Especially, some studies made over the naturel fibre, inwhich the weight does not have a certain advantages, may provide an advantage incompetetion and will have a major role in improwing the wide variety of products. Because ofthat, new generation textile product can be possible.With this study; physical specifications (microscobic look, length, thickness, strength,elongation and density) and chemical specifications (asid, base, oxidate products and effectsof solvents of dry-cleaning to fibre) of wool angora, one of the most expensive raw-materialin textile industry, are analyzed and intended this study as a basis for later studies.Key Words: Wool Angora, Physical and Chemical Specifications, Animal Fibres, TextileRaw-Materials
