  • Printing of Pigments and Special Effects
    TECHNICAL BULLETIN 6399 Weston Parkway, Cary, North Carolina, 27513 • Telephone (919) 678-2220 ISP 1017 PRINTING OF PIGMENTS AND SPECIAL EFFECTS This report is sponsored by the Importer Support Program and written to address the technical needs of product sourcers. Copyright 2007, Cotton Incorporated INTRODUCTION Of the print systems used on cotton in the textile industry, pigment printing accounts for as much as seventy percent of the total1. This system requires no pre or post treatment other than drying the fabric. The color gamut is wide, and the sharpness of prints is excellent. Pigments do not react with the cotton fiber and must be adhered to the fabric with a film forming binder, which may detract from the hand of the fabric. However, advances in binder systems have made positive contributions to print performance. Special effects are used in addition to or in combination with pigments to impart a unique look to fabrics. Some of the special effects examined in this bulletin include resist, discharge, and burnout techniques. Alternative pigment types such as thermotropic, phototropic, puff, and plastisol technologies will also be described. PIGMENT PRINTING A textile pigment print system includes the following parameters: • Pigment: A pigment colorant is a colored organic substance that is not readily soluble in most common solvents and imparts coloration to textile substrates only when incorporated with an adequate binder system. • Binder: A pigment binder is the latex polymer resin that forms a three-dimensional film on the surface of the fiber. This film contains the dispersion of textile pigment and will act to adhere the pigment to the surface of the substrate.

Volume 1 Abstract Producing and collecting for Empire: African textiles in the V&A 1850-2000 The aim of this project is to examine the African textiles in the Victoria and Albert Museum and how they reflect the historical and cultural relationship between Britain and Africa. As recently as 2009 the V&A’s collecting policy stated ‘Objects are collected from all major artistic traditions … The Museum does not collect historic material from Oceania and Africa south of the Sahara’ (V&A 2012 Appendix 1). Despite this a significant number of Sub-Saharan African textiles have come into the V&A during the museum’s history. The V&A also has a large number of textiles from North Africa, both aspects of the collection are examined.

  • New Orleans Nostalgia "Civil Suits: a Sucker Born Every Minute" Copyright 2006
    NEW O RLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Civil Suits: A Sucker Born Every Minute “There’s a sucker born every minute.” This quote is attributed to P. T. Barnum but was actually made by David Hannum. He and four other investors had purchased a giant fossil man from George Hull, who had engaged in a $30,000 hoax after having had this figure carved from gypsum and buried on a cousin’s property near Cardiff, New York, in 1869. The Cardiff Giant was so popular that Barnum offered $50,000 but Hannum wouldn’t sell. So Barnum had his own fossil man carved by his own artists and called Hannum’s giant a fake. It was then that Hannum made the famous quote referring to Barnum’s giant (not realizing that his was also a fake). A civil suit brought out the truth in court and Hannum lost. Somehow the quote fitted Barnum and stuck. The quote is also apt for the summer season as seersucker suits are seen all around the Crescent City. They are the very essence of civility and gentility. Brooks Brothers (founded 1818) claims that they first introduced this fabric of puckered cotton in America in 1830 in the form of a frock coat. But the company that made the seersucker suit famous was founded in New Orleans in 1909. Joseph Haspel and his brothers created this ubiquitous raiment loved by southern gentlemen (and ladies alike) from an ideal fabric with a most interesting history. In fact, the words sugar and seersucker both come from the same root word.

  • Identifying Woven Textiles 1750-1950 Identification
    Identifying Woven Textiles 1750–1950 DATS in partnership with the V&A 1 Identifying Woven Textiles 1750–1950 This information pack has been produced to accompany two one-day workshops taught by Katy Wigley (Director, School of Textiles) and Mary Schoeser (Hon. V&A Senior Research Fellow), held at the V&A Clothworkers’ Centre on 19 April and 17 May 2018. The workshops are produced in collaboration between DATS and the V&A. The purpose of the workshops is to enable participants to improve the documentation and interpretation of collections and make them accessible to the widest audience. Participants will have the chance to study objects at first hand to help increase their confidence in identifying woven textile materials and techniques. This information pack is intended as a means of sharing the knowledge communicated in the workshops with colleagues and the wider public and is also intended as a stand-alone guide for basic weave identification.
