Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing a continuous multifilament yarn of melt-spinnable, polymeric material which is essentially free from stretch and which comprises draw-texturing a first continuous filament yarn end, combining the first end with a second flat continuous filament yarn end, and feeding the combined textured and flat ends through a jet interlacer in an overfeed condition with the textured end being fed at a greater rate of overfeed than that of the flat end. An alternate process is disclosed wherein draw-texturing of the first textured yarn end and drawing of the second flat yarn end are performed simultaneously prior to jet interlacing of the overfed combined ends. Also disclosed is the spun-like continuous multifilament yarn produced by the novel process as well as resulting fabric made from the yarn.
Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing a continuous multifilament yarn of melt-spinnable, polymeric material which comprises draw-texturing first and second continuous filament yarn ends separately and then combining the yarn ends in an interlacing zone by feeding one of the yarn ends at a higher speed than the other through a jet entangler to interlace the yarns together. Also disclosed is the spun-like continuous multifilament yarn produced by the novel process.
Abstract: A composite yarn of a falsetwist textured continuous multifilament end and spun yarn end fluid entangled with an interyarn tangle factor of at least 20 is disclosed. The spun yarn end is wrapped around the continuous filament end in alternate and varying degrees while individual filaments of the continuous filament yarn are wrapped around the spun yarn at "locking points" along the length of the spun yarn and interlaced together. A method for manufacture of the composite yarn is also disclosed.
Abstract: The disclosure relates to cospinning and drawing polyester filaments to produce a composite yarn which develops bulk due to differential shrinkage of the filaments when heated. Filaments of ethylene terephthalate synthetic linear condensation polymer are melt spun to form two separate filament bundles, a water-based spring finish is applied to the filaments of one bundle and a substantially non-volatile spin finish is applied to filaments of the other filament bundle, the filament bundles are drawn under identical treatment conditions during passage along separate paths and the filaments are then combined and intermingled during passage around draw rolls. The product is a mixed-shrinkage yarn wherein the filaments treated with aqueous-based finish have a higher heat-shrinkage than the filaments treated with non-volatile finish, even though both are otherwise processed in the same manner.
Abstract: An air jet nozzle to entangle the filaments of at least a pair of multifilament yarns passing therethrough. Air is supplied substantially perpendicular to the yarn passing through the jet and an air deflector is employed on the entrance side of the jet to prevent the supplied air from blowing residue from the yarn into the yarn break detector switches.
Abstract: The invention is related to a process for the production of staple-fibre-like textured continuous filament yarns by interlacing and false-twisting, wherein a partly drawn filament is heat-treated before the texturing process, this filament is subsequently interlaced with a non shrunken filament and both are finally subjected to draw texturing.
