Poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) fibres were obtained by high-speed melt spinning up to a take-up velocity of 8 km/min. Fine structure formation and physical properties of these fibres were investigated. The increase of take-up velocity caused raises in both density and birefringence. In wide-angle X-ray diffraction equatorial profiles, the increase of take-up velocity can be observed in the (010) and (100) reflections of β-crystals; the reflection peaks are the sharpest at a take-up velocity of 6 km/min. The initial modulus of the fibres arises when the fraction of β-crystals is increased, while the tenacity depends more on the fraction of α-crystals, i.e., the total crystallinity. Thermal properties of high-speed spun PBT fibres were measured with differential scanning calorimetry, dynamic mechanical and thermo-mechanical analysis, etc. Endothermic curves become sharper with increasing take-up velocity, and endothermic melting peaks are shifted to higher temperature. Crystal structures are well developed in fibres obtained at higher take-up velocities. The tan δ peaks of PBT fibres tend to shift to higher temperature and the peak intensity is decreased with increasing take-up velocity, i.e., the packing density of PBT fibres is high when the take-up velocity and thus the orientation of amorphous regions is increased. The shrinkage has a tendency to decrease with increasing take-up velocity.
