The lateral compression property of yarn influences the material properties of fabrics to large extent. In weaving, the warp and weft yarns are compressed. The high performance fibers uslike parachute fabrics, bullet proof vest etc., are also subjected to compressive forces during applications.

Fiber fineness influences both the strength and irregularity of yarns. The micronaire measurement employs the theory of flow of air through a porous medium. When air under constant pressure is allowed to pass through fixed mass of fiber compressed in a cylinder of fixed dimensionsof flow air is found to depend on the resistances offered by fibrous plug. Cotton fibers of around 10gms are weighted, the fibers are inserted into the testing chamber and the cover is pressed. The micronaire value is noted manually. 2.3 Process Flow Chart To study the effect of sliver pre-compression on properties of rotor spun yarn, the sliver was passed through a pre-compression unit before its entry into opening roller rotor spinning frame.

Parameters like motor type, speed, driver and driven pulley diameter were carefully chosen as to keep the surface speed of bottom fluted roller at around 8inchesxper minute, which is the normal rate at which the sliver is being fed in this rotor machine. The apparatus mounted along the path of the sliver. Attention was given so as not to stretch the sliver by any means. The sliver is loaded by applying dead weight pan which is hooked to the top roller. Loads can be changed by directly changing the weight on the weight pan. The top roller is negatively driven due to the frictional contact with the bottom roller.

Uster tester 4 is used to test imperfections of the yarn. UsterTensojet 4 is used to test the single yarn tenacity and elongation. Zweigle hairiness tester is used to test the protruding hair count distribution of the yarn. The conditioning of samples in standard atmosphere has been maintained throughout the study. 2.6 Determination of Yarn Evenness and Imperfections by UT4 The yarn delivered from the rotor frame is passed through the measuring slot of evenness tester which works on the principle of capacitance. Finalresults arrived from the tester are unevenness% and imperfections. Generally thin (and neps(+200%) are taken into consideration for rotor spun yarn. The testing speed is for 400mpm and testing time is 1 min for each test. 2.7 Determination of Yarn Hairiness by Zwigle Tester The condition yarn under standard testing atmosphere is then passed through the Zwigle hairiness tester which works on the optical principle. The image of the protruding fibers from the surface of the yarn arecaptured and sensed by array of detectors. Then it is accounted in a corresponding segment to get the values with the range of 1 to 12mm. Generally S3 value (total number of protruding hairs above 3mm length) is taken into consideration for hairiness measurement.
