ABOUT THE BOOK

Texturising—Defects, Causes, Effects, Remedies and Prevention through Quality Management is an essential technical manual for textile engineers and professionals in the man-made fiber industry. Texturising is the process that transforms flat, synthetic filaments (like polyester and nylon) into bulky, crimped, and "breathable" yarns that mimic the comfort of natural fibers.

This book serves as a "troubleshooting bible" for the shop floor. It meticulously categorizes common issues such as:

• Physical Defects: Issues like tight spots, loops, snow (polymer dust), and broken filaments.
• Dyeing Defects: The dreaded "barre" effect (stripiness) and shade variations that often only appear after the fabric is finished.
• Mechanical Analysis: How tension, temperature, and twist settings on DTY (Draw Textured Yarn) machines directly correlate to yarn quality.

What makes this work unique is its Quality Management approach. Instead of just fixing problems, the authors apply frameworks like TQM (Total Quality Management) and Statistical Quality Control to prevent defects at the source, ensuring high-yield and consistent production.
