Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Long continuous filaments of acetate or rayon will produce fabrics which may have smooth or crepe-effect surfaces. Either filament can be adapted for other effects by cutting it into short uniform lengths from 1/2 to 9 inches. These lengths are spun into yarns... According to the amount of twist inserted in the spinning process, this spun yarn can be made stronger, less lustrous, and adaptable to napping and other finishes, thus producing fabrics that resemble wool, linen, or cotton. Such short-staple stock can also be combined with any of the natural fibers... 4, record 1, English, - spun%20rayon

[...] L'ouverture de l'usine [de Drummondville], en 1927, marquait la réalisation du rêve de deux chimistes suisses, Camille et Henri Dreyfus, qui l'ont construite pour fabriquer une nouvelle « soie artificielle » remarquable, le fil de filament d'acétate de cellulose, produit à partir d'un mélange de cellulose et d'anhydride acétique. Ce fil peut être tissé pour former des tissus 100 pour cent acétate utilisés principalement pour des doublures de vêtements ou être mélangé à d'autres fibres synthétiques ou naturelles servant à fabriquer des vêtements, des tissus d'ameublement et des rideaux. [Ces] fils peuvent aussi être transformés en tricots pour une vaste gamme de vêtements, notamment de la lingerie et des vêtements de nuit. 1, record 2, French, - fil%20de%20filaments%20d%27ac%C3%A9tate
