Abstract
Yarn engineering plays an important role in producing fabric for particular use. It is a common practice that yarn properties are predicted from constituent fibre properties. Cotton properties being highly variable in nature attracted various scientists from all over the world to derive prediction equations. More than 200 articles have been published in this area. Most of these predictions are based on single cotton, whereas in practice, more than one cotton is mixed together to optimise cost and quality. This study reports the accuracy of using weighted average method to determine the properties of blended cottons. Also, a set of prediction equations, derived for single cotton, tried to predict the properties of blended cotton yarns. To increase the accuracy of predictions, a new set of equations have been derived for binary cotton-blended yarns.
