PURPOSE:To spin the titled raw cotton in excellent spinning process performance under the same temperature and humidity conditions as ordinary cotton fibers, by applying water to cotton fibers having sticking adhesive materials, allowing the cotton fibers to stand under conditions of high moisture content for a specific period and drying the cotton fibers for use. CONSTITUTION:Water is first applied to raw cotton having a sticking adhesive material by spraying, etc. to give >=10% moisture content. The resultant raw cotton is then covered with, e.g. a synthetic resin film, to allow the cotton to stand for >=3 days, normally 3-7 days while keeping the conditions of >=10% moisture content. The resultant cotton is finally dried and spun according to the conventional method. Preferably, the addition of a yeast or enzyme for promoting the hydrolysis of sugar to the water for applying to the above- mentioned raw cotton is more effective. |
