| Abstract [eng] |
The aim of this research is to analyse and compare mechanical indices – breaking force, tenacity, elongation at break, work of break, and toughness of dog’s hair and sheep’s wool fibre and to investigate the relationship between the geometrical and mechanical indices of these fibres. In textiles it is very important to choose the right component for the blend. Fibre length, diameter, linear density, tenacity, elongation at break and other strength properties are very important for these fibres parameters of yarn. It was estimated that sheep’s and dog’s fibres are visually very different and the diameter of these fibres varied in a big interval; however their length is more similar. Also it was established that geometrical indices of the fibres influence their mechanical indices of them i. e. fibres of minimal length have maximal values of these indices. |
