THE ROLES OF PHANAKORN NATIONAL MUSEUM ON DISSEMINATION OF ASEAN ARTS HISTORY KNOWLEDGE TO THE PUBLIC

Abstract

This research aims to 1) Develop the sugarcane fiber yarn for weaving with a native loom 2) Produce the handicraft sugarcane fiber woven and 3) Produce the household textile products from sugarcane fiber woven. The research found that cocoon fibers, sugarcane leaf fibers, and cotton fibers mixed up proportionally together to 6 experiments by percentage including set 1 (20: 60: 20), set 2 (20: 40: 40), set 3 (20: 20: 60), set 4 (40: 40: 20), set 5 (40: 20: 40) and set 6 (60: 20: 20). Then use the rim to turn it into a fluff before hitting thread found that all 6 sets of experiments give the sugarcane fiber yarn that can be woven with the native loom. The sugarcane fiber yarn has the following industrial standard results were maximum tear resistance 32.55 is the first piece (20: 60: 20). The pulling forces of yarn according to weft thread were 4.73 Newton and the speeds of the stretch were 27.03 mm is the second piece (20: 40: 40) and the maximum thickness of 1.533 mm is the third piece (20: 20: 60). The highest mean of a bend of the weft thread of 5.00 cm is the fifth piece (40: 20: 40) and the highest average percentage of moisture absorption of 7.19 is the sixth piece. When processing the sugarcane fiber woven as a lamp found that it fit together, usable, the amount of light from the lamp is good, and light distribution is invariable.
