  • Sustainable low melting temperature bicomponent polyester fibers that can be circularly recycled were developed. The potentially biobased poly(hexamethylene terephthalate) (PHT), acting as the low melting temperature sheath material in the designed bicomponent fibers, was synthesized in a pilot scale. The obtained PHT with an intrinsic viscosity of 0.47 dL/g showed suitable processability when it was processed together with a poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) core in a melt-spinning process of bicomponent fibers. Compared with the commercial low melting temperature terephthalate-isophthalate copolyester LMP-160, PHT showed superior mechanical properties according to DMA analysis. The low melting temperature bicomponent fibers with a ratio of the PBT core and PHT sheath at 70:30 were produced smoothly at 290 °C in a pilot melt-spinning line. Preliminary chemical recycling investigations by methanolysis revealed that PHT/PBT bicomponent fibers were completely depolymerized within 2 h at 200 °C, yielding pure terephthalate, which could be conveniently separated and recycled. This indicated the feasibility of circular recycling, which will greatly improve the sustainability of nonwovens thermally bonded by these new bicomponent fibers. © 2021 The Authors.
