Micro-organisms living in water attack cellulose, which is the reason why unprotected cotton [fishing] nets rot. [The] Arigal proofing process is not based on chemical treatment, but on deposition of a synthetic resin in the fibre. The process consists of impregnation with an aqueous solution and fixation, without intermediate drying.
