Objective
Sets of reference materials (input fibres, slivers, yarns) were selected and several methods were applied for the characterisation of the material in the different processing stages.
Some technological properties of the reference materials (fibre strength, fineness etc) were determined by standard methods. The results confirmed some well-known practical know-how, and also revealed some unexpected effects.
New methods were studied for the determination of fineness distribution, fibre length and orientation of fibres in slivers. Some of these methods gave promising results.
A method was developed for the determination of the composition of flax/cotton and flax/viscose blends. The precision of the method was acceptable.
The fundamental properties were studied using chemical analysis methods and spectroscopy (UV-VIS, NIR, IR, fluorescence spectroscopy). These measurements clearly showed the importance of such techniques for qualification of flax.
Pilot scale spinning trials under fixed conditions were applied to eliminate the effect of spinning conditions. The divisibility was studied by simulation techniques.
Correlations between the data were studied and statistical techniques were applied for modelling.

Funding Scheme
Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
