A set of comparison tables of textile fibre properties, covering synthetic fibres (nylon, polyester, acrylics, polyvinyls, polyethylene, glass), protein fibres, rayons and natural fibres (cotton, wool, flax, silk, jute). The tables give tenacity, elongation, density, moisture regain, softening point, cross section, resistance to light, acids, alkalis and abrasion, dyeability, production figures and prices (April 1957 in the U.K.), and main producers. Numbered notes list trade names, producers and production figures for nylon 6, acrylic, polyethylene, polyvinyl and protein fibres.
