Abstract
The monofilament for precision woven fabrics is made of a polyethylene terephthalate/polydialkyl siloxane copolymer having a silicon content from 0.05 to 2.0 percent by weight, a polyethylene terephthalate proportion of at least 85% by weight, a diameter from 0.01 to 0.1 mm, an elongation at break of less than 30%, a strength of at least 45 cN/tex, a modulus of elasticity at 5% extension greater than 500 cN/tex and a fibrillation characterizing parameter from 0.0 to 0.5.
