| Abstract: | The influence of fibre and yarn parameters on lint shedding propensity has been studied. The lint shedding propensity is influenced by fibre length parameters and short fibre content. Amongst the yarn parameters, the yarn fineness, twist and hairiness influence lint shedding. The waxing of yarn does not reduce the lint shedding propensity despite reduction in yarn to- metal friction. Blending of polyester with cotton reduces the lint shedding of cotton yarns. The spinning system and yarn structure play a significant role in determining the lint shedding propensity of yarns. Compact yarns and rotor yarns show lower lint shedding propensity as compared to equivalent ring-spun yarns. |
