Claims
- 1. Synthetic filamentary yarn comprised of polyethylene terephthalate filaments which are first treated with from about 0.3 to about 0.6 weight percent based on the weight of the yarn of a liquid composition consisting essentially of about 10 to about 20 weight percent of said composition of each hexadecyl stearate and refined coconut oil, about 3.0 to about 6.0 weight percent of said composition of ethoxylated tallow amine, about 10 to about 20 weight percent of said composition of ethoxylated lauryl alcohol, about 8.0 to about 12.0 weight percent of said composition of sodium salt of alkylaryl sulfonate, about 1.0 to about 3.0 weight percent of dinonyl-sodium-sulfosuccinate, about 1.0 to about 3.0 weight percent of said composition of 4,4'-thio-bis(3-methyl-6-tert-butylphenol), about 35 to 50 weight percent of said composition of white mineral oil having a boiling point of between 510.degree. and 620.degree.F. wherein at least about 0.15 to about 0.30 weight percent is retained on said yarn, and then said yarn is treated with 0.5 to 1.5 weight percent based on the weight of the yarn of a polyalkylene glycol finish composition consisting essentially of a polyoxyethylated-polyoxypropylated monoether which is a condensation product of 40 to 60 percent ethylene oxide and 40 to 60 percent propylene oxide on a mol basis, terminated with an alcohol containing 3 to 5 carbon atoms, said polyoxyethylated-polyoxypropylated-monoether having a molecular weight of from 300 to 600 and a viscosity of from 75 to 300 S.U.S. at 100.degree.F.
- 2. The polyester yarn of claim 1 wherein the polyoxyethylated-polyoxopropylated monoether has a molecular weight of from 300 to 600 and a viscosity of from 100 to 200 S.U.S. at 100.degree.F.
- 3. The polyester yarn of claim 1 wherein the polyoxyethylated-polyoxypropylated monoether is a condensation product of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide terminated with butyl alcohol, having a molecular weight of from 300 to 600 and a viscosity of about 100 S.U.S. at 100.degree.F.
- 4. The polyester yarn of claim 1 wherein the yarn is heated to 215.degree. to 230.degree.C. for at least a few seconds after the polyoxyethylated-polyoxypropylated monoether is incorporated on the yarn.
