Evaluation Study of Surface Characteristics for the Compact Yarns Manufactured on Different Compacting Systems.

Abstract

Surface attributes of a textile product i.e. yarn in this case, have crucial importance as they matter the most for an end product, especially in conjunction with the apparel textiles. To quote an example when a customer goes to a boutique to buy an outfit, what does he look for? Importantly the Appearance and the Feel of the fabric. These surface attributes are harnessed in the apparels from the fabrics used. Study of surface properties of a fabric starts from its basic component i.e. yarn.
