Advantages of wool fibre structure In addition to the particular tensile and other properties, the special features of structure of wool fibre are crimp, which leads to high bulk and softness, and scales, which lead to felting. Good recovery properties are also beneficial, and especially the regeneration of properties by washing. The structural elements ofContinue reading “What are Wool fiber structural advantages ?-Engineering of Mother Nature”

What is Wool fiber general model ?- The Engineering of Mother Nature
The general model of wool fibre structure is represented by figure 8 which shows the overall hierarchy of structural elements. Under the microscope, the wool fiber looks like a long cylinder with scales on it. The fiber is very curly and springy. The fibre is surrounded by cuticle cells which overlap in one direction. TheContinue reading “What is Wool fiber general model ?- The Engineering of Mother Nature”
Wool fiber – Mother Nature at its best
Wool and other hair fibers have the most complicated structures of all textile fibers. Wool is composed of a complex blend of proteins and other chemical substances. The thermal and mechanical responses of the fibers are determined by a variety of inter-atomic and inter-molecular bonds and a variety of structural forms. The wool fiber hasContinue reading “Wool fiber – Mother Nature at its best”
