A composite fiber for use in additive manufacturing such as fused filament fabrication is described along with methods of its construction and use. The composite fiber includes a single continuous fiber (e.g., a continuous carbon roving) and a polymer (e.g., a high glass transition polymer) in intimate contact. The composite fiber is formed through immersion of the continuous fiber in a series of two or more solutions that together include monomer(s), catalysts, or other materials for generating the polymer as the continuous fiber moves through the solutions.

A core-sheath conjugate fiber for artificial hair includes a core part and a sheath part. The core-sheath conjugate fiber for artificial hair is a colored fiber. The core part has a lightness L* of 10 or less in the CIE1976 color space and the sheath part has a lightness L* of 15 or more in the CIE1976 color space. With this configuration, the core-sheath conjugate fiber for artificial hair that has deep and natural colors similar to those of human hair and a good appearance, a hair ornament product including the same, and a method for producing the same are provided.

Compositions with improved flame properties and with improved melt dripping properties can include a first polymer and a reactive component. The first polymer may be nylon or polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The composition can be formed into fibers and woven into a fabric. Crosslinking of the first polymer or of the first polymer and the reactive component can provide the improved properties.

The present invention relates to the technical field of polyamide materials, and specifically relates to a polyamide sea-island fiber and a process for producing the same and the use thereof. In the polyamide sea-island fiber, the island component is a polyamide resin selected from one of polyamide 56, polyamide 510, polyamide 511, polyamide 512, polyamide 513, polyamide 514, polyamide 515 and polyamide 516, preferably polyamide 56 or polyamide 510; the sea component is one of polyethylene, low-density polyethylene, polystyrene, water-soluble polyesters, polyesters and polyurethanes, preferably polyethylene, low-density polyethylene or water-soluble polyester. The polyamide sea-island fiber of the present invention has better mechanical properties, better softness, good dyeing properties, high grade of dyeing grey scale, high dye uptake, high dyeing depth and high color fastness.
