Abstract

Wool fibres are keratin fibres composed of residual α-amminoacids that take an active part in finishing processes. Textile finishing processes cause various changes in wool, exhibited as new end-use properties of the fabric treated. Finishing of wool woven fabrics is done in chemical media where careless work can result in fibre damages, including structural and physico-chemical property changes. Methods of determining wool fibre damage in woven fabric after finishing are employed. The methods applied are α-amminoacid analysis, alkali solubility, infrared spectroscopy, strength and elongation measurements.
