Abstract
Assessment of Bleached and Unbleached Jute Yarn with Various Dyes and Parameters
Highlights
IntroductionJute is composed of 65% cellulose and 35% natural waxes, oils and cements (lignin)
Bleached jute yarns absorbed water within 5sec, but unbleached jute yarn did not absorbed due to natural impurities such as oil, wax, fats, grease etc present in the jute yarn
As combined scouring and bleaching was done in this study so oil, wax, fats, grease and natural gray colors were removed from bleached jute yarn
