1 Introduction to Finishing -

cotton is one of the most important fibre, which is used in making all kinds of apparel and even industrial household textiles. So, it is an important fibre. Viscose is another fibre. What is the difference between these 2 fibres? So, one of them is called the manufactured fibre, which is called the viscose and the cotton is a natural fibre. And what is common in them? The common part is both are cellulosics.

in general wool is also naturally more flame-resistant, compared to cotton, it does not mean that it will not burn, it will burn but more resistant

Static charge development, do you think wool will have static development? Invariable no, but in very cold climates, cold conditions almost every fibre can develop static charge. Static charge is, when you rub something or you come in contact, then the charge get station on the surface.
