Spinning Yarn

I. Product Overview

Spinning yarn refers to the process and finished product of converting fiber raw materials (natural fibers such as cotton and wool, or chemical fibers such as polyester and nylon) into continuous yarn through processes like carding, drawing, and twisting. It is a fundamental raw material in the textile industry, determining the texture and performance of fabrics.

II. Key Features

  • Uniformity: Even distribution of yarn thickness and twist affects the flatness of fabrics.
  • Strength: Tensile resistance, depending on fiber type, twist, and process, which is related to fabric durability.
  • Handfeel: Softness or stiffness, determined by fiber type and yarn structure (e.g., combed yarn is finer).
  • Weavability: The smoothness of adapting to looms or knitting machines, reducing production interruptions.

III. Common Specifications

  • Linear Density (Count/Denier):
    • English count (S): Commonly used for cotton, higher values mean finer yarn (e.g., 32S, 40S).
    • Denier (D): Commonly used for chemical filaments, higher values mean thicker yarn (e.g., 75D, 150D).
  • Twist: Number of twists per unit length (e.g., 100-300 twists/meter); higher twist makes yarn tighter.
  • Length: Hank yarn (e.g., 1kg/hank) or cone yarn (wound as needed) to meet different production requirements.
  • Fiber Type: Pure spinning (e.g., pure cotton, pure polyester) or blended spinning (e.g., cotton-polyester 65/35).

IV. Typical Applications

  • Woven fabrics: Shirt cloth, denim, home textile fabrics, etc.
  • Knitted fabrics: Fabrics for T-shirts, underwear, sportswear.
  • Special purposes: Sewing thread, fishing nets, industrial fabrics, etc.
