Sodium has long been labeled the blood-pressure bogeyman. But are we giving salt a fair shake? A new study published in the American Journal of...
This is due to wool characteristics that also serve to make it the most unique, completely natural and multipurpose fiber available.1  Sheep wool has the capability to keep the body at at even temperature because it does not trap heat, it insulates instead. Felting is the nature of most animal fur that allows it to entangle and form mats of fabric. 2  The fibers (strands) can interlock with each other due to ridges on the individual fibers. 3  Sheep wool is highly regarded for its ability to felt and form fabrics that are near impossible to tear.
Longitudinal view of synthetic fibre and wool fibre. Woolâs unique cellular structure gives it a number of desirable properties. Most properties are typical of all wool, but there are some differences in wool from different sheep breeds.The differences affect the appearance and feel of the wool and what itâs used for.ool fibres have a unique surface structure of overlapping scales called cuticle cells. The cuticle cells anchor the fibre in the sheepâs skin. Woolâs surface is very different to typical synthetic fibres, which have a very smooth surface.
