Abstract
The present study entitled assessment of physical properties of
camel and goat hair was carried out during 2004-06 to assess the
physical properties of camel and goat hair, to compare the quality
parameter of camel, goat and blended yams and determine the effect
of acid and reactive dyeings on the colourfastness of camel yarn.
The camel hair was procured from National Research Centre on
Camels, Bikaner (Raj) and goat hair from Rajasthan Agricultural
University Bikaner (Raj). The fibre samples were assessed for
morphological, chemical and physical characteristics. The hair were
distinctively handspun into camel, goat and blended yams
(Camekgoat 50:50) and were assessed for yam count, yarn twist and
single yarn strength. But camel yarn was alone dyed in acid and
reactive dyes and assessed for colour fastness.
