Complete Specification Left, 23rd Sept., 1893-Accepted, 28th Oct., 1893
PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in the Manufacture of Textile Fabrics, also applicable
to Cord, Rope, and the like.
I, WILLIAM DARLOW of Durban House Plaistow London E. Timber Merchant
do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
:―
This invention relates to improvements in connection with the manufacture of
cloth of various descriptions, lace, rope, cord and the like, and consists in weaving
or intertwining threads of aluminium with the material used, or of employing this
metal alone for the purpose of making the cloth, rope, &c. Gold and silver thread
has been employed in the manufacture of fancy cloths, but only for the purpose of
ornament and not as a means for obtaining greater strength and durability.
My invention has for its object to provide a non-oxidisable metal which will also
be so inexpensive that it can be employed in quantities in cheap cloth, and which
can be washed without fear of injury. Cloth made wholly or partly of this material
will also be generally free from chemical action, as few substances affect it. A
beautiful lustre is also obtained, which renders cloth of this description very
ornamental, and the metal is equally applicable to the finest fabrics or the heaviest,
such as used in ropes, sails, mats, carpets, &c.
Threads can be drawn of any required degree of fineness so that it may be
employed in combination with silk, linen and the like.
Dated this 23rd day of December 1892.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in the Manufacture of Textile Fabrics, also applicable
to Cord, Rope, and the like.
I, WILLIAM DARLOW of Durban House Plaistow, London, E. Timber
Merchant, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the
same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the
following statement :-
This invention relates to improvements in connection with the manufacture of
cloth of various descriptions, lace, rope, and the like, and consists in weaving
or intertwining threads of aluminium or alloys of aluminium with the material used,
or of employing this metal alone for the purpose of making the cloth, rope, &c.
Gold and silver thread has been employed in the manufacture of fancy cloths, but only
for the purpose of ornament, and not as a means for obtaining greater strength and
durability.
My invention provides a practically non-oxidisable metal which will also be so
inexpensive that it can be employed in quantities in cheap cloth and which can be
washed without fear of injury. Cloth made wholly or partly of this material will
also be generally free from chemical action, as few substances affect it. A beautiful
lustre is also obtained which renders cloth of this description very ornamental and
the metal is equally applicable to the finest fabrics or the heaviest, such as used in
ropes, sails, mats, carpets, &c.
Threads can be drawn of any required degree of fineness, so that it may be
employed in combination with silk, linen, and the like.
The wire or thread thus employed in the manufacture of fabrics, may be drawn
...מ

page_text: in round, flat or other form, which can be conveniently woven with or without other
material.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
Improvements in the manufacture of textile fabrics, lace, cord, and the like,
consisting in weaving or intertwining threads of aluminium either by itself or along
with the material usually employed for such purposes, substantially as described,
and for the purposes specified.
