The present invention relates to a full dull polyamide 6 yarn and a
process for preparing the same. The yarn of this invention contains 1.5
to 2.5% by weight of titanium dioxide relative to the weight of the yarn,
has 35 to 95 titanium dioxide particles having a major axial length of
greater than 5 .mu.m being contained in 50 mg of the yarn, and contains
0.1 to 0.5% by weight of phosphate salt (wetting agent) relative to the
weight of titanium dioxide. In the process of this invention, 0.1 to 0.5%
by weight of phosphate salt relative to the weight of titanium dioxide is
added as a wetting agent, carprolactam is applied along with water upon
concentration correction, and naphthalene sulfonate based salt is applied
along with titanium dioxide slurry during the process of polyamide 6
polymerization. The present invention improves the full dull effect and
drape property of the yarn since it contains a great quantity of titanium
dioxide having a proper diameter in the yarn without degrading the yarn
physical properties and operationability.
