In an earlier paper^ the relationship between the twist and resistance to repeated extensions of man-made-fibre rotor-spun yarns was studied. The present note is intended to complete the study with regard to cotton rotor-spun yarns. Two yarns, of 25 and 40 tex, respectively, were studied for twist multipliers ranging from 103 to 221. The effective length of the cotton used was 30.5 mm, its average length 24.2 mm, its short-fibre content 21%, and its Micronaire index 4.03. A second-drawframe sliver from this cotton was fed to an F-72 rotor in a BD200 machine. As already indicated, two yarns were spun, these being of 25 and 40 tex. In the first case, a 3.07-ktex sliver was fed in, the total draft being 121.55 (the actual yarn linear density was 25.26 tex). In the second case, a 4.67-ktex sliver was fed in, and the total draft was 116.02, this being equivalent to an actual yarn linear density of 40.22 tex. The twist multipliers applied were 103.3, 132.4, 149.4, 175.5, and 109.9 in the first case and 103.3, 132.0. 148.9, 190.3. and 221.0 in the second. In both cases, there were end-breaks in the spinning frame at the lowest twist level (two breaksandonebreakperlOOOmof yarn, respectively). The rotor speed was 30000 r/min. Testing for repeated extensions was done, as in the work reported previously', on the Comptiss instrument, with a test length of 300 mm, the tension applied to the yarn being 1.5 cN/tex, the amplitude of the extension cycle 5 mm (1.66% of the relative extension), and the frequency 200 cycles/min. Work was done under standard conditions of relative humidity and temperature, and 30 samples of each yarn were tested. The results, expressed as the mean number of extension cycles to break, are graphically represented in Fig. 1 for both resistance and elongation at break. It is shown in Fig. I that the resistance to repeated extensions of cotton rotor-spun yarns tends to increase as the twist increases. In neither of the two cases is the presence
