Abstract
Print cloth fabrics (80 × 80) were produced from yarns spun from cotton contain ing different percentages of short fiber. In the case of all fabric properties measured, with the exception of crease angle, increasing short fiber content resulted in significant changes adverse to quality, i.e., in decreased strength, elongation, flex abrasion, and tearing strength. Subjective properties such as appearance and hand were also de graded as the short fiber content increased. The above conclusions appiy equally to fabrics in the grey, bleached, mercerized and dyed, and resin-treated states. No con clusions could be drawn as to the effect of short fibers on weaving performance, because of the limited quantity of experimental material available.
