Tarpaulin classification

Tarpaulin classification Tarpaulin is usually divided into two categories: coarse tarpaulin and fine tarpaulin. Coarse tarpaulin, also known as tarpaulin, is a strong and foldable fabric with good waterproof performance. It is used for covering automobile transportation and open warehouses, as well as for tents in the field. After dyeing, it can also be used as shoes, travel bags, backpacks and other fabrics. In addition, there are rubber tarpaulins, shielding tarpaulins for fire and radiation protection, and tarpaulins for paper machines. 1. Yarn count: Yarn count in short, refers to the thickness of the yarn, which is commonly used in China or 'Imperial', that is: a pound (454 grams) of cotton yarn (or other component yarns), length 2, density : The calculation unit of tarpaulin fabric density is in metric system, which refers to the number of warp and weft yarns arranged within 10cm. The size of the density directly affects the physical and mechanical indicators such as the appearance, feel, thickness, strength, folding resistance, air permeability, abrasion resistance and thermal insulation performance of the fabric, and it is also related to the cost and production efficiency of the product. (1) Indirect test method This method is suitable for fabrics with high density and small yarn characteristics. First, after analyzing the fabric structure and the number of weave loops (the number of weft loops), and then multiplying the number of weave loops in 10cm, the product obtained is the warp (weft) yarn density. (2) Direct measurement method The direct measurement method is completed by means of a cloth mirror or a fabric density analysis mirror. The length of the scale of the fabric density analysis mirror is 5cm. Under the analysis lens, a long glass piece is engraved with a red line. When analyzing the fabric density, move the lens and align the red line on the glass piece and the red line on the scale at the same time. Between the yarns, take this as the starting point, and count the yarns while moving the lens until the 5cm scale line is this. The number of output yarns is multiplied by 2, which is the density value of 10cm fabric. When counting the number of yarns, take the center between the two yarns as the starting point. If the count reaches the end, it exceeds 0.5, and when it is less than one, it should be counted as 0.75. If it is less than 0.5, then 0.25 root count. Generally, 3-4 data should be measured for fabric density, and then the arithmetic mean value should be taken as the measurement result. 3. Gram weight: Gram weight: refers to the weight in grams of one square meter of fabric. Woven tarpaulin fabrics use 'ounces', 'an' or 'OZ'. Knitted tarpaulins generally use gram weight (g/m2). Its conversion is 1 ounce is equal to 28.375 grams, but it is generally 28.35 grams on a weighing machine, depending on the yarn count. It is related to the warp and weft density of the fabric. The thicker the yarn, the thicker the cloth and the greater the gram weight.
