Study of Spinning Technique Development for Mass Production of Hansan-mosi

Traditional Korean ramie fabric is called Hansan-mosi. In Korea, many people have known Hansan-mosi. Hansan-mosi is produced by splitting, connecting, length-setting, skein-making, treating, winding and weaving from Taemosi. Recently, in spite of increased demand on the traditional fabrics by eco-friendly living pattern, Hansan-mosi is still very expensive and not widely popularized due to simple color and formation. Hansan-mosi has traditional handicraft shape and intangible cultural assets. In this study, ramie-spinning and carded wool-spining process, were used to develop technology that can produce Hansan ramie fabrics in large quantities. Alkali degumming was conduced for remove pectin quality ($19{\sim}30%$) of Taemosi that was obtained through decortication from trunk of ramie plant. Optimum condition was achieved at 5% concentration, 120 minutes, $95^{\circ}C$ temperature. Degummed ramie fiber was made to sliver, we producted 100% Hansan-mosi spinning yarn with low count yarn (10 lea) to high count yarn (80 lea).
