| Abstract: | The effect of spinning conditions on the
structural, mechanical and low -stress response of cotton ring- and
compact-spun yarns has been studied. Spinning conditions include spinning
draft, twist factor, yarn tex and spindle speed. Generally, the compact- spun
yarns display higher mean migration intensity and lower values of mean fibre
position, helix angle and helix diameter. It is also observed that the yarn
structures produced under various spinning conditions yield different
performance characteristics and the differences are quite meaningful; however,
using appropriate twist factor and varying spindle speed, one can successfully
spun yarns with less hairiness, better abrasion resistance, and quite
sufficient structural integrity and compressional energy. An optimal spinning
draft is required if the optimum level of structural integrity, compressional
energy, compressional resilience and abrasion resistance of a yarn needs to be
achieved for a specific end-use. The behaviour of compact-spun yarns is
noticeably better in respect of tensile strength, work of rupture, abrasion
resistance, hairiness and mass irregularity. |
