False Twist

A novel concept of producing false-twist yarns by cyclical stress fluctuation was developed. The forming principle was introduced to analyze the formation process of false twists on rotary threaded contact surfaces. Geometric analysis indicates that cyclical stress variations produce extra rotations (false twists) on fiber strands in the yarn formation area, causing twist redistribution and fiber arrangement remodeling with the appearance of local fiber reversion. Theoretical analysis reveals that more false twists are produced when the spun yarn is in contact with surfaces of high traverse speeds. Then, a motion simulation model using different traverse speeds of the threaded contact surface was established to compare the yarn internal stress variation, verifying the false-twist efficiency at different traverse speeds. Finally, a systematic comparison was conducted between the yarns spun at different traverse speeds. It was shown that the yarn properties improved with higher traverse speeds of the threaded contact surface, achieving less hairiness, high yarn strength, and low residual torque.

AbstractThis article provides three models to predict rotor spun yarn characteristics which are breaking strength, breaking elongation and unevenness. These models used noncorrelated raw material characteristics and some processing parameters. For this purpose, five different cotton blends were processed into rotor spun yarns having different metric numbers (Nm10, Nm15, Nm18, Nm22, Nm30 and Nm37). Each count was spun at different twist levels. Response surface method was used to estimate yarn quality characteristics and to study variable effects on these characteristics. In this study, predicting models are given by the analysis of response surface after many iterations in which nonsignificant terms are excluded for more accuracy and precision. It was shown that yarn count, twist and sliver properties had considerable effects on the open-end rotor spun yarn properties. This study can help industrial application since it allows a quality management-prediction based on input variables such as fibre characteristics and process parameters.

Prediction Approach

Exploring relationships between characteristics of a yarn and influencing factors is momentous subject to optimize the selection of the variables. Different modelling methodologies have been used to predict spun yarn properties. Developing a prediction approach with higher degree of precision is a subject that has received attention by the researchers. In the last decade, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) has been developed successfully for textile nonlinear processes. In spite of the precision, ANN is a black box and does not indicate inter-relationship between input and output parameters. Hence, Gene Expression Programming (GEP) is presented here as an intelligent algorithm to predict breaking strength of rotor spun yarns based on draw frame parameters as one of the most important stages in spinning line. Forty eight samples were produced and different models were evaluated. Prediction performance of the GEP was compared with that of ANN using Mean Square Error (MSE) and correlation coefficient (R2-Value) parameters on test data. The results showed a better capability of the GEP model in comparison to the ANN model. The R2-value and MSE were 97% and 0.071 respectively which means desirable predictive power of GEP algorithm. Finally, an equation was extracted to predict breaking strength of the yarns with a high degree of accuracy using GEP algorithm.

Yarn Hairiness

Spinning with a static contact surface is an energy-saving method to reduce spun yarn hairiness; however, the spun yarn irregularity and tensile properties are deteriorated. To prohibit the deteriorations, this paper introduces a rotary grooved surface contacting ring spinning strand within the yarn formation zone. In theory, the modeling analysis of spinning with contact surface is conducted to reveal the prohibition mechanism of yarn irregularity and tensile property deteriorations for a rotary grooved surface. Theoretical analysis results indicated that groove-yarn surface friction could wrap the concentrated hairs onto yarn stem while block inflowing twists to the spinning strangle zone; the rotary grooved surface could reduce twist blockage and hair wrapping concentrations to better the situation after a comparison with the static grooved surface. Then, two kinds of specially-designed grooved cylinders (one was rotatable while the other was static) were used to validate the theoretical analysis. The experimental results showed that, unlike the static grooved cylinder which significantly deteriorated the original yarn unevenness CVm, the rotary achieved significant hairiness reduction without any significant deterioration of other yarn properties. This might be due to the decreased friction and twist propagation for the rotary grooved cylinder contacting the spinning strand. In this case, spinning with a rotary grooved cylinder was preferably applied in the first step to control ring spun yarn hairiness.

This paper presents a development of elastic core-spun yarn containing a mix of spandex and polyethylene terephthalate/polytrimethylene terephthalate (PET/PTT) bi-component filament as core to obtain better yarn properties, especially for elastic property. Eight types of core-spun yarns, consisting of different core components with various values of linear density and covered with cotton fibers, were produced using a modified ring-spinning machine with a core spinning attachment. The influences of core components, linear density, and draw ratio of spandex on yarn structure and properties were investigated. The experimental results demonstrate that core-spun yarns containing a mix of spandex and PET/PTT bi-component filament have much lower yarn stress decay as well as lower hairiness and CVm value of evenness compared to the yarns using only spandex. For the yarns containing a mix of spandex and PET/PTT bi-component filament, the yarns containing 70 denier spandex have higher elongation and stress decay compared to the yarns containing 40 denier spandex. The test results show that the elongation of yarns containing a mix of spandex and PET/PTT bi-component filament increases with the increase of the draw ratio of spandex. The stress decay of yarns containing a mix of 70 denier spandex and PET/PTT filament shows a similar trend to the elongation. Moreover, the yarn samples containing a mix of spandex and PET/PTT filament as core exhibit good yarn evenness, with very few thick places and neps, as well as low yarn hairiness.

