Question 68 (Textile Engineering & Fibre Science)
A 60 GSM fabric developed recently contains 30% linen, 50% cotton and 20% polyester.
Regain values of these fibres in standard conditions are 12%, 7.5% and 0.4% respectively.
The percentage moisture regain of fabric in standard conditions will be
| (A) | 5.27 |
| (B) | 6.27 |
| (C) | 7.27 |
| (D) | 8.27 |
[Show Answer]
Option C is correct.
Percentage moisture regain of the fabric=30 x 12/100+50 x 7.5/100+20 x 0.4/100
Percentage moisture regain of the fabric=3.6+3.75+0.08
Percentage moisture regain of the fabric=7.43 (Ans)
