IDENTIFICATION OF FIBRES THROUGH BURNING TEST Cotton : • When ignited it burns with a Silk: • It is a protein fiber and usually burns readily, notIDENTIFICATION OF FIBRES THROUGH BURNING TEST Cotton When ignited it burns with a steady flame and smells like burning leaves. A list of Woodhead books on textile science and technology, most of which have been published in collaboration with The Textile Institute, can be found on pages Fibers that are used to produce cloth or woven fabrics are called textile fibers. Natural fibers are generally more fragile and less durable than synthetic 1.13 Classification of Textile Fibres: Fibres for textiles can be classified by many systems. In 1960, the Textile Fibre Products. Identification Act became Simple methods for identifying fibres are the burn test and microscopy identification (identify cotton, flax.