To overcome the spun yarn unevenness deterioration and insufficient hairiness reduction for ring spinning with a static contact surface, this study introduced a modified method to improve spun yarn properties by contacting the spinning strand with the static rod and self-adjustable disk surfaces. The mechanism of the improvement of spun yarn properties was theoretically analyzed. Analysis results indicated that the combination of the static rod and self-adjustable disk surfaces could improve the yarn hairiness wrapping force without sever twisting blockage, resulting in a large yarn hairiness reduction and surface tight structure without irregularity deterioration. Correspondingly, the yarn tenacity should also become somewhat enhancement. Then, our theoretical analysis and prediction were validated by conducting such comparative experiments as spinning without a contact surface, spinning with a static rod surface, and spinning with a combination of the static rod and self-adjustable disk surfaces. The experimental results were in good agreement with our theoretical analysis and prediction.

Shielding Properties

PurposeWith the popularization of electronic products, the electromagnetic radiation pollution has been the fourth largest pollution after water, air and noise pollution. Therefore, electromagnetic shielding property of textiles is attracting more attention. In this paper, the properties of electromagnetic shielding yarns and fabrics were studied.Design/methodology/approachTen kinds of yarn, stainless steel short fiber and polyester blend yarn with three different blending ratios T/S 90/10, T/S 80/20 and T/S 70/30, stainless steel short fiber, polyester and cotton blend yarn with blending ratio C/T/S 35/35/30, core-spun yarn with one 30 um stainless steel filament C/T28tex/S(30 um), core-spun yarn with two 15 um stainless steel filaments (C/T28tex/S(15 um)/S(15 um)), twin-core-spun yarn with one 30 um stainless steel filament and one 50D spandex filament C/T28tex/S(30 um)/SP(50D), sirofil wrapped yarn with one 30 um stainless steel filament feeding from left S(30 um)+C/T28tex, sirofil wrapped yarn with one 30 um stainless steel filament feeding from right C/T28tex+S(30 um), sirofil wrapped yarn with two 15 um stainless steel filaments feeding from two sides S(15 um)+C/T28tex+ S(15 um), were spun. The qualities of spun yarns were measured. Then, for analyzing the electromagnetic shielding properties of fabrics made of different spun yarns, 20 kinds of fabrics were woven.FindingsThe tested results show that comparing to the T/S 80/20 blend yarn, the resistivity of composite yarns with the same ratio of the stainless steel filament is smaller. The possible reason is that comparing to the stainless steel short fiber, the conductivity of stainless steel filament is better because of the continuous distribution of stainless steel in the filament. Comparing with the core-spun yarn, the conductivity of the sirofil wrapped yarn is a little better. Comparing to the fabric woven by the blend yarn, the electromagnetic shielding of the fabric woven by the composite yarn is better, and comparing to the fabric woven by the core-spun yarn, the electromagnetic shielding of the fabric woven by the sirofil yarn is a little better. The possible reason is that the conduction network can be produced by the stainless steel filament wrapped on the staple fiber yarn surface in the fabric, and the electromagnetic wave can be transmitted in the network.Originality/valueIn this paper, the properties of electromagnetic shielding yarns and fabrics were studied. Ten kinds of yarn, including three stainless steel short fiber and polyester blend yarns, one stainless steel short fiber, polyester and cotton blend yarn, two core-spun yarns, one twin-core-spun yarn, three sirofil wrapped yarn, were spun. Then, for analyzing the electromagnetic shielding properties of fabrics made of different spun yarns, 20 kinds of fabrics were woven. The effects of fabric warp and weft densities, fabric structures, yarn kinds, yarn distributions in the fabric on electromagnetic shielding were analyzed.

Abstract In this study, the wicking properties of ring and compact-siro ring spun staple yarns were compared. The twist level, which is related to the structure of the staple yarns, was found to significantly influence the wicking property of the two kinds of yarn. Polyester staple fibers with 1.33 dtex × 38 mm were selected as the staple fiber material, and the effect of the twist level on the wicking property was investigated using the capillary rise method. The results show that with a decreasing twist coefficient, the wicking height increases with a decrease in yarn compactness. The compact-siro spun yarn showed better wicking properties owing to it special ply yarn structure. Furthermore, the tension property of the yarns decreased significantly with a decrease in the twist coefficient. Compact-siro spinning was carried out to obtain staple yarns with lower twist coefficients, and the yarns showed great improvement in terms of yarn strength, fiber straightness, and wicking properties. Thus, compact-siro spinning is an efficient method to improve the wicking properties of staple yarns.
