73.What is air jet Spinning ?

Ans : Air-jet spinning is one of the new spinning techniques that can produce core-spun yarns.
This process employs an air-jet to rotate the fibre strands and twist them into a yarn.

74.What is Rotor Spinning ?

Ans : rotor spinning (a type of open-end spinning), in which fibres are detached from the card
sliver and twisted, within a rotor, as they are joined to the end of the yarn.

known as break spinning or rotor spinning.

79.What is Dry Spinning ?

Ans : The process in which a solution of the fiber-forming substance is extruded in a continuous
stream into a heated chamber to remove the solvent, leaving the solid filament, as in the
manufacture of acetate.

80.What is Gel Spinning ?

Ans : A spinning process in which the primary mechanism of solidification is the gelling of the
polymer solution by cooling to form a gel filament consisting of precipitated polymer and
solvent. Solvent removal is accomplished following solidification by washing in a liquid bath.
The resultant fibers can be drawn to give a product with high tensile strength and modulus.

81.What is Melt Spinning?

Ans : The process in which the fiber-forming substance is melted and extruded into air or other
gas, or into a suitable liquid, where it is cooled and solidified, as in the manufacture of polyester
or nylon.

82.What is Phase-Separation Spinning?

Ans : Extrusion of polymer and solvent at high temperature into a cooling zone. During the
cooling process, a phase separation occurs, usually accompanied by crystallization of the
solvent. Solvent can be removed before or after drawing.

83.What is Reaction Spinning?

Ans : Process in which an initial prepolymer is formed and then extruded into a reagent bath
where polymerization and filament formation occur simultaneously. Spandex fibers can be
made by this process.

84.What is Wet Spinning?

Ans : The process in which a solution of the fiber-forming substance is extruded into a liquid
coagulating medium where the polymer is regenerated, as in the manufacture of viscose or
cuprammonium rayon.

85.What is SPINNING FRAME ?

Ans : A machine used for spinning staple yarn. It drafts the roving to the desired size, inserts
twist, and winds the yarn onto a bobbin. The term is generally used to indicate a ring spinning
frame, although it does cover flyer spinning and cap spinning on the worsted system.

86.What is SPINNING SOLUTION ?

Ans : A solution of a fiber-forming polymer (e.g., cellulose acetate) in a suitable condition to be
extruded by either dry spinning or wet spinning.

87.What is SPINNING TWIST?

Ans : The twist added to yarn during spinning to give it strength and other desired
characteristics.

88.What is TWILO PROCESS?

Ans : A spinning process in which yarn is made by binding fibers with an adhesive, then
removing the adhesive after the yarn is made into fabric.

89.Ans : What is FLYER SPINNING ?

Ans : A method of spinning by means of a driven flyer. It is used primarily for spinning worsted
and coarser yarns. (Also see FLYER, 1.)

90.What is POT SPINNING?

Ans : A method formerly used for making viscose rayon. The newly spun yarn was delivered
into the center of a rapidly rotating, centrifugal pot, where it received twist and centrifugal force
caused it to go to the wall of the pot. The yarn package so formed was called a cake.
