Abstract
Polyester staple fibres consisting of a polyester, from 0.1 to 2.0% by weight of an incompatible, thermoplastic, amorphous, polymeric additive having a glass transition temperature of from 90 to 170.degree. C. and a ratio of its melt viscosity to that of the polyester component of from 1:1 to 10:1, and from 0 to 5.0% by weight of conventional additives, where the polymeric additive is present in the staple fibres in the form of fibrils having a mean diameter of .ltoreq.80 nm. Process for the production of these staple fibres by mixing with shearing of the polyester and of the polymeric additive and, optionally, of the conventional additives, spinning at a spinning take-off speed of <2500 m/min to give spun filaments, which are combined to form tows and stretched in a separate fibre stretching stage, crimped, dried and chopped to give staple fibres.
