Production of Core Spun Yarn with Ring & Siro Spinning System

A common problem in production of core–spun yarns on the Ring spinning frame is the slippage of the staple fibers as sheath fibers relative to the core. This effect is known as ‘strip-back’ or barberpole. This problem may lead to an incomplete core coverage and results in end–breaks in subsequent processing. In order to avoid this problem, in the present work, core spun yarns (acrylic sheath fi...

Comfort aspects of finished polyester-cotton and polyester-viscose ring and MJS yarn fabrics

The influence of different experimental conditions on the thermal comfort behavior of polyester-viscose and polyester-cotton ring and MJS yarn fabrics has been studied. The results show that the yarn structure and the fibre cross-sectional shape have a large influence on improving the thermal comfort of woven fabrics. The fabrics made from MJS yarns perform better than those of the ring yarn fa...

Properties and performance of flax yarn/ thermoplastic polyester composites

Aiming at demonstrating the potential of unidirectional natural fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites in structural applications, textile flax yarn/thermoplastic polyester composites with variable fiber volume fractions have been manufactured by a filament-winding process followed by a vacuum-assisted compression molding process. The microstructure of the composites shows that the flax fibe...

Predicting conducting yarn failure in woven electronic textiles

Smart, electronic textiles are often exposed to tensile stress which can lead to fracture of the interwoven conducting yarns. In this study, a model is proposed to relate the extensibility of the conducting yarns to the weaving pattern of the textile – in particular to the thickness and pitch of the textile yarns. The model is validated by simultaneous mechanical and electrical tests on bare ya...
