What Is Polyester DTY Yarn?

Polyester DTY is a spun yarn made from polyester poy (polyester pre-oriented yarn) that is used for textile and knitting. It is widely used in the garment industry, upholstery, bedding, furniture, and home decoration. The major features of this yarn include good heat insulation, abrasion resistance, high bulkiness, and good resilience. Besides, this yarn can be processed into various types of simulated silk fabrics.

To produce this yarn, the pre-oriented fiber is processed by three methods, which are drawing, twisted, and de-twisting. In this process, the polymer poy is separated into cross sections of different sizes and shapes, and then textured to obtain the desired texture. This method produces a yarn that has a higher degree of orientation than conventional spinning.

Besides, this yarn can be used for weaving or knitting. Depending on the application, the yarn can be twisted to a maximum of four thousand twists per minute. Consequently, the polyester DTY has good resilience and heat insulation. Therefore, it is suitable for outer and inner garments. Moreover, it is also ideal for constructing skin-cling garments.

Polyester DTY is one of the most popular polyester yarns, which has a variety of uses and applications. Specifically, it can be used to make a wide range of simulated silk fabrics, such as, shawls, scarves, robes, and clothing. There are also many other applications for this yarn. For example, it can be woven to make seat covers, curtains, shaggy machine carpets, and luggage. Furthermore, it can also be used to create various types of embroidered threads.

This type of polyester yarn is made from semi-opaque polyester chips, and it can be divided into three categories, namely, Bright, Semi-dull, and Trilobal bright. Among these, the Trilobal bright has triangular cross-sections. These yarns are commonly used to produce a wide variety of colored fabric. Other products, including air textured and draw textured, can also be produced from this type of yarn.

Despite its low crystallinity, the polyester poy is a highly elastic fabric with good storage stability and wrinkle-resistant properties. Thus, it is often used for making polyester high-elastic DTY.

Compared to FDY, the polyester POY has higher elongation and better resilience. It can be pulled longer, and its abrasion resistance is also better. Additionally, this yarn has good heat insulation, and a high uniformity. It is suitable for warp-knitting fabrics, such as, corduroy, mercerized fleece, and five-piece satin. Hence, it is very popular for use in the automotive interiors, plush toys, and home furnishings.

With its unique texture, this yarn is ideal for creating a wide range of fabrics. However, it is important to remember that this yarn can only be twisted to a certain level, and it needs to be stretched a bit before it can be woven into fabrics. Because of its flexibility, it is suitable for a variety of patterned and textured fabrics.

Polyester DTY is mainly used in the apparel industry, but it can also be used in industrial and automobile industries. In fact, it is the perfect raw material for making clothing and woven fabrics.
