The invention concerns a method for producing a carbon fibre, that comprises a step of preparing a continuous fibre made of cellulose from cotton fabrics, by extracting, from these fabrics, cotton in the form of short, discontinuous fibres, and implementing a solvent spinning process; this step being followed by a step of carbonising said obtained continuous fibre made from cellulose, in order to form a carbon fibre. This carbon fibre can be used, in particular, for producing articles made from composite material made from carbon fibres and polymer organic resin.

Disclosed is a continuous preparation method of cellulose fibers, in which a forming tension of 0.1 to 1.9 cN/dtex is applied to a fine solution stream obtained by extrusion through a spinneret plate and air gap cooling, then the fine solution stream is fed into a coagulating bath at a speed of 80 to 1000 m/min, a traction tension of 0.075 to 1.5 cN/dtex is continued to be applied to washed fibers in a water washing system behind the coagulating bath, and finally, the washed fibers are fed into a post-treatment system for continuous and efficient spinning of finished fibers at a speed of 80 to 1000 m/min.

Provided are a method for producing a drawn conjugated fiber, capable of producing a conjugated fiber having a high strength and a thin fineness, and a drawn conjugated fiber. A drawn conjugated fiber is produced by performing a spinning step of obtaining an undrawn fiber having a core-sheath structure in which a core material is a resin containing, as a main component, a crystalline propylene polymer and a sheath material is a resin containing, as a main component, an olefin polymer having a melting point lower than that of the core material, by means of melt-spinning (step S1); and a drawing step of drawing the undrawn fiber (step S2).

An ultra-high molecular weight, ultra-fine particle size polyethylene has a viscosity average molecular weight (Mv) greater than 1×10.sup.6. The polyethylene is spherical or are sphere-like particles having a mean particle size of 10-100 μm, having a standard deviation of 2-15 μm and a bulk density of 0.1-0.3 g/mL. Using the polyethylene as a basic polyethylene, a grafted polyethylene can be obtained by means of a solid-phase grafting method; and a glass fiber-reinforced polyethylene composition comprising the polyethylene and glass fibers, and a sheet or pipe prepared therefrom; a solubilized ultra-high molecular weight, ultra-fine particle size polyethylene; and a fiber and a film prepared from the solubilized ultra-high molecular weight, ultra-fine particle size polyethylene may also be obtained. The method has simple steps, is easy to control, has a relatively low cost and a high repeatability, and can realize industrialisation.
