Cotton

Cotton consists of practically pure cellulose and may be chemically described as poly (1, 4-B-D- anhydroglucopyranose).
The helical reversal structure of natural cellulose shows the constantly recurring cellobiose unit, consisting of two glucose units each with six carbon atoms. The length of unit cell along the fibre axis is 10.4A calculated for the cellobiose unit. In natural cellulosic fibres there are 3000 - 5000 C6 or glucose units joined together. This corresponds to a molecular weight of the order of 300,000 -500,000.



Proteins
Nitrogenous compounds:
  •  Present in primary cell wall and lumen.
  •  Yellow colour of cotton is due to presence of proteins and some colouring matter.
Some amino acids: 

WARPING

OBJECTIVE

  • Forming a parallel sheet of yarn onto a warpers beam or section beam from single end packages.
  • Cones winding for warping is done at higher tension.
  • Static eliminator  device is used for yarn producing high static charge.
  • Direct warping is done mostly when sizing is required and large number of ends are required in weaver’s beam. 
  • Section warping usually done if sizing is not required.
Direct Warping 

  • Winding speed : Upto 1200 mpm
  • Beam Diameter : 800 to 1600 mm
  • Width of machine : 1400 to 2600 mm
