Teach you to understand fabric yarn count and density

What meaning does the yarn count and density of fabric represent? It may not be very clear to the non-fabric industry or the people who have just entered the industry. Today Hayida textile will explain the definition of yarn count and density of fabric for you.

Yarn count, yarn count is a way of said, often in "constant weight" (this calculation method is divided into metric count and imperial count two) of the imperial count (S), namely: in male (8.5%), under the condition of moisture regain weight in for a pound of yarn, how many each twisted yarn length of 840 yards, is how many count. The count depends on the length and weight of the yarn. For example, a catty of cotton made into 30 1 meter length of yarn, that is 30; One catty of cotton is made into 40 yarns of 1 meter length, that is 40 pieces; One jin of cotton is made into 60 yarns of 1 meter length, that is 60 pieces. So the higher the number of yarn, the finer the yarn, the better the uniformity, the thinner the cloth, the softer and more comfortable the cloth. Obviously, the higher the count of cloth, the higher the quality of raw materials, and the higher the requirements for the mill and the textile mill, so the higher the cost of cloth. Generally speaking, more than 30S is called high-count yarn, (20s-30s) for medium-count yarn, and less than 20S for low-count yarn. (PS: 840 yards, 768 meters, 1 pound, 0.45 kg)

Textile fabrics

Density: Refers to the number of warp and weft threads per square inch arranged, also known as warp and weft density. Usually expressed as "number of warp threads * number of weft". Common density such as 110* 90,128 * 68,65 * 78,133 *73, textile fabric per square inch warp are 110, 128, 65, 133; There are 90, 68, 78 and 73 weft threads.
