Elemental composition, physical dimensions (length and apparent diameter), and crystallinity of different types of naturally colored cotton (NCCs) fibers from Peru were investigated using a CHNS organic elemental analyzer, optical microscopy and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). Spectroscopic studies involving Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were conducted; and the thermal stability of cotton samples were also investigated. Results from organic elemental analyzer and XPS showed that cotton samples contain mainly carbon, oxygen and hydrogen, but darker color samples also presented nitrogen. It was also found that the white cotton sample exhibited the longest fibers whereas the darker color samples showed the shortest values in length. Interestingly, the crystallinity seems also decrease with color intensity of NCCs. Finally, the thermal stability of white cotton fibers was similar to those obtained for the NCCs.
