Conclusions

In twisting complex yarns based on CMC, the plasticizing role of water is more noticeable than in twisting viscose yarns.

The dependence of the breaking load of twisted CMC yarns on degree of twist has an extreme character, with a maximum at a twist of 150–200 twists/m.

A number of medico-biological properties of reabsorbable surgical CMC yarns (capillarity, swellability, diameter, elasticity) depend on the degree of twist, a twist of 320–350 twists/m being optimal.
