Man-Made Silks
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A short 1911 magazine article describing an artificial silk gauze or tulle made in a factory in northern France. It explains how a cellulose solution is moulded in an engraved metal cylinder, transferred to a belt or cloth, and set in a coagulating bath to form a hexagonal net. The author notes that the product is fragile and of limited use, so conventional spinning and weaving are not threatened. Two micrographs show the mesh and the thread junctions.
