Polyester Drawn Textured Yarn (DTY)

Drawn Textured Yarn (DTY) yarn is mainly used in weaving & knitting of fabrics for making clothes, home furnishings, seat covers, bags and many other uses. DTY yarn can be in Semi Dull or Bright or Triloble Bright depending upon the type of sections of filaments. DTY yarn can be made with several combinations of Intermingle points - it can be Non-Intermingle (NIM) having 0 - 10 knots/meter or Semi-Intermingle (SIM) having 40 - 50 knots/meter or High-Intermingle (HIM) having 100 - 120 knots/meter. These knots are not actually the knots tied when two threads are broken but they are the tangle knots created by heating pressure known as Interlaced yarn. Catonic DTY is another variant of Polyester DTY that is mainly used in blankets. Catonic DTY is made from Catonic PET Chips. Polyester DTY yarn can also be obtained in various colors by the dope dyed technology. Dope dyed DTY is usually packed on paper bobbins whereas Raw White DTY that will be used for dyeing is loosely packed on perforated plastic tube.
