- According to a particularly advantageous variant, the third yarn comprises a yarn of high tenacity, i.e. a tenacity of between 40 and 120 cN/tex, preferably about 70 cN/tex.
- Independently of a closed or open coiling of the second covering 22, the yarn could comprise at least a third covering 26, which is superposed on the second covering 22 and comprising a pair of
slivers 40, 40' oryarns 42, 42' that form a closed tubular coating on the second covering 22. - According to a preferred variant, the third covering 26 is obtained by a winding of
slivers 40, 40' comprisingdiscontinuous fibres 44. - For example, the variant that provides for a pair of

slivers 40, 40' oryarns 42, 42' is wound with an "S"-type winding. - According to a further variant, the realisation of the third covering is performed in the same winding direction as the second yarn, placing these fibres at least in the interspaces of the underlying open coiling (when present).
- In this way, the realisation of the third covering involves two concomitant effects, i.e. a distancing of the coils of the first covering and a reduction in the interspaces of the open coiling to receive and hold the aforesaid discontinuous fibres.
-
- According to further variants, irrespective of the type of
filament 10 selected, the first yarn, the second yarn, the sliver and/or the third yarn may be independently selected from the group consisting of polyethylene, polyamide, polyester, (para-)aramide, ultra high molecular weight polyethylene and mixtures thereof. - According to other embodiments, the first yarn, the second yarn, the sliver and/or the third yarn may be independently selected from natural fibres (for example cotton, wool) and mixtures thereof, optionally mixed with the synthetic fibres or with the filaments illustrated above.
- This invention further relates to a fabric or garment comprising a
yarn - Finally, this invention relates to a method for the production of a yarn, preferably for protective fabrics or garments.
- Since this method can be used for the manufacture of the yarn described previously, even if this is not expressly indicated, this method may comprise any manufacturing step deducible - even implicitly - from the structure of the
aforesaid yarn - This method comprises the steps of:
- i) providing at least one continuous or
discontinuous filament 10, which extends along a filament axis X; - ii) coating the
filament 10 with a fluoro-polymer layer 12 by immersing at least part of the filament in a bath of liquid fluoro-polymer, thereby producing acore 8 of saidyarn - iii) when the fluoro-
polymer layer 12 is still wet, winding at least afirst yarn 16 or afirst sliver 18, 18' in a first winding direction so as to make a closed coiling, to obtain a first covering 14 of thefilament 10; - iv) solidifying the fluoro-
polymer layer 12 in order to anchor the first covering 14 to thefilament 10. - According to a preferred variant, in step iii), the winding tension applied to the
first yarn 16 or to thefirst sliver 18, 18' is related to the wetness of the fluoro-polymer layer 12 to obtain a desired incorporation of the yarn or of the sliver, wherein - preferably - at least three quarters of the cross-section of the latter protrudes from the fluoro-polymer layer 12. - Obviously, especially for the variant comprising a sliver, the winding tension must be low enough as not to tear it during winding around the core.
- According to a further preferred variant, step iv) comprises a cross-linking of the fluoro-polymer performed via sub-steps of heating and microwave irradiation to prevent yellowing of the glass filament (where provided).
- In addition, in order to prevent yellowing, in addition to the combined action of heating and irradiation it is advisable that the heating be sufficiently slow.
- Obviously, although for variants with filaments other than glass, the phenomenon of yellowing is less marked, step iv) may, in any case, comprise the cross-linking of the fluoro-polymer via the sub-steps discussed above, since this variant allows combining a satisfactory cross-linking of the polymer layer with an optimal adhesion of the first covering.
- The yarn, fabric/garment and the method of this invention overcome the drawbacks noted in relation to the prior art.
- More precisely, the yarn of this invention shows a high stability, a remarkable workability in weaving the garments and significant wearing comfort for the user.

- Advantageously, in the yarn of this invention, the first covering undergoes a considerable adhesion effect with respect to the filament, so as to prevent the unravelling of the yarn during use or during washing.
- Advantageously, the aforesaid yarn can also be used in chemically corrosive environments.
- Advantageously, the method of this invention allows maintaining intact the properties of the internal core.
