“…Vegetable yarns made by spinning twisted fibers have been studied in the literature. Corbin et al [28] have compared the properties of flax yarns and rovings. The results obtained show that the twisting of the yarns improves the tenacity of the yarns at breakage, as well as the irregularity of the yarn properties which is due to the spinning process.…”

This work aims to investigate the physical and mechanical properties of sisal fiber and yarn of Moroccan origin. The cellulosic and non-cellulosic constituents of the Moroccan sisal fiber were identified by FTIR spectroscopy. The thermal properties were studied by thermogravimetric analysis. The hydrophilicity of the fiber was evaluated by the contact angle. The results show that the sisal fiber has a low thermal stability. The mechanical properties of the fiber analyzed by the Impregnated Fiber Bundle Test (IFBT) method show that the porosity of the impregnated yarns and the twist angle of the yarns influence the elastic modulus of the sisal fiber. The physical and mechanical properties of the manufactured sisal yarns were also characterized and analyzed. The obtained results reveal an interesting potential to use the Moroccan sisal fiber in development of bio-sourced composite materials.

“…For example, in one study, a 3D warp interlock fabrics made with flax rovings had only two distinct breaks. 17 In the case of composite yarns, [2][3][4][5]7,8 the wrapping component has broken before the undulating component. The broken/ruptured parts of the wrapping component were locked into the structure by the intact undulating component and the remaining parts of the ruptured core component.…”

This study reports on the development of a novel form of yarn reinforcement for making super tough, flexible composites. The concept is based on the rupturing of components of the composite yarn many times before totally breaking. The composite yarn structure has a configuration of three main components − helical, straight and sinusoidal. The components are not restricted by the type of raw material, and any type of fibre or blend can be used. Experimentally, the hollow-spindle spinning system was used to make nine variants of this composite yarn. These variants were tested for their tensile behaviour at an extension rate of 250 mm/min. It was found that the core component of two of the nine variants had eight breakages, while the core component of the remaining variants had four to five breakages before the final break of the core component. The main mechanism that allows the core component yarn to break so many times is a locking applied to it by the wrapping yarn during stretching. The gain in strength for these variants was 21–81% in comparison with a typical twistless composite yarn. Flexible composites made of such yarn configurations can find numerous uses in construction, geotextiles, ballistic protective garments, aerospace, automotive and shipping industries.

“…This has attracted the attention of various researchers to understand the mechanical behavior before recommending particular applications. Based on this, various researchers have been intensively investigating not only the final mechanical behavior under static or dynamic loading at the dry and composite reinforcement stages, but also the influence of various factors, including fabric type, fabric architecture, fiber type, yarn density, and weave parameters [ 12 , 13 , 14 ].…”

Fabrication and Mechanical Characterization of Dry Three-Dimensional Warp Interlock Para-Aramid Woven Fabrics: Experimental Methods toward Applications in Composite Reinforcement and Soft Body Armor

Recently, three-dimensional (3D) warp interlock fabric has been involved in composite reinforcement and soft ballistic material due to its great moldability, improved impact energy-absorbing capacity, and good intra-ply resistance to delamination behaviors. However, understanding the effects of different parameters of the fabric on its mechanical behavior is necessary before the final application. The fabric architecture and its internal yarn composition are among the common influencing parameters. The current research aims to explore the effects of the warp yarn interchange ratio in the 3D warp interlock para-aramid architecture on its mechanical behavior. Thus, four 3D warp interlock variants with different warp (binding and stuffer) yarn ratios but similar architecture and structural characteristics were engineered and manufactured. Tensile and flexural rigidity mechanical tests were carried out at macro- and meso-scale according to standard EN ISO 13 934-1 and nonwoven bending length (WSP 90.5(05)), respectively. Based on the results, the warp yarn interchange ratio in the structure revealed strong influences on the tensile properties of the fabric at both the yarn and final fabric stages. Moreover, the bending stiffness of the different structures showed significant variation in both the warp and weft directions. Thus, the interchange rations of stuffer and binding warp yarn inside the 3D warp interlock fabric were found to be very key in optimizing the mechanical performance of the fabric for final applications.
