Report Of The Chief Of The Bureau Of Agricultural And Industrial Chemistry Agricultural Research Administration 1946

Excerpt from Report of the Chief of the Bureau of Agricultural and Industrial Chemistry, Agricultural Research Administration, 1946 Among the various treatments examined, those that deposit mineral pigments on the fiber, such as lead chromate and iron tannate, have appeared to be the most effective in resisting the destructive action of sunlight and other weathering factors on cotton cellulose. Since the color imparted to fabrics by application of mineral pigments tends to limit their range of usefulness, attention has also been given to the possibility of utilizing, for protection against sunlight, other materials that do not noticeably color the treated fabric. For example, a form of urea-formaldehyde resin that is light in color has been observed to retard the degradation of cotton exposed to carbon-arc radiations, and cloth treated with this compound is being tested for resistance to deterioration by sunlight.

Excerpt from Report of the Chief of the Bureau of Agricultural and Industrial Chemistry, Agricultural Research Administration, 1949 Research has begun under 12 new Research and Marketing Act projects since preparation of the last report. Results obtained thus far under 5 of these new projects are discussed in the present report, together with those obtained under 14 of the 35 other Research and Marketing Act projects started previously.
