Effect of Gamma Radiation on Greasy and Scoured Wool, Irradiated in Mini-Bale Form

Effect of Gamma Radiation on Greasy and Scoured Wool, Irradiated in Mini-Bale Form

The effect of gamma radiation dose on certain properties of wool treated in either greasy or scoured form in mini-bales was investigated. Specific properties studied include color (yellowness and brightness), solubility (alkali solubility and urea-bisulfite solubility), fiber diameter and tensile pr...
