Conclusions
A decrease in the linear density of the elementary filaments essentially does not affect the physicomechanical properties of complex viscose yarns. However, with decrease in the linear density of the elementary filaments, important changes are observed in properties which determine their wear resistance; durability against repeated double bends is increased, but the resistance to abrasion is reduced.
The use of complex viscose yarns having a reduced elementary filament linear density aids in the preparation of fabrics with greater covering power, which creates conditions for reducing the volume of material.
