Investigation of physical and-mechanical properties of hemp cottonin

In the article, the physical-mechanical properties of the hemp cottonin are studied, from which textile products are made in Ukraine. The index of the specific elongation of the hemp cottonin was determined, which negatively affects the shape stability of the final products. In order to reduce this value, a small amount of the hemp cottonin was steamed in certain regimes. After that, the elongation index decreased by half, this would improve the shape stability of textiles.
