An experimental evaluation of a theoretical derivation pertaining to fiber-to-fiber character is presented. A portion of the relationship is separated and is then defined as the coefficient of energy dissipation. This coefficient is then evaluated for a number of cotton varieties as well as for a number of synthetic staple fibrous materials. Comparisons are made between the samples tested. The polyester specimens evaluated by this technique have also been studied by others using a different approach to what appears to be a similar problem. Comparisons have been made.

Key Words: Cotton • card laps. Synthetic fibers • polyester • rayon. Load • oscillation • pendulum amplitudes • thickness. Shear equation • coefficient of energy dissipation • interfiber interaction. Hand • handle • scroop. Shear friction instrument.
