Description

FIELD OF INVENTION

[0001] The present invention lies within the textile sector, particularly in processes of natural fiber treatment for different applications.PRIOR ART

[0002] At present, the leaves of the Aspargaceae family are considered to be a variety of fibrous plant materials with a high potential for exploitation in the textile industry. Usually, these vegetable materials have a high content of cellulose that may be used in the manufacture of base fabrics for clothing. However, its use as raw material in the production of base fabrics is limited due to its low fiber fineness and roughness, due to the presence of non-cellulosic components, which does not make it suitable for yarns that may be spun with traditional machinery for the production of base fabrics.

[0003] With the rise of the study of new applications involving natural coarse fibers, the most recent advances have focused on developing cottonization processes, which refer to the processing of coarse or hard fibers to make...
