Zusammenfassung:A severe problem with making cotton yarns with the rotor-spinning process is the accumulation of microdust particles. in the rotor. A microscopic method was developed for measuring particle size, enabling statistical treatment of the data. The technique involves taking a small sample of particles, dispersing them on a microscope slide, and measuring size with an ocular micrometer at a magnification of 1250X. It was possible to estimate size with 95% confidence to within less than 1 micron in about 1.25 h.
