Microporous polypropylene fibers were prepared by stretching polypropylene fibers containing poly(methylsilsesquioxane) filler. The properties of the resultant fibers are controllable by adjusting the filler content and stretching degree. The resultant fibers have a fine texture of polypropylene fibrils, in which the filler particles are dispersed. Some properties were investigated: tensile strength, elongation, Young's modulus, porosity, pore size, and specific surface area. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
