Limited studies exist related to the short-staple spinning of flax ( Linum usitatissimum L.)
and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum and Gossypium barbadense) blends. The purpose of this
study was to determine if various surface chemical treatments, including water, salt
solution, and a suspension of polymer encapsulated silica nanoparticles applied via rotor
spraying techniques were either detrimental or beneficial to spinning. Results indicate that
neither yarn processing efficiency nor yarn quality appears to be significantly influenced by
any of the spray applications in the case of 100% cotton. However, in the case of the flax
blend yarns studied, processing efficiencies were impacted with fewer ends-down in the
case of the nanoparticle solution in conjunction with significant yarn quality improvements.
In addition, the application of a potassium malate salt solution also appears to significantly
impact the amount of foreign matter present in the sliver, possibly due to anti-static effects.
The beneficial effects produced are such that the application of chemical over-sprays
appears to be a viable option for textile mills wanting to spin flax more efficiently. Results
also indicate that chemical overspraying can be beneficial to yarn properties, but additional
research is needed for the optimization of this practice.
