The rate of dye diffusion (diffusion coefficient D) hasbeen related to the time-dependent mechanical property, dynamic loss modulus E', which iscontrolled by the mobility of chain segments. In this modified copolyester system, the variance ofamount of modifier in the copolyester fibers causes the change in disperse dye diffusion coefficientto fiber, and in the dynamic loss modulus of the fibers, but the relationship between the diffusionand the dynamic loss modulus is in agreement with the theoretical relation derived by Bell andDumbleton. The relation obtained in this paper is:Ln D=-2. 28Ln E'+26. 81展开更多
