This patent application claims the benefit of pending U.S.
Provisional patent application Serial No. 60/146,487 filed July 30, 1999.
The present invention relates to a spin finish for synthetic fiber.
Background of the invention Upon emerging from a spinneret, many synthetic fibers require the application of a spin finish in order to further process the spun yarn.
Because a spin finish may be present in a minimal layer on fiber, the spin finish acts as an interface between the fiber and the metallic surfaces 1~ such as guides and rollers which contact the fiber during such processing as drawing or relaxing.
The art teaches many spin finishes for conventional industrial, carpet, and textile yarn. For example, spin finishes comprising lubricants ~o of polyalkylene glycols with molecular weights of 300 to 1 ,000 and a second component are taught by US Patent 4,351 ,738 (see Comparative Examples) and commonly assigned US Patents 3,940,544; 4,019,990;
and 4,108,781. US Patent 4,340,382 teaches a finish comprising a nonionic surfactant of polyalkylene glycol block copolymer.

See also Kokai Patent Publication 1 5319 published January 23, 1987.
Unfortunately, spin finishes comprising polyalkylene glycols wherein the preferred or lowest molecular weight exemplified is - 2,000 may form deposits on the metallic surfaces which they contact during manufacturing.
US Patent 5,507,989 teaches a spin finish wherein the boundary lubricant is a polyalkylene glycol having a molecular weight of > 9,000.
US Patent 4,442,249 teaches a spin finish comprising an ethylene to oxide/propylene oxide block copolymer with a molecular weight greater than 1 ,000; an alkyl ester or dialkyl ester or polyalkyl ester of tri- to hexaethylene glycol lubricant; and a neutralized fatty acid emulsifier.
Unfortunately, spin finishes comprising these block copolymers also may form deposits on the metallic surfaces which they contact during m manufacturing and these textile spin finish compositions may be inadequate for the more severe conditions used in industrial fiber production.

;o Over the years, processes for manufacturing industrial yarns have become more demanding. See for example the processes for making _>
dimensionally stable polyester fiber taught by commonly assigned US
Patents 5,132,067; 5,397,527; and 5,630,976. Further, a general trend exists in the yarn converting industry towards direct cabling machines to reduce conversion costs. Cost reductions are achieved in part, as direct cabling machines operate at considerably higher speeds (30-50% greater) and complete two steps at once compared to conventional ring twisters.
However, the demands placed on the yarn finish to preserve yarn mechanical quality are much greater with direct cabling machines. Thus, a spin finish which enhances yarn processability and contributes to 1~~ improved yarn performance is needed in the art.
Summary of the Invention ua We have developed a spin finish which responds to the foregoing need in the art. The present spin finish composition comprises at least about 10 percent by weight based on the spin finish composition of components (a) and (b) having the formula R,-(CO)x-O-(CH(RZ)-CHZ-0)y-(CO)Z-R3 2c) wherein each of R, and R3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen or an alkyl group having from one to 22 carbon atoms or an alkylene hydroxy group having from one to 22 carbon atoms, x is zero or one, 2~ RZ may vary within component (a) or component (b) and is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen or an alkyl group having from one to four carbon atoms, y is zero, or from one to 25, and z is zero or one, ~o in component (a), x and z are equal to zero and the average molecular weight of component (a) is less than or equal to 1 ,900 and if R2 varies, component (a) is a random copolymer; and in component (b), at least x or z is equal to one or component (b) is a complex polyoxyethylene glyceride-containing compound having greater than 10 polyoxyethylene units;
up to five percent by weight based on the spin finish composition of component ( c) of an alkoxylated silicone; and at least about one percent by weight based on the spin finish composition of component (d) having the formula 1u R4 (CH20(CO)aR5)b wherein R4 is -C- or -COC-; a is 0 or 1; R5 is -H; from -CH3 to -C,gH3,; or -CH(R61-CH20; b is 4 or 6; and Rs is -H or -CH3 or -H and -CH3 in a ratio of 10:90 to 90:10.
1> The present invention is advantageous compared with conventional spin finishes applied to industrial yarn because the present spin finish enhances yarn processability as evidenced by low fuming, improved mechanical quality at lower amounts of spin finish per yarn, improved mechanical quality at higher draw ratios, and minimal depositing and ~o improves yarn performance as evidenced by improved strength and wicking.
Other advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the following description and attached claims.

dimensionally stable polyester fiber taught by commonly assigned US
Patents 5,132,067; 5,397,527; and 5,630,976. Further, a general trend exists in the yarn converting industry towards direct cabling machines to reduce conversion costs.

Samples between 5 and 8 milligrams in weight were heated from 30°C
to 300°C at 10°C/minute under an air purge at 200milliliters/minute.
2. Fray Count: Yarn defect level was measured on-line using the Enka Tecnica FR-20 type Fraytec system.

3. Breaking Strength: Breaking strength was determined according to ASTMD885 (1998). For each yarn tested, ten tests were conducted zo and the average of the ten tests was reported.
4. Wicking Cord Test Method: This test method covers determination of dip wicking ability on untreated or treated cords. A yarn or cord is vertically immersed in a container filled with dip. The dip ?~ permeability through fiber capillary in two minutes is then measured by tracking the vertical progress of the dyed dip.
The apparatus includes two ring stands for holding test cords, dip container of one inch diameter and one inch depth, and control motor (1 /8 ~o Hp with manual rpm control) to feed test yarn through apparatus.
All test specimens must be conditioned at least 24 hours at atmosphere of 70° F and 65% relative humidity as directed in ASTM
D 1776.
For the test procedure, step 1 is to mix three drops of red dye well with dip solution. Step 2 is to pull the test cord through a sample holder in the order of a first ring stand, dip container, and a second ring stand to the control motor. Wind the cord on the pulley of the control motor.
Finally, apply 20 gms pretension weight on the cord between the first ring «~ stand and the ruler. Step 3 is to fill the dip container with the colored dip. Make sure dip level is at the top edge of the dip container, even with the "0" on the ruler. Step 4 is to turn on the motor and feed a section of yarn through the dip. Stop the motor and start the test. Step 5 is to allow dip to wick two minutes on the specimen. Measure and report 1, position of colored dip as it climbs the sample. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for nine times per fiber. Calculate average and standard deviation of ten wicking reading.

up to about five percent by weight based on the spin finish composition of a component (c) of an ethyoxylated silicone; and at least about one percent by weight based on the spin finish composition of a component (d) having the formula R4 (CH2O(CO)a R5)b wherein R4 is -C- or -COC-; a is 0 or 1 ; R5 is -H; from -CH3 to -C18H37; or -CH(R6)-CH2O; b is 4 or 6; and R6 is -H or -CH3 or -H and -CH3 in a ratio of 10:90 to 90:10; and C. drawing said yarn.
17. The process of claim 16 wherein in said step A, said polymer is polyamide.
18. The process of claim 16 wherein in said step A, said polymer is polyester.
19. The process of claim 16 wherein said in said step B, said spin finish is applied to said yarn in an amount of about 0.2 to about 1.5 percent by weight based on the weight of said yarn.
20 The process of claim 16 wherein in said step B, in said component (a), each of said R1 and R3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen or an alkyl group having from one to 22 carbon atoms, said x and z are zero, said R2 may vary and is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen or an alkyl group having from one to four carbon atoms, and said y is zero, or between one to 25.
