“…The bristles contained from 4% to 28.5 /o resin. When these fibers were allowed to stand in water for 3 [ 14] used the log of the swelling ratio plotted against log of the resin content as a test for crossbonding. This is based on the Flory-Rehner theoretical equation for equilibrium swelling of a crosslinked polymer [4] .…”

“…The mechanisms of moisture sorption, especially in hydrophilic fiber materials, are further complicated by a continuous change of the structure of the fibers owing to swelling (Preston and Nimkar, 1949). High internal temperature change caused by heat of sorption with large amounts of moisture also introduces more difficulties to the kinetics of the moisture sorption (Urquhart and Williams, 1924).…”

“…The water penetrates inside the fiber by breaking down the secondary interactions between cellulose macromolecules and is absorbed into the fiber by hydrogen bonds, which causes swelling of the fibers (Preston et al 1949;Lewin et al 1983;Peter et al 1989). By swelling, fiber becomes soft and flexible (Mantanis et al 1994).…”

A procedure for splitting of a lyocell fiber into a multitude of finer fibrils was developed. Crockmeter, usually used for rub-fastness of colored textiles, was modified and used for obtaining required shear force on swollen lyocell fiber. The shear force applied on fibers, and the concentration of NaOH, which affects swelling degree of fiber, were shown to be the leading parameters determining split number of lyocell fiber. While number of shear cycles was found to be of minor relevance for fiber splitting, the applied pressure directly influences the number of splitted fibrils. For example, at a pressure of 34.8 kPa, the average split number of lyocell fiber in 2.5 M NaOH solution was observed as 15, whereas it was observed as 30 for 47 kPa and 41 for 59.3 kPa. Splitting was not observed above 5 M of NaOH solution. Analyses of fiber splitting permit new aspects to study inner structure of lyocell.
