Metallic sulfide coated travelers, methods of coating travelers, and systems for use of metallic sulfide coated travelers

摘要

Provided are metallic sulfide coated travelers, particularly tungsten disulfide coated travelers, methods of forming metallic sulfide coated travelers, and systems for use of metallic sulfide coated travelers. The metallic sulfide coating results in reduced yarn loading on the coated travelers, reduced heat generation during the spinning operation, and reduced wear of the traveler.
