36 Ne cotton yarn is used to produce a square fabric of 101 g/m2, having 10% yarn crimp

Question 84 (Textile Engineering & Fibre Science)

Number of threads per cm in the fabric is approximately

(A)14
(B)28
(C)42
(D)56
[Show Answer]

Option B is correct.
Count of cotton yarn=36s Ne

GSM of square fabric=101 g/m2

Yarn crimp%=10

Number of threads per cm(X)=?

GSM=2 x (1+yarn crimp%) x (0.59/36) x X x 100

101=2 x (1+10%) x (0.59/36) x X x 100

101=2 x 1.1 x 0.0164 x X x 100

X=101/(2 x 1.1 x 0.0164 x 100)

X=101/3.608

X=27.99

Threads per cm=28 (Ans)
