2D Raman, ATR-FTIR, WAXD, SAXS and DSC data of PET mono- and PET/PA6 bicomponent filaments.

ABSTRACT: This data in brief article summarizes structural data obtained from monocomponent melt-spun and offline drawn poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) monofilaments, as well as from melt-spun bicomponent core-sheath PET-polyamide 6 (PA6) filaments. The diameters of the single filaments range from 27 µm to 79 µm. Presented analysis techniques and results thereof are (i) Raman mapping of filament cross-sections: 2D maps of peak positions, widths, peak area ratios; (ii) attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR): ATR-FTIR spectra and extraction of surface crystallinity; (iii) wide-angle x-ray diffraction (WAXD): WAXD patterns and extraction of average crystallinity; (iv) small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS): SAXS patterns and determined crystallite sizes and long-spacings; (v) differential scanning calorimetry (DSC): thermograms and extracted average crystallinity as well as thermal properties; (vi) atomic force microscopy (AFM): AFM image of the surface of an embedded fiber cross-section. For more information, see the publication by E. Perret et al. 'High-resolution 2D Raman mapping of mono- and bicomponent filament cross-sections' [1].
