Sodium hydroxide and tensioning of the yarn is used to change the natural spiral structure of the cotton to a straighter, rounded fibre, which gives it a more lustrous look. This is sometimes enhanced by gassing, which burns away the short whiskers of cotton.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;!-- /wp:paragraph --&gt;</div>" href="https://weavingyarn.co.uk/glossary/mercerised/" data-gt-translate-attributes='[{"attribute":"data-cmtooltip", "format":"html"}]' tabindex='0' role='link'>Mercerised</a></p>
