Wool process

Raw materials used to make glass fibers include but are not limited to sand, limestone, soda ash, and cullet. These raw materials are melted in a furnace to obtain molten glass. The molten glass then can be made into glass fibers, mainly by three methods wool process, continuous filament process, and marble process. 

The wool process mainly is used to produce discontinued (short) glass fibers for thermal insulation and filtration apphcations. These fibers typically are used in the form of bafts, blankets or boards, and they often are called fiberglass or glass wool.

Exploration of the use of liposomes in wool processing stems from the similarity that exists between the bilayer structure of the cell membrane complex of wool and that of the liposomes. Merino wool contains about 1% by weight of lipids, these forming the hydrophobic barrier of the cell membrane complex. Cholesterol is one of the main lipid... 

Advantages claimed for this process [148] include improved whiteness, decrease in ash content, improved grease recovery and quality, optimisation of water consumption, efficient dirt removal from effluent and a reduction in treatment costs. An excellent review of wool scouring (and of wool processing generally) up to 1984 is available [146].

Is a compounded fulling and scouring agent for wool processing to provide excellent scouring, softness of fabric, and minimum redeposition. 

Amphoteric surfactants offer an excellent degree of lubrication, corrosion inhibitor, and wetting action and provide a protective colloid for silk and wool processing. The major uses of amphoterics are in the scouring and dyeing of protein fibres to prevent chafing, crack marks and crow s feet. Amphoterics are comparatively expensive and some of them are not heat stable and hence cannot be used at elevated temperature.

Proteases catalyze the hydrolysis of certain peptide bonds in protein molecules. These have been suggested for use in wool processing to improve scouring efficiency, improve handle properties, impart shrink resistance, and enable low temperature dye-ability. Proteases are also used for silk degumming processes.

There are many reports of environmental impacts arising from wool processing. One of the more significant is pesticide residues that are released into the wool processing wastewater during wool processing [49-51]. Wimbush reports that pentachlorophenol was found at a level as high as 100 ppm in consumer products on wool carpets, as shown in Table 7.22 [52]. 

Wool processing wastewaters contain high concentration of animal grease. 

Soluble sodium dichromate is used as a chelating agent in the presence of acid to yield an insoluble dyestuff. This is particularly used in wool processing.
