WRAPPING YARN [10 records]

Record 1 2025-03-05

English

Subject field(s)
  • Technical Textiles
CONT

Conductive fibres/yarns can be produced in filament or staple lengths and can be spun with traditional non-conductive fibres to create yarns that possess varying degrees of conductivity. Also, conductive yarns can be created by wrapping a non-conductive yarn with metallic copper, silver or gold foil and be used to produce electrically conductive textiles. Conductive threads are typically finer and stronger than conductive yarns...

... a twisted yarn in that the core yarn does not twist with the yarn that is wrapped around it; the surrounding yarn could be unwrapped and the core yarn would remain intact... Core-spun yarns... consist of a core(usually a monofilament or multifilament yarn), around which fibers(not yarns) are wrapped. A common example is a spandex filament core with a wrapping of cotton fibers... it is sometimes difficult... to distinguish fibers wrapped around a core from yarn wrapped around a core... Metalized strip, consisting of a core of metal foil or of plastic(often polyester) film coated with metal dust... decorative metalized yarns and braids, with outer wrap of metalized strip/yarn, and inner core of some other material... Core of rubber thread, outer covering of braided metalized strip/yarn... Core of rubber thread, outer covering of gimped metalized strip/yarn(i. e., metalized strip/yarn is wrapped, not braided, around the rubber core). If the item is twisted or braided around a core, describe the core material.

Guipage. L'opération de guipage consiste à recouvrir un fil auquel on a donné le nom d'«âme» par un fil ou filé de toute sorte, l'enrobant. Ce recouvrement peut être effectué de deux façons : - par une succession de couches de fil enroulées en spirales autour d'un fil d'âme; - par une succession de mailles formées par un fil ou un filé, empilées les unes sur les autres à l'intérieur desquelles se place le fil d'âme. [...] On peut différencier deux types de fils [...] : a) le fil en âme, b) la fibre en âme.
