STUDY SOME OF MECHANICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF COTTON TOWELS WHEN CHANGING THE SHEARING PILE HIEGHT

Abstract

Cotton towels are widely used in daily human life. One of the important properties of the towel is softness and water absorption. This paper presents the results of a study conducted to determine the effect of shearing pile height on geometric structure and some mechanical properties of 100% cotton woven towel (velvet towel), such as flexural rigidity and water wicking capacity strength. This research is the scientific basis for selecting the suitable shearing technology parameter of towel for finishing technology and different used purposes.
