High-performance wool blends
M.   M I A O, CSIRO Materials Science and Engineering,
Australia
Abstract: Wool is blended with other fibres to improve comfort, protection,
durability and easy-care characteristics, and to impart special functionality.
This chapter first reviews products made from wool blends, their beneficial
characteristics and applications. It then discusses the developments of wool
blend yarn structures and processing technology.
