| Abstract: | Oak tasar
fibres and viscose rayon fibres have been blended in different proportions
(65/35, 50/50 and 35/65) to produce a binary mixture of fibres for preparing 16
count yarns. Viscose and blended yarns have been tested for different
properties such as yarn strength, elongation, tenacity, count strength product,
unevenness and hairiness. It is observed that the yarn strength, elongation and tenacity values decrease with the increase
in tasar silk fibre component in blend. Count strength product values
are found to increase with the increase in viscose component in the blend and
similar trend is also noticed for lea strength values. Maximum unevenness
percentage is recorded in 65/35 tasar/viscose blended yarn followed by the
yarns of 50/50 and 35/65 tasar/viscose in comparison to pure viscose yarn
having minimum unevenness. Hairiness value and index increase with the increase
in tasar silk fibre proportion in the blend. |
