This book was released on 2020-12-18 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION This chapter is concerned with the general introduction, importance of thermal comfort and need for research on it. The objectives of the study and organization of the thesis are discussed. Importance of Blending Natural fibres and their blends with classic fibres bear valuable properties and so at present there are various products made of these fibres. It is observed that in respect of properties like the absorption and discharge of moisture, non-irritating, antibacterial, and anti-allergic characteristics, protection against the sun‘s harmful ultra-violet rays and other valuable properties, blended yarns are better than classical yarns. Hence, they may be used for clothing, underwear, socks, and hygienic textile products as well as for composites. In the cotton spinning process, blending has the objective of producing yarn with acceptable quality and reasonable cost. A good quality blend requires the use of adequate machines, objective techniques to select bales and knowledge of its characteristics. Knowledge of the importance of blended products in the textile industry and the generally rising costs of production make the achievement of economic and good quality blends with different kinds of cotton more and more critical (Azzouz et al 2008).
