Improvements in and connected with Antiseptic Fabrics.
I, CARL GEIRINGER, of 5, Kleine Sperlgasse, Vienna, Austria, Manufacturer,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention has for its object to impregnate fabrics with hygroscopic and
antiseptic substances in such a manner that the fabric will remain moist for
sometime and act antiseptically.
In the production of this fabric any kind of cotton or linen may be used which
is saturated by a mixture of a solution of an alkali salicylate with that of a
chloride and afterwards freed from the loosely adhering liquid.
The chlorides most suitable are the natrium and calcium chlorides and of
the salts of salicylic acid, natrium salts.
The mixture is produced from equal parts of salts of salicyclic acid used
3-10 per cent. solution and of the chlorides 5-20 per cent. solution. The fabric
to be impregnated is saturated in the said solution mixture, afterwards freed
from the loosely adhering liquid by being passed through a wringing machine
or if necessary dried in a hot air chamber until the same feels only moist and
not wet.
In this state of moisture the fabric is used and will retain its humidity owing
to having been impregnated by the aforesaid hygroscopic substances.
Dated this 12th day of December 1899.

Improvements in and connected with Antiseptic Fabrics.
I, CARL GEIRINGER, of 5, Kleine Sperlgasse, Vienna, Austria, Manufacturer,
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 has for its object to impregnate fabrics with hygroscopic and
antiseptic substances in such a manner that the fabric will remain moist for
sometime and act antiseptically.
In the production of this fabric any kind of cotton or linen may be used which
is saturated by a mixture of a solution of an alkali salicylate with that of a

The chlorides most suitable are the natrium and calcium chlorides and of the
salts of salicylic acid, natrium salts.

Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim. is:
1st. The method of producing moist antiseptic fabric consisting in saturating
cotton or linen fabric with a solution of salt of salicylic acid with that of a
chloride and afterwards freeing the fabric from the adhering solution by means
of a suitable wringing machine, all substantially as set forth.
2nd. As a new industrial article, antiseptic fabrics which remain moist pro-
duced substantially as specified in the preceding claim.
