Abstract

The article discusses the comparative spinnability of ring- and rotor-spun cotton yarns. Ring-spun yarns produce better correlation coefficients compared to rotor-spun yarns. Regarding the contributions made to this coefficient, for ring-spun yarns, fiber tenacity is the most significant parameter for yarn evenness and tenacity, whereas the fiber length and uniformity ratio impact the breaking elongation. For rotor-spun yarns, the results are more dependent on the yarn linear density. Fiber-breaking elongation influences the yarn parameters more in rotor-spun yarns than the ring-spun variety.
