Evaluation of sizing parameters on cotton using the modified sizing agent

For producing a woven fabric, sizing is one of the important steps to increase the efficiency of weaving productions. Various sizing agents such as starch, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), wax, emulsifier, and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) are frequently used in the textile industry. The aim of this study i...
