Abstract

An emulsion making process has been developed for spinning hessian type jute yarn by eliminating mineral oil from the normal sequence of emulsion processing. A number of experiments were carried out with jute fibers and 242 and 280 tex yarn were spun on the hessian spinning frame. It was observed that the elimination of mineral oil in emulsion processing did not make the yarn quality worse.
