Abstract
Chenille yarn is a popular fancy yarn and has found widespread use. It is accepted that the main problem of chenille yarn is loss of mass from abrasion. This study examines the mass loss from both theoretical and practical consideration. It is shown that the compressive force on pile yarn fibres increases and the contact area between pile and lock yarn through which compressive forces are transmitted decreases, as pile yarn count (Ne) increases.
