Effect on Textile Behavior of Fleece Types and Dehairing Process on the Linear Density and Regularity of Yarn from Argentine Llama Fibre

Abstract

The textile industry usually ignores the existence of types of fleece in South American Camelids, however its biological base has been widely demonstrated [1]. On the other hand, it is suggested the utility of classifying the lots by types of fleeces, before dehairing, foreseeing a differential textile behavior of the fiber [2,3].
