摘要

It is considered that the strength of the ply yarn consisting of continuous filaments mainly depends on the properties of the single yarn and the cohesion forces among the single yarns, thus a mathematical model with relatively few parameters under given assumptions is established to predict the tensile strength of a two-ply yarn from single filament yarn. Relative relationships of the tensile force part and the interaction part are developed, respectively. The single yarn is tested to obtain fundamental data e.g. yarn strength and breaking elongation. After two strands of filament yarns are twisted into the ply yarns under different twist levels, the tensile strength, breaking elongation and structure parameters are measured or calculated for verifying the model later. Finally, the results show good agreement with the experimental values, and this model can be used to predict the performance of the finished strand yarns in actual productions.
