Frictional Strength of Entanglement of Interlaced Yarns

Abstract

In order to make the frictional strength of entanglement of interlaced yams clear, interlaced yarns were subjected to iterative frictional forces by reciprocating rubbers and afterward their number of tangles was measured. The frictional strength of entanglement is defined as the ratio of the number of residual tangles to that of original ones. The number of fractions, friction angle, static tension, friction speed, and kind of yarns were used as experimental factors. As a result, when the number of fractions, friction angle, static tension and friction speed are large, tangling parts are easily destroyed. The yarn with more filaments or larger fineness shows a larger frictional strength of entanglement.
