Two pages from the September 1916 issue of Posselt's Textile Journal, continuing a series on fabric analysis. They give chemical and mechanical procedures for finding the fibre content of silk-wool, wool-silk-cotton and cotton-linen fabrics, including acid, alkali and dye tests, the ink test and a worked weighing example. Shorter items cover raw silk defects (split ends, bouchons, vrilles, duvets), preparing cloth for wear testing, and silk imports at New York.
