Fiber Formulae

Name	Description
Micronaire value of cotton (Micrograms per inch)	Average weight of 1 inch of fibre in Micrograms (1/1000,000 gms)
Denier (for man-made fibres)	Weight in gms per 9000 metres of fibre
Micron (micro-metre) (μm) (fibre diameter) (normally for Wool)	0.001 mm
Denier	0.354 x Micronaire value
Micronaire Value	2.824 x Denier
Fibre diameter ( μ )	11.3 x √ ( dtex / sp.gr) = 11.9 x √ (den / sp.gr)
Tenacity values: Kg / mm2	9 x (g/den) x Sp.gr. = RKM value x Sp.gr. = (g/tex) x Sp.gr.

Tenacity Conversion

Tenacity Conversions (Free Strength) g = gms

	g/den	g/tex	g/dtex	cN/tex
g/den	1	( g/tex ) / 9	( g/dtex ) x 10 / 9	( cN/tex ) x 0.113
g/tex	( g/den ) x 9	1	( g/dtex ) x 10	( cN/tex ) x 1.02
g/dtex	( g/den ) x 0.9	( g/tex ) / 10	1	( cN/tex ) x 0.102
cN/tex	( g/den ) / 0.113	( g/tex ) / 1.02	( g/dtex ) / 0.102	1
