Characteristics of treated bamboo/cotton blend yarn produced from ring and rotor spinning techniques

Natural bamboo fibres are coarse and stiff, requiring chemical treatment to reduce their high chemical composition and enhance their textile application, where fine and soft fibres are greatly valued. Cotton fibres are widely used in textile manufacturing due to their comfort and durability. Howe...
