The development of crystallinity and orientation during the melt spinning of nylon 66 was investigated. Nylon 66 was found to crystallize in the spinline to form the Bunn‐Garner α‐triclinic structure. This behavior differs from that of nylon 6. Nylon 66 was found to develop lower crystalline orientation than nylon 6 under comparable spinning conditions.
