An attempt to measure the frictional characteristics of staple cotton fiber webs is described. A modification of the sied friction test for plastics was used to measure the shear of a layered carded web of five cotton samples under normal load. Another experimental apparatus, a beard friction force tester, allowed for measurement of fiber-to-fiber and fiber-to-metal friction of treated and untreated webs. Some of the cotton fibers were treated with butoxyethyl stearate lubricant and sodium acetate antistatic agent. Independent tests were conducted at two laboratories. Both the beard friction and sled test detected the absence of lubricant, and indicated that natural fiber finish was superior to that of bleached and treated fiber. Additional work to evaluate the testing methods is needed. 15 refs.
