Abstract
The results indicated that the increase of percentage of damage of tested cotton fabrics was accompanied by a drop in suggested degree of polymerization (DP). For finished fabrics, the maximum increase in percentage of damage was higher with bleached and printed fabrics than that of grey and scoured fabrics. It was found that the higher the percentage of damage, the lower the suggested (DP) value of tested cotton fabrics and vice-versa. Also it has been found that, microscopically the percentage of damage could be used in the degradation measurements instead of copper number, fluidity, and methylene-blue absorption test, both gave reults that are stronglly correlated to each other. The novel method is easy and saves much time and effort.
