A Proposed Course in Textile Chemistry for Textile High Schools
Abstract
This course is planned to be presented in purely vocational schools of High School grade.Since the subject deals with considerable general chemistry, an abstract science, it may be considered beyond the scope of a vocational high school curriculum. However, in this course is included only such general chemistry as is necessary to familiarize the student with the nature and properties of the compounds, he is called upon to deal with in his work as a Textile Chemist. It is essential, that he become familiar with the rules of chemical nomenclature and the origin and properties of the various substances. A discussion of chemical properties is confined to the materials used in the Practice of chemical testing of textiles. A brief discussion of the different fibers used is also necessary as is included.
