Desized, scoured, and bleached sateen and printcloth were applied by pad, dry, and cure in laboratory and pilot-plant. Fabrics were treated with THP-amide. Tests were made of breaking strength, flame resistance, and durability to launder ing. Rot and weather resistance were made of both oxidized and unoxidized fabrics.
