A protective glove includes a primary yarn that forms the palm, thumb and finger sections of the glove. The primary yarn has an interior surface forming the interior surface of the glove, and an exterior surface forming the exterior surface of the glove. A plaiting yarn can be plaited to portions of the exterior surface of the primary yarn to form a plurality of enhanced sections on the exterior surface of the glove. The enhanced sections can have at least one substantially enhanced physical characteristic in relation to the primary layer.

The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a composite yarn, a method and a device for processing the composite yarn, and protective equipment. The composite yarn comprises a core filament located at a core of the composite yarn; a first multifilament covering in parallel a peripheral surface of the core filament; a water-based adhesive distributed on a surface and inside of the first multifilament, wherein the water-based adhesive on the surface of the first multifilament forms a water-based adhesive layer; a second multifilament covering in parallel a peripheral surface of the water-based adhesive layer; and a single-clad structure layer or a double-clad structure layer covering an outer side of the second multifilament, wherein both the first multifilament and the second multifilament are organic multifilaments or inorganic multifilaments.

Described herein are spun yarns, core spun yarns, and fabrics such as denim fabrics made thereof that contain recycled cotton fibers and recycled para-aramid fibers. The combination of fibers in the yarns and fabrics provide desirable properties such as increased tear strength, breaking strength, and abrasion resistance compared to yarns and fabrics made of 100 wt % cotton.

A cut resistant hydrophobic glove includes a main body portion having a front side and a rear side, the main body portion enclosing the palm and back of a user's hand, finger portions and a thumb portion. The main body portion, the finger portions and the thumb portion are each knitted as a single layer of material formed from a yarn that is a composite yarn having a core constructed of one or more core filaments and a sheath constructed of two or more filaments. At least one of the core filaments is a formed from a high performance material having cut resistant properties and at least one of the sheath filaments is formed from a material exhibiting hydrophobic characteristics. A cut resistant hydrophobic sleeve and a yarn for making the glove and sleeve are disclosed.

The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a composite yarn, comprising: a core filament located at a core of the composite yarn; a first multifilament covering in parallel a peripheral surface of the core filament; a water-based adhesive distributed on a surface and inside of the first multifilament, wherein the water-based adhesive on the surface of the first multifilament forms a water-based adhesive layer; a second multifilament covering in parallel a peripheral surface of the water-based adhesive layer; and a single-clad structure layer or a double-clad structure layer covering an outer side of the second multifilament. The single-clad structure layer includes a short fiber yarn-clad structure layer or a filament-clad structure layer. The double-clad structure layer is a clad structure of short fiber yarns, a clad structure of filaments, or a clad structure of short fiber yarns and filaments. Two layers of clad yarns of the double-clad structure layer are twisted in opposite directions.

A thermal and cut resistant glove includes a main body portion that encloses the palm and back of a user's hand, finger portions and a thumb portion. The glove is knitted as a single layer of material formed from a yarn that is a composite yarn having a core constructed of one or more core filaments and a sheath constructed of two or more filaments. The glove exhibits a temperature differential of no more than about 1.3 degrees C. when the front or rear side of the glove is positioned between a refrigerated cold source and a thermocouple after a period of 15 minutes, exhibits a cut resistance of at least about 3500 grams when measured in accordance with ASTM Standard F2992-15, Standard Test Method for Measuring Cut Resistance of Materials Used in Protective Clothing with Tomodynamometer (TDM-100), exhibits an abrasion resistance of at least 2500 cycles when measured tested in accordance with ASTM Standard D3884-07, Standard Guide for Abrasion Resistance of Textile Fabrics, exhibits a time increase of no more than about 25 percent to perform a stated task when measured in accordance with ASTM Standard F2010-10, Standard Test Method for Evaluation of Glove Effects on Wearer Hand Dexterity.

The present invention relates to a yarn and a yarn forming process, further relates to a protective textile produced by using the yarn and a knitting method therefor, and additionally relates to textile equipment for knitting the protective textile. The present invention discloses a yarn, wherein a core filament of the yarn uses a tungsten wire, which is covered at the center of an outer-layer yarn. A protective textile knitted by using the foregoing tungsten-wire yarn may be obtained by using single-yarn knitting, or by using double-yarn knitting by mixing another yarn. A single shuttle or two-shuttle knitting of the textile equipment may be used in the knitting method. Technical effects of the protective textile are that the protective textile knitted by using the tungsten wire as a core filament has a higher protection level, is lighter and thinner, better fit hand skin, and is operated more flexibly.

The invention provides a core yarn of a tough yarn for knitting and weaving a glove and the other knitted and woven fabric which are suitable for a worker using a cutting tool to wear, are excellent in a flexibility and an economic efficiency, prevent a folded end of a hard fiber from being exposed to apply a sense of discomfort to a wearer, and have a cutting resistance, and a tough yarn which uses the core yarn. A core yarn of a tough yarn is formed by compounding a hard fiber and a molten fiber, and fusion bonding the molten fiber to the hard fiber. Further, the tough yarn is formed by winding a winding yarn to the core yarn. A lower layer fiber may be further included between the hard fiber and the molten fiber.

Provided is a cut resistant glove having stretchability and being superior in the texture and fit while a string made of a metal or glass fiber is prevented from sticking out, irrespective of the gauge number. A cut resistant glove having a glove main body manufactured by plating knitting using a ground yarn and an additional yarn, in which the ground yarn includes a core material, and a cover yarn wound around the core material, the core material having a string made of a metal or glass fiber, and the additional yarn being made of an organic fiber, and in which the ratio of the average thickness of the additional yarn to the average thickness of the ground yarn is no less than 0.9 and no greater than 2.5. The core material preferably further has a support yarn made of an organic fiber arranged along the string.

A glove for use with capacitive touch screen devices features a main body portion, a finger portion and a thumb portion. At least the finger portion of the glove is constructed from a conductive and cut resistant yarn. The conductive and cut resistant yarn preferably includes a core that includes a cut resistant fiber and a sheath that include a conductive fiber.
