Title Yarn setting and hairiness reduction with a steam jet during winding Author(s) Khan, Z. A. Wang X. G. Journal name Fibres and polymers Volume number 10 Issue number 3 Start page 367 End page 370 Publisher Springer Netherlands Place of publication Amsterdam, Netherlands Publication date 2009-04-11 ISSN 1229-9197 1875-0052 Keyword(s) yarn hairiness yarn setting winding steam fibre science Summary This paper examines the use of pressurized steam for wrapping and setting the yarn hairs concurrently via a new steam-jet process during winding. Yarn torque can also be stabilized as an added advantage. The results obtained with two batches of pure wool yarns suggest that there is potential to achieve yarn hairiness reduction of up to 60 % with minimum deterioration in hairiness even after subsequent rewinding.
