Composite yarn including a staple fiber covering a filament yarn component and confining the filament yarn component to a second thickness that is less than a first thickness of the filament in a relaxed state and a process for producing the same

摘要

A method for manufacturing a composite yarn of staple fibers and continuous multifilament yarn. The multifilament yarn is made from non- set, textured, no oil, polyester and first pretensioned before entering a spinning chamber where it is co-spun with the staple fibers which is made from pima cotton. The tension is relaxed after passing through the spinning chamber to allow the filaments of the yarn to expand and form a matrix to which the staple fibers can adhere. The expanded filaments cause the staple fibers to be tightly wound around the core. A composite yarn is also disclosed.
