The decrystallization of natural cotton with Ethylene Diamine Treatment is well known. This paper analyzes the variation of X‐ray orientation with stress on ethylene diamine‐treated cotton fibers. For cotton fibers in the natural state, the elongation varies uniformly with the applied stress. It has also been pointed out by earlier work that the X‐ray orientation does not vary uniformly with increase in applied stress. With ethylene diamine treatment on natural cottons, the above trends are reversed and this is reported in the present investigation. This paper also indicates a possible explanation to support the above observation.
