Researchers exploring the use of alternative cotton fiber property measurements during spinning made a full complement of commercially available fiber property measurements on extra long staple (ELS) cottons, beginning with the ginned fibers and repeating the measurements at progressive stages in the processing leading up to yarn spinning. Researchers compared the behavior of the fiber measurements at different processing stages with the relative performance of these alternative sets of measurements in predicting the strength and unevenness of Ne 50 combed ring spun yarns, Ne 36 carded ring spun yarns, and Ne 36 rotor spun yarns. Results showed that comparisons must center on the raw, chute, and card measurements. Combing significantly altered the levels and distributions of enough key fiber properties to guarantee that postcombing measurements on ELS fibers are the best predictors of ring spun yarn quality. 9 refs.
