To develop new products, bamboo shijira fabric is compared with conventional cotton shijira fabric. Results
show that in shijira fabric : 1) Cotton has more resistance to breaking and more resistance to surface abrasion than
bamboo. 2) Compressibility ratio in cotton is higher than in bamboo. 3) Cotton is thicker than bamboo under lighter
load and both are similar under heavier load. 4) Warp water absorption speed in cotton is faster and higher than in
bamboo. 5) Drying property in cotton is higher than in bamboo. 6) Conventional cotton is superior to bamboo in
emphasizing crepe produced by the rib weave of shijira fabric.
