Physical Properties of Yarn from Paper Mulberry

This research were examined the spinning processes of paper mulberry yarn and also investigated the physical properties of paper mulberry yarn. The results show that a possibilities of spinning of paper mulberry fiber into yarn which is a longitudinal view similar to that of cotton. An average yarn count, tenacity and elongation are 1,022 tex, 66.39 cN/tex, and 17.80%, respectively. These results represent the beginning of the research to rescue traditional knowledge, combined with the possibility of the introduction of a new textile fiber on the market.
