Q

Elongation to break measures

A

how much a material stretches before it breaks.

18
Q

Hydrophobic fibers absorb

A

little moisture

19
Q

hydrophilic fibers absorb

A

moisture readily

20
Q

Small slope in the stress-strain curve means easy to stretch

21
Q

Swimsuit or hosiery should use a fiber with

A

high elongation

22
Q

Yield point is where stress-strain curve begins to

23
Q

. Tenacity refers to

A

stress at which fiber breaks

24
Q

Natural fibers can readily be identified using

25
Wool has how much moisture regain
13-18%
26
materials get stronger when wet
cotton
27
materials get weaker when wet
silk
28
Fibers can have many different cross-sectional shapes
true
29
Polymer properties depend on
chemical composition, degree of polymerization, intermolecular forces, copolymer, and morphology of polymer
30
Biocomponent
Two polymers through different parts of the same spinneret hole to form one fiber
31
Bicomponent filaments can have variable properties depending upon the properties of each polymer component.
true
32
Crystal is a solid that has
regularly repeating internal arrangement of its atoms
33
High crystallinity implies that it is
stiffer, stronger, and harder to dye
34
Dependent upon arrangement, copolymer can be
random, alternating and block formats
35
Yarn is an intermediate product for manufacturing fabric; Thread is a product for joining parts and components
true
36
Filament yarn characteristics can be affected by
filament count, cross-section, etc.
37
Filament yarn size is measured by the
linear density
38
Denier shows several parameters
number of piles, denier per ply, and number of filaments
39
. Increase in yarn stretch can lead to a
greater elongation and recovery
40
Thermoplastic polymers can be melt spun into
continuous filaments.
