See DetailsWhat exactly is polyester yarn? Pure polyester yarn is created by spinning pure polyester yarn with a flat-ended needle. The needle, which is threaded, contains several layers of thick polyester yarn. The layers are called threads. There are different kinds of threads. There are also various kinds of threads.
The threads have different sizes. There are cotton threads in standard size. The thread size can be from six to nine. There are also medium-sized fibers in varying thread sizes. Long fibers have a thread size of around fifty millimeters-fifty six to seventy millimeters-fifty nine to one hundred eighty millimeters-thirty one to one hundred ninety millimeters. Threads that are smaller than this are called microfiber threads.
Long fiber fibers have a very long diameter. They are called double-sided threads. The diameter depends on the kind of fiber being used. Some threads have a diameter of up to nine millimeters and some fibers have a diameter of around sixty millimeters. These fibers are called super absorbent threads. These threads are good in making fleece because of their strength and because they have a very high density which makes them ideal as a protective coating for fleece.
Polyester Yarn has two types of fiber that are used in the manufacture of polyester yarns. One type is known as exterior grade fiber. This type of fiber is used for making clothes that have a smooth finish. Exterior grade fiber can have a density of two hundred grams per inch and can have a ten percent cross-section. High grade fibers have a density of around fifteen grams per inch and have a cross section density of less than one hundred grams per inch.
Some polyester yarns have a lower density. The materials with lower densities are better suited for products that need to retain their shape, like dresses and sweaters. Products that are intended to be Machine washed should have fibers that are low in density. The higher the polyester content in the fabric, the more it will retain its shape when washed. The fewer the threads, the shorter the fabric.
Some fabrics need extra treatments after manufacturing to make them shrink and form more like fabric. Dyeing is a common method of creating special fabrics with a low density. Other methods include layering and stiffening. There are two kinds of filaments made from polyester yarns. The common of these fabrics is pet fibers, which are used in shirts, sports wear, swimsuits, and industrial wear.
Polyester yarns also come in a range of natural colours. They come in the full colour range as well as shades of white and natural colours. The colours are produced by a process called dyeing, where the threads are dipped into a solution containing the dye. After about twelve hours the solution dries, revealing the dyed polyester yarn.
Some of Polyester Yarns can be Machine-washed. This is true of woven fabrics, but the process uses heat to permanently bond the fibres to the fabric. Dyeing does not work well on fabrics that are already wet. Polyester yarn cannot be dyed once it has been soaked, so it is to avoid using polyester yarn in any situation where it will become damp or receive water.
Some polyester yarns do not have a natural shine to them. These fabrics are referred to as laminate fabrics, and they tend to be quite fragile, especially when combined with other fabrics. However, some companies have developed new finishes for their polyester yarns that solve this problem. As polyester yarns are a natural fiber, they can be bleached or dyed, but they will not change their fibre structure, colour or strength.
A final consideration when purchasing polyester yarn is the processing method for the raw material it is made from. In the case of virgin polyester, the threads are spun by hand at high speeds. High temperatures are used, which causes the threads to become less elastic, and more prone to ripping. In the case of raw polyester, the threads are spun at moderate speeds in an industrial extrusion Machine. The process minimises any potential damage to the fabric and ensures that the resulting yarn is as strong and durable as possible.
The strength and durability of any fabric depends largely on the fibre and the thickness of the fibres. In the case of polyester, the thread count and the denier (the density of the yarn) are important factors in determining the quality of the finished product. Thread count refers to the number of threads per square inch, denier refers to the thickness of the fibres per square inch, and the thickness of the threads and the fibres per square inch is primarily related to the manufacturing process. Typically, the higher the denier, the higher the quality of the finished product. Typically, thread counts up to 40 are suitable for fine cardigan sweater dresses while anything higher might require the purchase of either extra threads or a thicker fibre.
