Abstract: In a yarn composed of core-sheath filaments with or without further monocomponent filaments, the core and the sheath of the core-sheath filaments are produced by extruding spinnable polymers, with at least almost all the core-sheath filaments having a complete sheath. Of all the core-sheath filaments in the yarn, the proportion of core-sheath filaments P, in %, of which each core-sheath filament has (S.+-.0.1 S) % of sheath content (based on the total volume of the particular core-sheath filament), meets the following conditions: P.ltoreq.100, S.gtoreq.0.5, and P.gtoreq.30+(0.1 S).sup.8 %. This yarn can be produced by a process wherein the core component is fed via a first spinneret plate to a second spinneret plate in a plurality of individual streams, and between the first and second spinneret plate each individual stream of core component is enveloped by the sheath component being fed onto it, and the two components are conjointly spun, drawn and wound up.
