QB4.1. What was the purpose of their thesis project?
Comment: To investigate whether sand paper grinding of paper yarn would add comfort to denim pattern weaves.
QB4.2. How did they assess the effect of the treatment?
Comment: By Kawabata Evaluation System assessment and SEM of the weaves, tensile testing of yarn and measurements of the weave thickness.
QB4.3. Were the Kawabata Evaluation System results conclusive?
Comment: Besides compressibility of the weaves no softening could be registered by KES.
