Abstract

The aim of this work is to evaluate the spinning performance of most Egyptian cotton varieties, as well as to declare the manner of proper selection of cotton component in blending with new MISR polyester fibers. For the carded phase, cottons like G31, G70, and G75 were chosen and counts of Ne 20, 30 and Ne 40 are produced at blend levels 50c/50p, 33c/67p, 25c/75p. In addition, a study on blending of G70, G75 and G77 in a comped phase for spinning counts of Ne 40,50 and 60 at blend levels 67c/33p, 50c/50p and 33c/67p is also reported. The results declared that, there is a good scope for blending these cottons with polyester fiber. Also, it was found that the cotton fiber properties, method of preparation as carded or combed and yarn size do affect the quality of blended yarn at the blend level producer.
