Covered YarnWhat is covered yarn?
Covered yarns – yarns that consist of at least two yarns. The yarn that is wrapped around gives the looks whereas the core (the fine wire) still provides the functionality (like conductivity).

What is spandex used for?
Spandex is used to make garments where a lot of permanent elasticity is required, e.g. in tights, sportswear, swimwear and corsetry. It is used in garments that are intended to cling to the body, while at the same time remaining comfortable. For this type of garment 15 – 40% spandex is used.

What is air covered yarns?
Air Covered Yarn is a regular intermingled yarn, the covering filament yarn and Spandex are drawn meanwhile from a special jet nozzle where the yarns are air-jetted at regular intervals by high compressed air. The Air-jet Covered Yarn needs sizing for warp knitting and can be used for weft knitting directly.

Where covered yarn is used?
DOUBLE-COVERED YARNS Flat or textured polyamide yarns can be used to create the double covering. Double-covered yarn is used for the high-end and top-quality clothing, lingerie and hosiery markets.

What is T400 yarn?
Lycra T400 fiber is a multi-component yarn in which different polymers are joined together within each filament. Since the crimp is not mechanically induced, Lycra T400 fiber gives greater, more durable stretch and recovery, as well as a softer, smoother hand than textured yarns.

What is nylon spandex fabric?
Nylon Spandex is classified as an elastomeric fiber or merely a fiber or material that can expand over 500% without breaking. Clothes made from Nylon Spandex are more comfortable, even though, they are tight. Nylon Spandex fabric is very much lighter compared to natural rubber that is easier on the skin.

What is nylon spandex?
What is spandex yarn?
Spandex yarn is a man-made elastic fiber developed. It is a manufactured texture material with elastic properties of the sort referred to nonexclusively as “Elastic Yarn”. Spandex yarn is ordinarily used in athletic or dynamic dress. This is known as lycra fetishism. Lycra is regularly one of the textures in tights.

What is air covered spandex yarn?
Air covered yarn is manufactured by creating a physical intermingle of INVIYA? yarn with other synthetic filament like Polyester or Nylon by the help of compressed air applied through a nozzle. INVIYA? is applied during a draw texturizing process of Polyester or Nylon to avoid the extra process of spandex application.

What is covering power in textiles?
Covering power is an expression of the degree to which a yarn imparts cover to a fabric. The waviness of a textured filament yarn. This characteristic may be expressed numerically by the crimp elongation.

How is spandex used in a knitting project?
It is generally used in alternate rows of knit yarn. Finally, the covered yarn can be used in every row – in every thread of the knit – for three dimensional stretch. Covered Spandex is also used. The covering involves wrapping the Spandex in the main yarn in the nylon hosiery, so that the Spandex becomes the yarn core.

Yarn is an extensive continuous length of fibers, which is used in sewing, knitting, textiles, crocheting, embroidery, weaving, and ropemaking. Recycling of cotton is known as recycled yarn, which minimizes unnecessary wastage, and is a more sustainable alternative to disposal. Cotton recycling can be done from textile leftovers and older or earlier used garments. Recycled yarns are used for making carpet, clothes, and furnishing items for car and buildings.

The global recycle yarn market has witnessed significant growth due to upsurge in demand for recycled yarn form home textile, industrial purposes, and apparel. In addition, innovations in production process fuel the growth of the market. However, volatile raw material prices and lack of availability restrain the market growth. Rise in demand for organic-based yarns is expected to provide significant growth potential for the market.

The global recycle yarn market is segmented based on type, application, and geography. On the basis of type, the market is categorized into recycled PET yarn, recycled cotton yarn, and recycled nylon yarn. Carpet, clothing, car, building, and other are the applications of recycle yarn. Geographically, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.

The major players operating in the global market are focusing on key market strategies such as mergers, acquisitions, collaborations, and partnerships.

Air Covered Yarn is a regular intermingled yarn, the covering filament yarn and Spandex are drawn meanwhile from a special jet nozzle where the yarns are air-jetted at regular intervals by high compressed air.

The Air-jet Covered Yarn needs sizing for warp knitting and can be used for weft knitting directly. The production efficiency of Air-Covered Yarn is much higher than Conventional Covered Yarn (also known as SCY – Single Covered Yarn or DCY – Double Covered Yarn) and the price is also much lower, which would reduce much cost for downstream textile company.

Nylon was the first fabric made entirely in a laboratory. A synthetic material derived from petroleum, it first became available around World War II and was used for military products and as a silk replacement for items such as stockings. Now, you’re more likely to find it in activewear, swimwear and other technical performance garments because of its durability and useful stretch properties.

The production of nylon is similar to that of polyester, with similar environmental consequences. Like polyester, nylon is made from a non-renewable resource (oil) in an energy-intensive process. It sheds microplastic fibers that end up in waterways and oceans every time it is washed, and because it is not biodegradable, it will end up sitting in a landfill at the end of its product life cycle.

As an organization, Textile Exchange supports the apparel and textiles sector in switching to preferable materials that have a more positive impact on people and the environment compared to conventional. Recycled nylon is considered a preferred alternative to virgin nylon and bio-based nylons (produced with renewable raw materials) potentially offer a promising alternative.

Recycled nylon is usually made from pre-consumer fabric waste, although it also may come from post-consumer materials such as industrial fishing nets. Several “chain of custody” standards track recycled nylon through the supply chain, including the Recycled Claim Standard (RCS), Global Recycled Standard (GRS) and SCS Recycled Content.

Probably the best-known regenerated nylon product is Econyl, the first post-consumer recycled nylon to hit the market from Italian manufacturer Aquafil. Econyl is made of nylon waste from landfills and oceans in a closed-loop process and is infinitely recyclable. According to Aquafil, Econyl avoids about 50 percent of carbon dioxide emissions and uses about 50 percent less energy compared to nylon recycled yarn.

A high-performance yarn electrode material, cotton/graphene/polyaniline, is synthesized by coating primary fiber cores inside cotton yarns with graphene sheets and followed by further growing polyaniline nanowire array layers through in situ polymerization of aniline. The electron transportation is enhanced by the 3D graphene conductive network on cotton fibers, which further bridges the polyaniline nanowires. The polyaniline nanowires with small diameters ensure high electrochemically active surface area. The spaces within the polyaniline nanowire array layers and the hierarchical pores of the entire yarn electrode benefit the fast electrolyte ion diffusion. The unique 3D yarn electrode structure results in an excellent electrochemical performance.
