- Abstract
In the scope of the study, the effect of fiber blending ratio, yarn count and twist factor on fiber migration, packing density and diameter of the cotton/acrylic blended yarns were investigated. The yarn samples with 75/25%, 50/50%, 40/60% cotton/acrylic blending ratios were produced with three different yarn numbers; 20/1 Ne, 24/1 Ne, 30/1 Ne and three twist factors; 3.5 ae, 4 ae, 4.5 ae. Thus, totally 27 yarn samples were obtained. The yarn cross-sectional samples were sliced with microtome. The image frames of yarn cross-sections were acquired via digital microscope. The yarn packing density was calculated by using image processing algorithm and the fiber migration was determined via cross-section images. The results were evaluated statistically. When the results of the study were examined, it was seen that the yarn blend ratio, twist factor and yarn count have a significant effect on the yarn packing density and diameter properties. According to fiber migration analyze results, it was revealed that the acrylic fiber distributed toward the yarn surface with (+) sign index values and cotton fiber distributed to core of the yarn with (-) sign index values for all yarn counts and twist factors of 40/60 and 50/50 cotton/acrylic blend ratios.
