The diameter of the cotton yarn helps to determine the density of the yarn composition of the fabric, or the coverage of a certain yarn to produce a fabric.

The linear density of the yarn is equal to the number of fibers multiplied by the average linear density of the fibers.

For example: Ny = M 5 Nf

Ny = linear density of yarn

Nf = fiber linear density

M = number of fibers on the cross section of the yarn

In order to facilitate the calculation of the density and coverage of the fabric in the future, the diameter of the cotton yarn is now listed:
