CONSEQUENCE OF TWIST ON YARN PROPERTIES IN TEXTILES (Pages : 22 - 27)

The yarn twisting parameter has great influence on the mechanical properties of yarn. Twist angle, twist per inch (TPI) or meter, twist contraction, twist factor are the main parameters of twist has been studied in this research. Twist effect on yarn strength, rupture behaviour, tenacity has been observed. The strength of yarn decreases as the twist increases. TPI 11 shows the highest strength in both staple and continuous filament yarn. The twist angle of yarn depends on twist factor and twist contraction. Twist factor has a more influential effect on specific volume of yarn.Download
