The influence of dyeing and spinning on the characteristics of cotton fibers and its impact on the properties of cotton mélange yarn has been investigated. Grey cotton fibers with mean fiber length and fineness of 29 mm and 4.2 micronair were pre-treated and dyed. Three ring yarns were spun from 100 % grey cotton (R.R.Y), 50-50 % blend of dyed and grey cotton (M.R.Y) and 100 % dyed cotton fiber...

Stickiness is the physical process of contaminated lint adhering to equipment. The degree of stickiness depends on chemical identity, quantity, and distribution of the sugars. The sugar in cotton fibers may be insect or plant derived. There are several methods for measuring cotton fibers stickiness. In this work, a colorimetric method was used for the measurements. In the method, honeydew was c...

In this work, raw fibers of a local species of stabraq (milkweed) were scoured, bleached and blended with cotton fibers with a ratio of 75/25 (cotton/stabraq). The improved stabraq fibers, scoured and bleached cotton and the blended fibers were spun into fine yarns and then they were subjected to dyeing with two types of reactive dyes namely, cold brand and high exhaustion brand reactive dye at...

one of the main issues of nanotechnology is producing materials with new properties. nanotechnology, as a powerful tool, has the ability to create evolution in the agricultural system and food–medicinal industries across the world. producing a high-performance material from reclaimed cellulose material will increase motivation to recycle these materials at all phases of paper production and rem...

100% grey cotton knitted fabric contains impurities and yellowness and needs to be prepared for processing to make it suitable for coloration and finishing. Therefore, conventionally 100% grey cotton knitted fabric undergoes a process of scouring and bleaching, which involves the use of large amounts of water and chemicals, in order to remove impurities and yellowness. Due to increased environm...

Bioactive gibberellins (GAs) comprise an important class of natural plant growth regulators and play essential roles in cotton fiber development. To date, the molecular base of GAs' functions in fiber development is largely unclear. To address this question, the endogenous bioactive GA levels in cotton developing fibers were elevated by specifically up-regulating GA 20-oxidase and suppressing G...

Macroand crystalline structure, as well as chemical composition of fibers related to various types and sorts of Israeli cottons, both white and naturally colored, were investigated. The differences in structural parameters and chemical compositions of the cotton fibers were evaluated. Samples of cotton of the “Pima”-type had long, thin and strong fibers with highly ordered supermolecular struct...
