Investigation of Spinnability of Banana Fibers through Yarn Formation Along with Analysis of Yarn Properties
Journal Title: American journal of Engineering Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Banana is not only one of the important fruits in Bangladesh but also one of the anterior sources of the nutrition. But banana husbandry produces a huge amount of biomass which has been throwing to the environment and the above ground parts like pseudo stem is the major source of fiber. So the purpose of this research has been to investigate the prospect and spinnability of the banana fiber. For pursuing this thesis work “kobri” (AB genome) banana plant was used. In this study banana fiber was blend with cotton as the ratio of cotton: banana=50:50 and 30:70 and produce yarn by using ring and rotor spinning system and rotor spinning has been found comparatively more compatible than ring spinning system. But in case of both spinning system it has been found that thick places (+50%), thin Places (-50%), neps (+280%), U%, Cv% and hairiness of the yarn have been increased with the increasing of the portion of banana fiber and strength of the yarn has been increased with the increasing of banana part in the blend ratio. 100% banana fiber has been produced by using jute spinning system and the result found satisfactory especially the strength of the yarn but Cv% and hairiness was so high.
