FEASIBILITY STUDY OF JUTE-BASED BLENDED FABRIC (Pages : 12 - 16)

There are many natural fibre such as Jute, cotton, wool, silk, dhuncha, coconut bark, supari-bark etc. Among them cotton is mainly use for textile purpose. Jute is another fibre which produced in huge amount in Bangladesh and use to produce rope, sake etc. All the natural fibres are not suitable for blending with cotton. In that case, jute is the best natural fibre for blending with cotton. It is very cheap & available in the country. To determine the quality of fabric various properties of yarn are considered such as strength, count, count strength product (CSP), twist per inch (TPI), co-efficient of variance (CV) etc. The properties of 50:50; jute: cotton blended yarns are almost similar to the properties of 100% cotton where the price of cotton is almost 4.2 times of jute. So it is very much cost effective in case of raw materials. Jute can be used commercially in cotton processing system to produce blended yarn which will reduce the demand of cotton. This commercial use of doesn’t required hues change in production line. Blended fabric can to produce by adding only one or two machine before production line. Therefore new product can be produced from existing facility. Production of quality blended fabric will be increase by dissemination of evolved technology.Download
