The United Nations Statistical Commission, at its thirteenth' session from 20 April to 7 May 1965, discussed the enumeration of the total quantities produced of specific important commodities and the quantities of specific important materials used, and agreed that international recommendations should be established in this respect. The recommended " lists would include a description of the items as well as a standard unit of measurement. It would be advisable to prepare these recommendations through consultations in regional seminars or working groups. On these bases, the Commission adopted, inter alia, the following resolution: "The Statistical Commission Requests the Secretary-General: (1) To prepare, in consultation with the regional commissions, international recommendations for the establishment of a basic list of selected individual commodities for.which industrial production data should be compiled and of materials for which data on consumption should • be compiled; ..." (Resolution 6 (XIII)). • • 2. In 1962 the ECLA Statistical Division prepared a preliminary list of manufactured products, which was submitted for approval at the tenth session of the Commission at Mar del Plata. At the -end of 1963, a working group of experts' from seven countries of the region convened' under the auspices of the ECLA secretariat, reviewed the list and issued it in revised form as a draft standard list of.manufactured products®^ It comprises 2,800 industrial products with the relevant :group of economic activities and unit of measurement indicated for each onea The products considered to be the most important were grouped together in a minimum list. 3. Broadly speaking, the standard list of manufactured products is an attempt to make the industrial statistics of the Latin American countries more uniform and comparable in terms of physical output. -The list will be a valuable tool for industrial censuses and surveys and the preparation of 1/ Proyecto de Lista Uniforme de Productos Manufacturados (E/CN.12/648/Rev.l), 10 December 1963. /production indexes« ST/ECLA/Confr 2/+/L«. 5 Page 2 production indexesc It will also facilitate direct comparison between each country's production and foreign trade statistics in order to determine commodity balances, investigate possible bottlenecks and analyse the import substitution process* In more general terms, the aim is to obtain information from countries on domestic production of every item of some significance. While not enough for making an input-output matrix, this information will be useful for preparing national accounts based on the flow of goods and services, 4. The classification of products is regarded as an extension of the classification of economic activities. The Standard List is therefore an attempt to enumerate the principal commodities considered primary to each of the industries represented by the three-digit groups in the classification 2/ of all economic activities.—' It is recognized, however, that in some cases, the ISIC groups represent a number of industries that are not always inter-related, and could usefully be subdivided. This was attempted in the list mentioned in paragraph 2, and some countries drew up similar lists at the time of their manufacturing censuses, It is hoped that this experience will serve in the future as a basis for preparing a subdivision of the ISIC groups in accordance with the structure of the manufacturing sector in the La-tin American countries, 5* Pursuant to resolution 6 (XIII) of the Statistical Commission, the present document, which is based on the minimum list of manufactured products mentioned by paragraph 2 and represents the continuation of ECIA's work in this field, is hereby submitted for the consideration of the participants in the Latin American Seminar on Industrial Statistics, The products in question were compared with the results of the manufacturing surveys or censuses published by certain countries of the region,, and a preliminary draft list was circulated to the national statistical offices and international agencies concerned, Some of the comments and suggestions received have been included in this document. 2/ United Nations, International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities (ISIC)» Statistical Papers, Series M, Nos4, Rev.l. /6. In ST/EC IA/Conf24/L. 5 Page 3 6» In view of the need for. an internationally comparable standard list of manufactured products designed to meet the. requirements of economic development plans and industrialization in the Latin American countries, on the one hand, and the growing demand for comparable industrial production data for the purposes of integration, on the other, the present: minimum list of 543 manufactured products is submitted for the consideratio of the participants in the Seminar, as a first step towards.the preparation of a list of products and raw materials. 7. Although the list covers most of the- major manufactured products and could therefore serve as a basis for the compilation of uniform and comparable data at the regional level, it will naturally have to be adapted for use in specific countries, some of the items being eliminated and others added. These modifications are, in fact, one of the results it is hoped to achieve from the discussions at the Latin American Seminar on Industrial Statistics. 8. In view of the need to establish comparisons between production and foreign trade statistics, mainly in order to facilitate analysis of the import substitution process, the list has been related to the four-digit subgroups of the international trade classification.^ It should be borne in mind, though, that as the SITC subgroups may comprise more than one commodity, the correspondence between the two lists should be regarded as a frame of reference only. On the other, hand, the correspondence has the advantage of making it possible to. use,, the definitions of products contained in the Explanatory Notes to the Brussels Tariff ffcmenclature (BTN) through the SITC-BTN relationship, y United Nations, Standard International Trade Classification.

