Abstract

By means of microscopic method the diameter of conventional cotton yarn, spinned from three kinds of cotton, at the specific tensile force up to 5.5 cN/tex was measured. Th decrease of yarn diameter does not occur linearly, but is more obvious up to the load of 4.5 cN/tex. Fibre counts higher than 24 mtex and lengths over 2.9 mm exert no influence on the decrease of diameter, if under the yarns with the same number of twists, spinned from three various kinds of cotton no difference exists in the total medium count of 2 tex. The consequence of relatively short and coarser fibres is a greater decrease of yarn diameter and increase of the coefficient of variation.
