4 Artificial Cotton
This is prepared from the barked trunks of pine trees by the reduction of thin shavings into wood-wool, which is washed, then acted upon by steam, and heated with caustic soda under pressure, being thus converted into cellulose. This paste-like substance is reheated and pressed through a form of sieve into threads. By treating with ammonia and sprinkling with water these threads are made flexible and as easy to work as cotton. The wood is not abundant, and the cost of production is very heavy, which tends to prevent this fibre becoming a commercial success. In 1933, a Japanese company claimed that they could produce this material so cheaply that it would compete successfully with cotton. -
5 Sweating
The removing of wool from the skins of slaughtered sheep. The fleeces are well steeped in water and afterwards hung in a chamber heated to a high temperature, with the result that the pores of the skin open and the wool drops off or admits of very easy removal. -
