Book Description
Excerpt from Effects of Reclaimed Gin-Loss Cotton on Lint Quality and Spinning Performance Fiber arrays for reclaimed gin - loss cotton and for ginned lint showed that the overall length of gin-loss cotton was shorter than ginned lint from the same bale. E/ Array test results for this study were not consistent with this relationship, blended lots showed less short fiber than nonblended lots. Even though reclaimed fiber was blended into a bale continuously during gin ning, its small proportional share of the total mass would.make it particularty difficult to obtain representative fiber arrays. The significant difference in micronaire readings was probably due to inherent variability of cotton fibers. Since both lots had average fineness, the slight difference is probably not of practical importance. Nonblended and blended lots differed significantly in percent of waste removed by opening and picking, and carding processes. Blended lots averaged percent more total waste than nonblended lots (table This means that a blended 500-pound bale had pounds more waste than a nonblended.bale. However, according to the test results, an average of pounds of reclaimed fiber was added.per 500 pounds for blended lots. Thus, assuming that the pound increase in opener, picker, and card waste was due to blending. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
