A review of the processing of wool and wool blends on the short staple (Cotton) system

Abstract

The past decade witnesses a growing interest in the processing of wool on the short staple ( cotton ) system and a great deal of research effort has been directed worldwide towards the solution of the various problems which present themselves when attempting to process wool in this manner. The intention of this publication is to provide a summary of published work on the processing of wool on the short start staple processing machinery which, it is hoped, will be useful for the textile industry and for research workers in the field.
