Q2: Bicomponent texturing Flashcards

Q
Bicomponent texturing
A
In the section on bicomponent yarns in the CLO2601 module, it was mentioned that this can also be used as a method of texturing. Two types of the same generic fibre, for example, two types of nylon, are extruded simultaneously. One type will shrink more on cooling than the other, and since they now cling together to form one filament, the filament will curl or kink.
