The following terms & definitions are used to describe and explain cotton fiber
maturity.
Circularity :
The degree of thickening which is calculated by the cross sectional area of the fiber
wall divided by the area of a circle of the same perimeter.
Theta :
Average circularity of the matured fibers also described as the degree of thickening.
Fineness (mtex) : Average fiber fineness (weight per unit length) in millitex. 1000
meters of fibers with a mass of 1 milligram equals 1 millitex.
IFC (%) :
Immature fiber content in percent. Percentage of fibers with less than 0.25 circularity.
The lower the IFC% the better the fiber is for dyeing.
Maturity Ratio :
Maturity Ratio is the ratio of fibers with a 0.5 (or more) circularity ratio devided by the
amount of fibers with a 0.25 (or less) circularity. The higher the maturity ratio, the
more mature the fibers are and the better the fibers are for dyeing.

TOPIC : SELECTION OF RAW COTTON WITH RESPECT TO COUNT AND PROCESSING
MACHINERY.

Pre-Ginning : Cotton Fibre quality depend on the following points to a large
extent.
1. Agriculture system
2. Location
3. Weather
4. Picking system & no of pick
5. Ginning preparation
Ginning system & type of ginning:
1. Basic working principle of saw & roller ginning
2. Merits & Demerits of roller ginning
3. Merits & Demerits of saw ginning

Relation between processing machine & trash in the cotton:
Normal range:
Count 20’s 30’s 40’s 60’s 80’s 100’s
Trash 5.0 4.0 3.5 3.0 2.5 2.0
For ring yarn processing:
 Selection of no of beating point
 Percentage of seat coat fragment in sliver & cotton
 Draft roller distance
 A/C plant performance
For OE yarn processing:
 Selection of no of beating point
 Trash & dust remaining in sliver
 Draft roller distance
 A/C plant performance

A.Classification of cotton base on 2.5% spun length value.
