PP Multifilament yarn

Multifilament yarn

In the assortment of polymeric products of Kharkiv Plant “Polymercontainer” you can also buy a multifilament yarn of different colors.

This type of yarn contains polypropylene as its fundamental. This artificial material gives the yarn resistance, which increases its service life and quality characteristics. In addition, the polymer base allows increasing the required properties by adding various extrudants and stabilizers.

Unlike a monofilament yarn, which is a single strand, a multifilament thread is divided into thin fibers in a longitudinal section. One strand can contain up to 200 fibers. Such amount provides increased durability and adds smoothness and shine to the final goods.

Yarn production

A yarn is formed by fluxing polypropylene into small pieces that then are woven back together. Depending on the application area and the required characteristics, special additives can be added to a yarn during manufacture.

As a result, the yarn becomes more resistant to atmospheric and climatic changes: water resistance, minimization of temperature extremes effects or ultraviolet radiation. It also can reduce the level of negative chemical exposure.

Kharkiv Plant “Polymercontainer” offers a wide color range of multifilament yarn.

The density can vary from 22 to 333 tex (or in other words, from 200 to 3300 den). Thanks to such range, multifilament yarn has become popular in many manufacturing fields.

Application areas of yarn