It is impossible, however, to draw a hard and fast line, and the best results in the art of paper-making are only possible when the manufacturer appreciates the fact that the skill of both is essential to progress and commercial success. In the present elementary text-book it is only proposed to give an outline of the various stages of manufacture and to indicate some of the improvements made during recent years.

  • Appendix 1 Sources
    APPENDIX 1 SOURCES UMIST: DEPARTMENT OF TEXTILES Most of the work described in this book comes from research in the Department of Textiles, UMIST, under the direction of Professor John Hearle. It started with the purchase of a scanning electron microscope with a grant from the Science Research Council in 1967, together with five-year funding for an experimental officer and a technician. Since 1972, the staff have been supported by general UMIST funds; a second grant from SERC enabled a replacement SEM to be bought in 1979; industrial sponsors, listed below, have contributed through membership of the Fibre Fracture Research Group; special research grants have been made by the Ministry of Defence (SCRDE, Colchester, and RAE, Farnborough) and jointly by the Wool Research Organization of New Zealand (WRONZ) and the Wool Foundation (IWS); and other research programmes and contract services have contributed indirectly to our knowledge. Pat Cross was the first SEM experimental officer and she was followed in 1969 by Brenda Lomas, who retired in 1990. Trevor Jones then took on responsibility for microscopy in the Department of Textiles in addition to photography. Over the years, many staff and students have contributed to the research. Their names are given below. Some have worked wholly on fibre fracture problems. Others have used fracture studies as an incidental element in their work.

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.

  • Natural Dyeing and UV Protection of Raw and Bleached/ Mercerised Cotton UV Zaščita Surovega in Beljenega/Merceriziranega Bombaža Barvanega Z Naravnimi Barvili
    126 Nina Čuk, Marija Gorjanc University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Natural Sciences and Engineering, Aškerčeva 12, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia Natural Dyeing and UV Protection of Raw and Bleached/ Mercerised Cotton UV zaščita surovega in beljenega/merceriziranega bombaža barvanega z naravnimi barvili Original Scienti! c Article/ Izvirni znanstveni članek Received/ Prispelo 03-2017 • Accepted/Sprejeto 05-2017 Abstract Dyeing with natural dyes extracted from curcuma, green tea, avocado seed, pomegranate peel and horse chestnut bark was studied to evaluate the dyeability and ultraviolet (UV) blocking properties of raw and bleached/mercerised cotton fabrics. 20 g/l of powdered plant material was extracted in distilled water and used as a dyeing bath. No mordants were used to obtain ecologically friendly fi nishing. The colour of sam- ples was measured on a refl ectance spectrophotometer, while UV-blocking properties were analysed with UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The results showed that dyeing increased UV protection factor (UPF) to all sam- ples, however much higher UPF values were measured for the dyed raw cotton samples. The highest UPF values were obtained on both cotton fabrics dyed with pomegranate peel and green tea extracts, giving them excellent protective properties (UPF 50+). The lowest UPF values were obtained by dyeing cotton with avocado seed extract and curcumin. Dyeing with selected dyes is not stable to washing, so the UV-block- ing properties worsen after repetitive washing. However, raw cotton samples retain their very good UV- blocking properties, while bleached/mercerised cotton fabrics do not provide even satisfactory UV-block- ing properties. No correlation between CIE L*a*b*, K/S and UPF values were found.

When a lustrous appearance is preferred for embroidery, the most popular thread types are: • Continuous filament trilobal polyester • Mercerised cotton When a matt appearance is preferred, an apparel thread can be used. • Polyester wrapped poly core • Cotton wrapped poly core If apparel sewing threads are used for embroidery these need to be carefully tested to avoid garment issues. These threads are developed for industrial sewing machines where speeds can exceed 4,000 rpm. The Bulletin Post quality and quantity of lubricant used in these sewing threads is different to that of embroidery threads and helps to minimise the friction and abrasiveness while the machine is running at these higher speeds. If apparel sewing threads were to be used for embroidery the lubricant can potentially migrate from the thread and stain the fabric. The lubricant used for embroidery threads is lower and more tightly controlled to allow high performance, outstanding quality, and to minimise the risk of stains. Trilobal polyester and rayon continuous filament embroidery threads are now in widespread use all around the world.
