Figure 6

Effect of Swollenin on mercerized cotton fibres imaged by SEM. The surface of the control fibre (Left) appears roughened due to the mercerization treatment. The rough features on the surface of the mercerized cotton fibres appear to have been sloughed off by the action of Swollenin (Right). Images are of representative fibres for the indicated treatment, and are at 10000x magnification.
