relates to an elastomeric product comprising at least one reinforcement cord.

For protection of the environment and conservation of resources, together with good processing performance, at least one yarn of the reinforcement cord comprises filaments made of polybutylene dicarboxyfuranoate (PBF), where the PBF has been produced entirely or at least to some extent from biomass and/or from renewable raw materials.

A composition for forming a fiber includes at least one polyamide and caprolactam. The at least one polyamide has a number average molecular weight between 38,000 Da and 100,000 Da. The polyamide is at least partially dissolved in the caprolactam. The caprolactam comprises between 20 wt. % and 90 wt. % of the composition.
