How Does the Paraffining Process Affect Yarn Quality

Paraffin application affects not only the surface of the yarn but also its overall quality. When done correctly, it offers many advantages on the production line.

What Proper Paraffin Application Provides:

• Reduces breakage rates
• Prevents fuzziness
• Extends machine life
• Improves fabric surface quality

Possible Consequences of Poor Paraffin Application:

• Insufficient paraffin: Increases friction, stiffens the yarn, and leads to more breakage.
• Excessive paraffin: Causes stickiness in yarn and residue build-up in machines.

Paraffin application must be done optimally in terms of both quantity and type. Otherwise, quality decreases and waste rates increase.
