Crimp plays a very important part in wool fibre industry, so the to define, measure and analyse crimp, espesically the determination of wool fibre crimp from the load-extension curve over the crimping range, is very significant.
In this work, the empirical relation between load and extension of the crimp portion for domestic wool fibre have been determined, and also crimp modulus of domestic wool fibre, modulus of crimp elasticity, percent crimp, uncrimping force and uncrimping energy etc., is reported.
