Abstract:
Generally yarn properties can be altered
through blending of fibers and required properties can
be achieved by using specific blending ratios. Polyester
and flax blended yarn is very important in regard to
both spinning performance and product quality. In this
study polyester fiber was taken as a blending component
with flax fiber. Flax and polyester have been a new
blend now-a-days and depicts excellent properties than
their individual yarn properties. Different proportion of
flax and polyester has been tested by maintaining
international standards to observe their yarn properties
and it is found that polyester was perfectly compatible
with low proportion of flax fiber. Their blends with
specific ratios exhibit excellent properties which hence
ultimately contribute to the fabric properties.
