Manufacture and Evaluation of Auxetic Yarns and Woven Fabrics

Auxetic materials are a type of novel materials exhibiting negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) with potentials for special applications. Herein, the aim is to optimize the auxetic yarn and fabric manufacturing processes, establish the understanding of the influence of yarn and fabric parameters on the auxeticity of the engineered materials and explore the potential applications of auxetic textile materials. The auxetic yarns are manufactured based on a conversional helical structure composing initially a super elastic polyurethane core and a high modulus Nylon 6,6 binder. A hollow spindle machine is used to produce the auxetic yarn with optimized twisting and delivery speeds. Stable helical yarns with auxetic properties are manufactured using the optimized parameters, and woven fabrics are produced from the selected auxetic yarns in both warp and weft directions. Experiments show that the maximum NPR of helical auxetic yarns reaches a remarkable level of −5.6, and the auxetic fabrics display notable geometric changes compared with the nonauxetic fabrics with the same structural parameters. The auxeticity demonstrated in the fabrics implies applications in areas such as filtration and impact protection.
