... Instron testing will measure the breaking strength and elongation of single fibers ... we could determine single fiber strength ... it may be possible to determine breaking strength and elongation for individual fibers in a cotton bundle ... Based on a new model for estimating single fiber tensile properties from HVI bundle tensile data, the variance of breaking elongations was estimated for all fibers ... the estimated standard deviation of the single fiber elongation decreases, the strength of yarn increases, confirming a research hypothesis.
