In this paper, friction of air-jet textured yams is investigated. Using a friction measuring apparatus fabricated inhouse, dynamic friction forces of the yams under yarn-to-metal (YM) and yam-to-yam (YY) rubbing modes are measured. The influence of processing variables of air-jet texturing viz., overfeed, air pressure, dry/wet texturing and normal/core-and-effect texturing on dynamic friction is analysed. The results indicate that friction force increases with increasing rubbing speeds and yam input tension. YM dynamic friction decreases initially and then starts to increase at higher overfeeds. YY dynamic friction increases with increasing overfeed. YM dynamic friction decreases with an increase in air pressure while an opposite trend is observed for YY friction. Wet textured yams have higher friction than dry textured yams. Core wetted coreand-effect textured yams have higher friction than normal textured yams.

An investigation of the dimensionless torque in the newly developed cone drum twister texturing mechanism is reported. The cone drum twister is one of the outer surface contacting friction-twisting devices in false-twist texturing. In this cone drum twister, a filament yam passes over the surface of the cone drum that rotates by the passing yarn without a special driving device. This research is composed of the theoretical analysis of the false twisting mechanism and the experimental analysis at room temperature. The equations have been derived which shows interrelationship of the conical angle of cone drum, the wrapping angle, the drag angle, and the yam helix angle. Theoretical values of dimensionless torque were calculated and were compared with the experimental results. It is shown that, as the conical angle and the projected wrapping angle increased, the dimensionless torque also increased. But the conical angle was reached to ${30.75}^{\circ}C$, the dimensionless torque decreased.

The newly developed cone drum twister is one of the outer surface contacting friction-twisting devices in false-twist texturing. An investigation of the drag angle for the newly developed cone drum twister texturing mechanism is reported. An analysis is given from which equations can be derived that relate to the conical angle of cone drum, wrapping angle, drag angle, and yam helix angle. Theoretical values of drag angle are calculated and discussed. It is shown that, as the helix angle and the projected wrapping angle increases, the drag angle also increases slowly until the helix angle of $40^{\circ}$ but after the helix angle of $40^{\circ}$ the drag angle increases rapidly. Furthermore the higher the projected wrapping angle and conical angle, the higher the drag angle of friction surface.

본 연구에서는 Kevlar 직물에 전단농화 특성을 갖는 나노 실리카 입자를 함침시켜 저속충격 특성 및 마찰특성 실험을 수행하였다. 나노입자의 크기에 따른 영향력을 평가하기 위해 100nm, 300nm, 500nm 직경크기의 구형 실리카 입자를 충진한 전단농화유체를 제작하였으며 유변물성 시험을 통해 전단담화 현상 및 급격히 점성이 증가하는 전단농화현상을 확인하였다. 전단농화유체를 Kevlar 직물에 함침시켜 저속 낙하 충격시험을 수행한 결과 나노입자 처리를 한 Kevlar 직물에서 우수한 충격흡수 특성을 보였으며 특히 함침된 나노입자의 크기가 작을수록 충격흡수양이 증가하였고 변형의 양도 가장 적게 나타났다. Kevlar 직물 내에서의 얀의 Pull-out 실험과 직물간 마찰력 실험을 통해 나노입자의 크기가 작을수록 전단농화 현상으로 인한 마찰력의 증가가 더욱 크게 나타남을 확인하였다. 이러한 마찰력의 증가가 얀의 Pull-out 에너지를 증가시키게 되어 주요 충격흡수 메커니즘으로 작용하게 되는 것이다.
