Abstract
A textile multi-filament yarn having individual filaments cohered together at least in part by individual interfilamentary bridges, which bridges are disposed within the multi-filament yarn to join the filaments thereof so as to render the yarn structurally frozen so that at least a part of the individual filaments cannot be pulled apart without breaking at least in part the structure of the multi-filament yarn. The bridges are made of the same material as the filaments. Some of the segments of individual filaments between consecutive interfilamentary bridges can be of different length.

A textile multi-filament yarn comprising individual filaments cohered together at least in part by individual interfilamentary bridges, said interfilamentary bridges being disposed within said multi-filament yarn and joining the filaments thereof so as to render the yarn structurally frozen so that at least a part of the individual filaments cannot be pulled apart without breaking at least in part the structure of the multi-filament yarn, said bridges being made of the same material as said filaments, some of the segments of individual filaments between two consecutive interfilamentary bridges being of different length.
