Seller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a complete guide to the chemical substances and processes central to printing and dyeing. It delves into the history of calico printing, from its introduction to England 70 years prior to the author's writing, and discusses the evolution of aniline colors and their application to this art. It includes receipts for various dyes, details on mordants and thickeners, and a wealth of practical advice. The author maintains that the judicious use of theory can greatly improve outcomes and laments the contemporary tendency of printing and dyeing to rely upon empirical methods. Nevertheless, he emphasizes the importance of understanding the chemistry at play and provides a detailed list of substances employed, their properties, and how to derive the best results from them.
