Many New Chemical
Products in Store for
Homes in Future
Furnishings Are Planned
To Increase Comforts
And Convenience

Window screens that will not rust
or corrode or need painting. Cur
tains that can be laundered with
out benefit of bothersome stretcher
frames. Upholstery fabrics that
combine the beauty of rich tapes
tries with the durability of canvas
or leather.
These are some of the products
of chemistry which are in store fos
homes of tomorrow
Today the textile chemist anc
manufacturer devote much of their
thought and energy to meeting the
tremendous demand for uniforms
parachutes, special protective cloth
ing and other military and indus
trial fabrics. But war stimulation
of the textile industry has resulted
, in the creation or speeding up Of
numerous inventions and develop
| ments which will be available after
the war
Many of the new things in house
furnishings have been carefully
planned and executed by chemists
and engineers. Nylon, rayon, glass
fibers, wool-like yarns-all will be
ready after the war to make homes
brighter, more comfortable and con-
venient
Before the war. nylon, for exam
pie. was seen mainly in stockings
and other sheer knitted articles
But the parachute program has ac-
qualnted weavers with it's excellent
looming properties; the resulting
increased capacity for goods is ex-
pected to reflect itself, after the war
in many new items.
Marqulsette or lace curtains OF
nylon not only launder easily but
retain their shape without being
pinned to stretcher frame.
Inherent crush resistance gives
nylon plush, velvet, frieze and othe,
pile fabrics an advantage over the
corresponding weaves made from
natural f1bers. The materials are
also durable and abrasion
and have much softer feel than
the natural pile fabrics, desirable
property in furniture covering.
Experimental nylon screens, fabri.
Gated before the war have stood ur
at the seashore and even in the
tropics. Pigments are added to the
molten material before it is spun
and drawn out into wires" making
the color permanent part of the
screen. Absence of rust or corro.
sion makes for less deposit of dirt
and no metallic stains, on the glass
and sills.
In the floor covering field, rayor
is being used more and more widely
Many postwar homes will be gracec
by the durable rugs made of thi.
yarn. The yarn has a permanent
crlmp or crinkle, yet the fiber i.
round in cross-section, instead O,
irregular like ordinary rayon. The
round flbers produce a rug that /.
much easier to clean than those o.
ordinary rayon. The wearing prop.
critics are equivalent to the bes
grades of wool.
While wartime shortages of man,
raw materials, machines and labo,
place some of these man-made FIBER
temporarily beyond the reach of tn,
civilian market, their existence a.
well as their successful passage
through the severe trial of wa
uses give us a glimpse of a peace
time home whose beauty, comfort
and utility will be greatly enhance,
by the contributions Of the chemist
