COLOR SPACE

Color space is a three-dimensional geometric space with axes appropriately defined so that symbols for all possible color perceptions of humans or other animals fit into it in an order corresponding to the psychological order. In this space each color perception is represented as a point. The symbolic representations of color perceptions in this space form the color solid.The earliest proposals
for color solids had simple geometrical forms: triangular double pyramid, sphere, cone, and so forth.There is, of course, no a prior reason why a systematic arrangement of color perceptions should fit into a simple geometrical solid.What controls the form of the solid is the definition of the axes of the space and their divisions.

TEXTILE PARKS IN INDIA

The Union Minister of Commerce, Industry and Textiles, Shri Anand Sharma launched 21 New Textile Parks approved under Scheme for Integrated Textile Parks (SITP) here today. These new parks take the total number to 61 parks as 40 Parks were sanctioned earlier. The Scheme for Integrated Textiles Parks (SITP) has been instrumental in development of wide range of models for green field clusters from a 1000 acre FDI driven integrated cluster, to a 100 acre powerloom cluster and a 20 acre handloom cluster. Under the scheme, 61 parks have been sanctioned – 40 projects were started in the 11th Five Year Plan and another 21 projects are to be implemented in the 12th  Five Year Plan. Out of the 40 parks sanctioned earlier, a total of 25 Parks are already operational. Most of the balance Parks are expected to be completed during this financial year. The estimated employment generation is over 10 lac persons with total estimated investment of Rs. 27, 562 crore.
Out of 21 new parks 6 are in Maharashtra, 4 in Rajasthan, 2 each in Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu and 1 each in Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, Tripura, Karnataka, Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir. In this year’s budget speech, the Finance Minister announced an additional amount of upto Rs. 10 crores per park for setting up apparel manufacturing units for the projects under the SITP. Necessary action is being taken for implementing the announcement. 

CREASE RECOVERY

Crease recovery is the property of material to resist wrinkling and to restore the initial state after the forces causing its bending is removed. Fabric crease resistance is expressed by the crease proof factor (Kc).

Crease proof factor (Kc) is characterised by the ratio of recovery angle µ of the specimen to the angle of its full bend equal to 1800.
Kc          =              (µ x 100)/180       =       µ/1.80%

The capacity of fabrics to restore the initial condition depends on the flexibility and elasticity of the materials; the capacity of resisting to bending depends on their stiffness.

According to their resistance to creasing, the fabrics are classified into three groups,
CREASE RECOVERY TESTER

·        With medium crease resistance,        Kc = 30-45%
·        With low crease resistance,               Kc = 46-55%

·        Non-creaseable fabrics,                     Kc = over 55%.

WORLD WOOL PRODUCTION

This Datas reproduced from the 1998/99 Statistical Handbook of New Zealand Wool Group, a division of the NZWB. The major trend is a reduction in Australian wool production in the 1990s due to poor prices, which in turn was initiated by a recession in Japan and other important wool consumers. Recovery has been hindered by acquisition of a considerable stockpile in Australia early in the decade. Economic disruption has also halved wool production in the Soviet Union (now CIS), but it is growing significantly in China. New Zealand production is fairly stable, in spite of modest prices and several droughts during the 1990s. The slow downward trend is, in part, a result of buoyant investment in dairying as a more profitable use of grassland.

There are several features of world wool production worthy of additional comment.Australian wool production is highly concentrated on the Merino breed and it therefore has a very dominant position in fine wools, accounting for about half of world supplies. Although approximately 75% of New Zealand production is categorised as crossbred type, i.e. about 140 000 clean tonnes, this represents just 30% of world supplies. The UK is a very substantial producer of coarse carpet wools and most of its 46000 tonne production competes directly with New Zealand offerings to the carpet industries in Europe and elsewhere. Halfbred wools comprise a quite high fraction (25%) of the total world wool production. This classification notably includes a large proportion of the predominant Corriedales and Merino cross wools sold out of Argentina and Uruguay. World wool production in total is, however, modest compared to the volumes of cotton and synthetic fibres. Wool available for manufacturing from all sources at the end of the twentieth century accounts probably for no more than 3% of total world fibre supply.
