ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a high tenacity, high modulus and low shrinkage lyocell multifilament yarn suitable for use in tire cords and MRG (mechanical rubber goods). The lyocell multifilament yarn is a cellulose-based fiber for industrial applications, which is produced by dissolving pulp having a degree of polymerization (DPW) of 700-2,000 and preferably 800-1,400, and a α-cellulose content of more than 90% and preferably more than 92%, in N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMMO) hydrate, at a pulp concentration of 5-15% by weight and preferably 8-13% by weight.The lyocell monofilament according to the present invention is characterized by the following stress-strain profile: (1) the lyocell monofilament analyzed after drying is elongated by less than 3.0% and has an initial modulus of 150-400 g/d, when it was subjected to an initial stress of 3.0 g/d; (2) it is elongated by 3.0-7.0% when it was subjected to a stress greater than the initial stress but smaller than 6.0 g/d; and (3) it is elongated from a tensile tenacity of at least 6.0 g/d until the yarn is broken.
