GREETINGS —< to all those
ladies who would like to know
something about textile finishes.
Quite often the finishing'pro
cesses to which a woven fabric
has been subjected have more
bearing on the durability of the
cloth than the type of weave or
the construction and twist of
the yarn. A piece of fabric as is
appears on the counter ready for
sale, is indeed, a far cry from
the uneven soiled fabric which
emerges from the weaving loom.
In all textile mills the finishing
processes are a very large and
important part of fabric manu
facture.
Most finishing operations fall
into three distinct groups: those
produced mechanically in the
cloth itself, such as pre-shrink
ing; those which follow the
chemical change
as mercerization
cotton yarn; and
posit substances
of the fibers or
water-proofing.
When taken from the loom,
■most fabrics are inspected for
flaws, graded as firsts or sec
onds, and in the case of expen
sive" woollens the flaws are care
fully mended by hand. Wools are
then subjected to a fulling or
shrinking operation, done by
friction anq pounding, followed
by forcing the fabric through
weighted lids, and finally through
a hydraulic squeeze Yoll, This
process cap shrink a woollen
loom down to fifty-six inches. To
remove leaves, burrs and other
I vegetable mater which are aj-
; ways present in raw wool, the
J fabric is given a dliute sulphuric
: acid bath then baked in an en-
? closed oven. By this’ operation
S the vegetable matter is turned
' into carbon which in this form
< can be pounded like
the fabric.

able luster. Then they may be
given a sizing or filling process,
which is the simple action of
starching the material. A slight
rub between the fingers fill de
termine how much filling has
been added to cotton fabrics.
Calendering is the technical term
given to ironing cotton which
produces either a dull or lustered
finish. Other finishing operations
on cottons which drastically
change their appearance may
range from napping for flannel
ette to perfnanent glazing for
chintz draperies.
Cottons should also be
shrunk, which means that
are guaranteed not to
more than two percent,
which cannot sharply affect the
size of any garment. For assur
ance of durability always look
for a pre-shrunk label.
Pure silk, although given the
usual straightening, ironing or
pressing operations, needs very
little finishing to enhance its
own elegant appearance. Some
silks are, however, subjected to
aweighting process with metallic
salts, to give the fabric better
draping qualities.
Rayons and nylons, as well as
most other man-made fibers may
be turned out in many forms.
They range from spun staple
which closely resembles wool in
appearance to the gossamer
threads which are knitted into
hosiery or woven into sheers.
The may be given a chemical
treatment which makes them
rustle like pure silk, or they may
be softened and napped for suit
ings. They also take readily to
the water-marking of moires, and
can even be combined with nat
ural fibers to form blended or
combination fabrics.
Some of the newer finishes
which deposit substances on the'
fabric include crease-resistance,
wate-repellency, and water-proof
ing. Crease-resistance is gained
by the use of snthetic resin or
other chemicals which cause
wrinkles to fall out when a fab
ric is hung up. The effectiveness
of this process, however, depends
largely upon the reliability of
the manufacturer.
There are many types of water-
repellent and water-proof pro
cesses, the most effective of
which should provide resistance
to the passage of water and air,
yet allow for ventilation. Most
patented processes do not attain
all three of these qualities. More
over, some will not withstand
washing or dry-cleaning, but
must be re-processed after each
cleaning. A label, however, can
usually be found on such a gar
ment giving the cleaning instruc
tions.
Among the finishing processes
which are still in their infancy
and experimental stages are air-
conditioning, which lowers the
humidity of the body, and telo-
zorbant finishes which give
greater absorbancy to fabrics.
These, no doubt, will someday
become as common and as useful
as pre-shrinking of cottons and
woollens,
