EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE AND DRAW-RATIO ON FORCE-EXTENSION PROPERTIES OF TWISTED FIBERS,

Abstract

When single fibers are twisted under constant tension before testing, a decrease in strength is observed. This reduction in strength is generally small with fibers having low orientation (low draw-ratio) and increases as the draw-ratio increases. The difference in the strength resulting from twist is negatively correlated with temperature. (Author)
