Abstract (en)

[origin: EP4124680A1] The present disclosure relates to a method and processing facility for producing regenerated cellulosic fibers. The method comprises extruding a spinning solution into a coagulation bath which contains a salt and preferably an alkali to produce the fibers. The spinning solution comprising cellulose dissolved in an aqueous solvent comprising NaOH and ZnO. The coagulation bath has a pH-value of at least seven. The method further comprises a continuous process of applying to the fibers in a never-dried state a crosslinking agent with two or more reactive groups and heating the fibers to a curing temperature while maintaining the never-dried condition to produce a reaction between the crosslinking agent and the cellulose of the fiber.
