- Summary:
- This report deals principally with the strength and deformation of the fabric itself, both undoped and doped. In the course of the investigations, it appeared that the doping of the fabric with "Cellon" exerciss a predominant inluence on the results, according to the nature and number of the coats. It was decided, therefore, to conduct the experiments in such a way that the properties of the fabric when subjected to stresses would be brought out to the best advantage. At the same time, it was endeavored to adapt the degree of doping to actual conditions and to obtain greater uniformity of elongation along warp and filling.
- Two coast of cellon are applied for all comparative tests. Parallel individual tests were also conducted with the undoped fabric, as likewise with fabric doped three and four times and then painted.
