Mixing Mixing could be thought of combining of fibres together in somewhat haphazard proportion whose physical properties are partially known so that, the resultant mixture has only generally known average physical properties which are not easily reproducible. Blending Blending is based on the measurement of important fibre properties i.e, length, strength, cleanliness, e.t.c. Quantitatively proportioning[…]
