Comparison of the Physical and Handle Properties of the Fabrics Produced from Wool and Mohair

ABSTRACT

In this study, the differences of the fabric properties produced from wool and mohair fibers were investigated. By using 100% wool yarns and 100% mohair yarns separately in warp direction and the same yarns in the weft direction with different sequences, six types of fabrics were produced. The handle properties of the fabrics were tested with SiroFAST. Thickness of the fabrics made of mohair fibers was higher than that of the wool fabrics and the fabric thickness increased as the mohair proportion in the composition of the fabrics increased. Due to the higher volume of mohair yarns, bending rigidity both in the warp and weft directions of the fabrics produced with 100% mohair fibers was higher than that of the fabrics produced with 100% wool fibers. Elongation values of the wool fabrics both in the weft and the warp directions were higher than those of the fabrics produced with mohair yarns. The highest shear rigidity was obtained with the 100% wool fabric. The results of relaxation shrinkage and hygral expansion showed that there was no consistent relationship found between the results of the fabrics with regard to the fiber type.

摘要

研究了羊毛和马海毛纤维织物性能的差异采用100%羊毛纱和100%马海毛纱分别在经纱方向和纬纱方向以不同的顺序生产6种织物用SiroFAST测试了织物的手感性能马海毛纤维织物的厚度高于羊毛织物，且随着马海毛在织物成分中所占比例的增加，织物厚度增加由于马海毛纱线的体积较大，100%马海毛纤维织物的经纬向弯曲刚度均高于100%羊毛织物羊毛织物在纬向和经向的伸长值均高于马海毛织物100%羊毛织物的剪切刚度最高松弛收缩和湿膨胀的结果表明，织物的松弛收缩和湿膨胀与纤维类型之间没有一致的关系.
