Formation of Technological Properties of the Cotton Fiber in the Process of Its Development

The data given in the article showed that the growth of the fiber strength and the decrease of the metric number in the studied forms of cotton went in strict accordance with the biosynthetic processes of accumulation of fatty substances. The varieties and forms of cotton were clearly visible, the biological feature of the mature fiber had a low strength index where there was a significant (5-12 %) amount of fatty substances. The level of cellulose in these samples was reduced by 10-12 %.
