Evaluation of the Industrial Processability of High-Strength and High-Modulus Yarns in Weaving, Taking into Account Abrasion Resistance

Abstract

We evaluate the industrial processability of high-strength and high-modulus multifilament yarns in weaving. The procedure for evaluating the processability of a yarn is based on determining the abrasion resistance of the yarns under conditions simulating loom operation. We determine the basic physical and mechanical properties of different types of multifilament yarns, including their abrasion resistance, which affect the processability of the yarns in weaving, letting us predict the weaving conditions.
