Objective Measure of Wool Fiber Characteristics - WYO-00569

 

Current methods used to evaluate physical characteristics of greasy wool, such as vegetable matter and ash content, are time consuming, expensive, and utilize chemicals that are potential hazards to health. This project will evaluate new kinds of equipment that could be used to measure and report physical properties of greasy wool and other animal fibers.
