The Impact of Carding Micro-climate on Cotton Moisture Content and Fiber and Yarn Quality

The Impact of Carding Micro-climate on Cotton Moisture Content and Fiber and Yarn Quality- Technical paper presenting the results of research to determine whether an increase in the relative humidity and cooling of the air surrounding the card, minimises the loss in moisture content of cotton fiber through carding and reduces short fiber content in the slivers.
