35、yards per pound of the final strand can be computed bymultiplying the yarn number designation of the single yarn orstrand by 100 to obtain yards per pound for the single yarn orstrand and then dividing by the total number of single yarns orstrands in the final yarn. Actual yardage is less because of

36、organic content and twist take-up during plying.NOTE 2Letter designations for filament diameter averages are shownin Table 1. The yards per pound stated in Table 2 is an approximate yarnnumber.

Continuous Filament Yarns6.1 Descriptions of Continuous Filament YarnsThe de-scription of continuous filament yarns consists of the followingfour segments:Segment 1 Segment 2 Segment 3 Segment 4Glass family Yarn number Construction Twist levelFiber form

39、 Twist directionFiber diameter6.1.1 Segment OneThe parts of Segment one are respec-tively the symbol for the glass family as directed in Section 4;the symbol for fiber form, “C” for Continuous, and a symbolfor average filament diameter range as directed in Table 1.6.1.2 Segment TwoThe second segment

40、 of the descriptionof continuous filament yarns specifies the yarn number of thesingle yarn. For yarns described in SI units, the yarn number isspecified in tex. For yarns described in inch-pound units, theyarn number is specified in hundreds of yards per pound, thatis yards per pound divided by 100

41、.6.1.2.1 Some manufacturing processes are designed specifi-cally to produce yarns consisting of hollow filaments. For theseyarns, the suffix HF is attached to the second segment of theyarn description. For example, 40 HF (125HF) represents a 40tex 125 100 ydlb single yarn consisting of hollow fila-m

42、ents.6.1.3 Segment ThreeThe third segment of the descriptionof continuous filament yarns specifies the number of singleyarns in the complete yarn. For yarn described in SI units, thedescription consists of a count of the single yarns twistedtogether, a lower case multiplication sign or x, and a coun

43、t ofthe twisted yarns plied together to form the final yarn. Foryarns described in inch-pound units, the description consists ofa count of the singles yarns twisted together, a division sign or“/”, and a count of the twisted yarns plied together to form thefinal yarn.NOTE 3If additional stages of pl

44、ying are involved, a lower casemultiplication sign for SI units or a diagonal for inch-pound units,followed by the count of plied yarns being cabled is added for eachadditional cabling step. The total single yarns in the final yarn will alwaysbe the product of all the counts in this segment. When 0

45、(zero) appears asa count it is considered as 1 (one) for multiplication purposes.6.1.4 Segment FourThe fourth segment of the descriptionof continuous filament yarns specifies the twist level anddirection. For yarns described in SI units, the descriptionconsists of an S or Z to show direction of twis

46、t immediatelyfollowed by the twist level in turns per metre (tpm) to thenearest 1 tpm. For yarns described in inch-pound units, thedescription consists of the twist level in turns per inch (tpi) tothe nearest 0.1 tpi immediately followed by an S or Z to showdirection of twist.NOTE 4Twist in turns pe

47、r metre (tpm) equals twist in turns per inch(tpi) times 40. The exact factor 39.37 is rounded to 40 to obtain the twistin turns per metre to the nearest 1 tpm when starting from turns per inchto the nearest 0.1 tpi.6.2 Examples of Descriptions of Continuous FilamentYarns:6.2.1 Example 1a, Singles Ya
