Yarn |
|
A
Product Of Substantial Length And Relatively Small Cross-section
Consisting Of Fibres And/or Filament(s) With Or Without Twist. Note
1: Assemblies Of Fibres Or Filaments Are Usually Given Other Names
During The Stages That Lead To The Production Of Yarn, E.g., Tow,
Slubbing, Sliver, Or Roving. Except In The Case Of
Continuous-filaments Or Tape Yarns, Any Tensile Strength Possessed
By The Assemblies At These Stages Is Generally The Minimum That Can
Hold Them Together During Processing. Note 2: Staple, Continuous
Filament, And Mono-filament Yarns Are Included. Note 3: No
Distinction Is Made Between Single, Folded And Cabled Yarns. Note 4:
Zero-twist Continuous Filament Yarns Are Included. Note 5:
Zero-twist And Self-twist Staple Yarn Are Included. Note 6: By The
Definition Of Fibre And Filament, Paper, Metal, Film And Glass Yarns
Are Included.

Zero-twist |
(1)
A Continuous-filament Single Yarn In Which There Is No Twist, (2) A
Multi-fold Yarn In Which There Is No Folding Twist. Note 1: Some
Fibrous Yarns Are Described As Twistless, Since The Fibres May Be
Held Together By Adhesive Temporarily E.g., Until Incorporated In
Fabrics. Varieties Of Core-spun Yarn And Scaffolding Yarn Have
Appeared With This Description After Solvent-removal Of One
Component. Note 2.. Zero-twist Continuous-filament Yams Usually
Become Twisted By Over-end Withdrawal E.g., From A Pirn In A Loom

Folded, Doubled, Plied |
A
Yarn In Which Two Or More Single Yarns Are Twisted Together In One
Operation, E.g., Two-fold Yarn, Three-fold Yarn, Etc. Note: In Some
Sections Of The Textile Industry, E.g., The Marketing Of
Hand-knitting Yams, These Yarns Are Referred To As Two-ply,
Three-ply, Etc.

A
Yarn That Differs From The Normal Construction Of Single And Folded
Yarns By Way Of Deliberately Produced Irregularities In Its
