Thu, 01 Dec 1983 00:00:00 GMT

Title: Performance of Rabbit Hair Blends with Cotton and Wool in Khadi System Authors: Arora, R K; Gupta, N P; Patni, P C; Singh, U S Abstract: The fibre and yarn characteristics of rabbit hair and its blends with cotton and wool have been investigated. The khadi system has been found quite useful for the processing of this fibre and its blends. Amber Charkha can be successfully utilized for spinning rabbit hair-cotton blends, whereas Ghantaria and Bhageshwari Charkhas can be utilized for spinning rabbit hair-wool blends using normal khadi preparatory machinery.

Title: Performance of Rabbit Hair-Wool Blend Shawls Authors: Singh, U S; Arora, R K; Patni, P C; Gupta, N P Abstract: The performance of shawls made out of all-wool and rabbit hair-wool blends has been compared. It is observed that the shawls made out of 25/75 rabbit hair-wool blend are superior to the all-wool shawl in respect of softness, feel, whiteness, fullness and warmth. The blended shawls have comparatively higher strength and undergo less abrasion loss. Page(s): 125-126

Title: Comparative Performance of Open-end Spun Yarn and Ring-spun Yarn In Single Jersey Weft-knitted Hosiery Fabric Authors: Mukherjee, S; Chindalia, S C; Dayal, B L; Goyal, A K Abstract: The feasibility of using rotor yarn in knitted hosiery fabric production has been investigated. It has been observed that rotor yarn spun fabric is much superior to ring yarn fabric from technological and customer points of view. Page(s): 121-124

Effect of Blend Composition and Fabric Sett on Some Characteristics of Polyester-Viscose Fabrics

Thu, 01 Dec 1983 00:00:00 GMT

Title: Effect of Blend Composition and Fabric Sett on Some Characteristics of Polyester-Viscose Fabrics Authors: Bhargava, G S; Yadav, R K Abstract: The effect of blend composition and fabric sett on breaking strength, breaking extension, fabric assistance, flexural rigidity and air permeability of polyester-viscose blend fabrics has been studied. It is observed that reduction in the polyester component in the blend results in a weaker, less extensible, and more flexible and permeable fabric with lower value of fabric assistance. Increase in fabric sett results in a strong, more extensible, less flexible and less permeable fabric with higher value of fabric assistance. Page(s): 115-120
