65/35 Polyester Cotton Rotor Spun Yarn Ne 30/1
A rotor-spun single yarn with 65% polyester and 35% cotton, at Ne 30/1 count, suitable for upholstery and sheeting. The polyester content exceeds the cotton, so it is not 'mixed mainly with cotton' for this heading. It is classified under 5510.30.00 only if the artificial staple fibres predominate and the cotton is the secondary component, but here the polyester is the main fibre, so it falls under a different heading.
