Abstract:
A study was performed on the jute-
cotton union fabric to show the effect of sizing on
the properties of union fabric. Here, the cotton
yarn was used in the warp direction and jute yarn
was used in the weft direction. The size material
was used only for warp yarn that is for cotton
yarn. From the experimental results, it was seen
that the strength of the sized union fabric was
better than the unsized union fabric although the
other properties were similar to each other.
Comparing the properties of union fabric with
100% cotton fabric, union fabric (jute-cotton)
may be the replacement of 100% same category of
cotton fabric.
