| Abstract | ||||
| Light microscope in conjunction with iodo-zinc chloride swelling agent were used to monitor several properties of cotton fibre before and after the latter were subjected to degradation treatments. Among properties measured were maturity, convolution frequency, percentage of damage and quality number of cotton fibers. Hence it was possible to asses that total effect nf mechanical and/or chemical treatments on the physical properties nf cotton fibres. The technique adapted fast and inexpensive. It enables studies to be made of the effects of pretreatments and finishing processes on damage and quality of cotton fabrics. | ||||
