Abstract

Abstract Interlaced multifilament yarn for weaving as warp in automatic power looms without size or twist is compact and uniform with unusually high bundle cohesion. Interlacing processes and finishes for retaining interlace are illustrated. Suitable intensity and permanence of interlace for weaving are defined by simple measurements.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 155 words
Compact interlaced yarn which weaves satisfactorily as warp in automatic shuttle looms without size or twist, the yarn consisting of interlaced continuous filaments treated with cohesive finish for retaining interlace during processing of the yarn on textile machinery, the interlace permanence being at least 40 percent in the flexure test for interlace permanence; the filaments being interlaced in a compact coherent structure characterized, when evaluated by the APDC test, by a value for X'' + in centimeters of less than 0.17 (B/N) + 4.0, where X'' is the average of 100 APDC readings on a representative sample after backwinding, sigma '' is the standard deviation of the APDC readings, B is the breaking strength of the yarn in grams and N is the number of filaments; the yarn having a breaking strength of at least 4.0 N and at least 50 percent of the yarn filaments having strengths of at least 2.0 grams per denier.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 155 words
Compact interlaced yarn which weaves satisfactorily as warp in automatic shuttle looms without size or twist, the yarn consisting of interlaced continuous filaments treated with cohesive finish for retaining interlace during processing of the yarn on textile machinery, the interlace permanence being at least 40 percent in the flexure test for interlace permanence; the filaments being interlaced in a compact coherent structure characterized, when evaluated by the APDC test, by a value for X'' + in centimeters of less than 0.17 (B/N) + 4.0, where X'' is the average of 100 APDC readings on a representative sample after backwinding, sigma '' is the standard deviation of the APDC readings, B is the breaking strength of the yarn in grams and N is the number of filaments; the yarn having a breaking strength of at least 4.0 N and at least 50 percent of the yarn filaments having strengths of at least 2.0 grams per denier.

Dependent Claim 15 words
Compact interlaced yarn as defined in claim 2 wherein the filaments are composed of polyhexamethyladipamide.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 23 words
Compact interlaced yarn as defined in claim 7 wherein the cohesive finish comprises polyethylene glycol diester and fatty acid esters of higher polyglycols.
