| Abstract: | This paper examines the use of pressurized steam for wrapping and setting the yarn hairs concurrently via a new steam-jet
process during winding. Yarn torque can also be stabilized as an added advantage. The results obtained with two batches of
pure wool yarns suggest that there is potential to achieve yarn hairiness reduction of up to 60 % with minimum deterioration
in hairiness even after subsequent rewinding. |
