METHOD FOR PRODUCING DYEABLE MODIFIED POLYPROPYLENE

THE INVENTION METHOD IS CHARACTERIZED IN THAT POLYPROPYLENE IS SUITABLE FOR FIBER FORMATION WHEN MIXED WITH A PARTNER WHICH CAN BE BLENDED WITH PP AND THE MIXTURE OBTAINED IS PROCESSED IN AN EXTRUSION SPINNING FACILITY TO FORM A THREAD. SUITABLE PARTNER (POLYSTYRENE) WHICH IS MIXED WITH POLYPROPYLENE.THE OBTAINED MIXTURE IS PROCESSED INTO THREADS IN AN EXTRUSION SPINNING FIXTURE. THE PP THREADS OBTAINED CAN BE PROCESSED ON TUFTING MACHINE TO PRODUCE BOTH TYPICAL AND PRINTED WALL TO WALL ?FLOOR COVERING? LOOP AND CUT PILE CARPETS.THIS TECHNIQUE IS PROVIDING AN ALTERNATIVE COST-EFFECTIVE COMPARED WITH NYLON APPROACH FOR THE PRODUCTION OF MATERIALS WITH IMPROVED DYEING AND PRINTING PROPERTIES THAN NORMAL POLYPROPYLENE & SIMILAR WITH NYLON THREAD
