Patent Images
1. A lyocell fiber having a hemicellulose content of between about 13% and about 15%, and having a greater variability in cross sectional diameter and cross sectional configuration along the fiber length compared to variability in cross sectional diameter and cross sectional configuration along the fiber length of lyocell fibers produced by a continuously drawn process.
