Abstract

Excerpt from the report: This study of physical properties of mohair had five major objectives: (1) To compare the average fiber diameter of grease mohair with the average fiber diameter of the card sliver, top, and noil it produced. (2) To develop an equation for estimating the average fiber diameter of grease mohair from the average fiber diameter of the mohair top. (3) To determine the influence of season (spring or fall) of shearing and grade on the yield of clean mohair. (4) To study the relationship between grease mohair staple length and the fiber length of the top produced. (5) To determine the percentages of kemp and medullated fibers present in grease mohair, card sliver, top, and noil and the relationships between these percentages and season of shearing and grade.
