Abstract

Intermingling is one of the best alternative methods to make the filament yarns more resistant against high volume stress. This technique has started to replace conventional methods such as sizing and twisting. The intermingling process mixes multifilament yarns along with entanglement points and open parts by turns throughout the length of the yarns. This process makes tensile value of multifilament yarns entirely different from the component of separate filaments. Knot numbers and stability are generally mentioned to describe the intermingling quality in a multifilament yarn. In accordance with these parameters, statistical results demonstrated that machine speed and yarn type have a statistically significant effect on the knot number and tensile strength; however singly machine speed parameter has no considerable effect on the tensile strength. This study tries to define the effect of commingling on the filament yarn strength.
