PREFACE

IN the average course of chemistry as taught in our tech nical sch ools there is little or no attempt made to bring h the student in close touch wit manufacturing conditions . h ff is x ffi n T is state of a airs e ceedingly di cult to u derstand, when we consider the large amount of time devoted to prac i tical work in some of our engineer ng courses . Th e factory is surely no less fertile a depar tment of this

industrial era than the railroad or the foundry . For in the manufacturing plant there is more need of techno-practical (if such a term may be used) trained men than in any other

branch of industry . Unquestionably it is necessary to have

z a and organi ation for the m nipulation of power, machinery,

so as labor, to obtain the maximum of production with the

But minimum of expenditure or depreciation of plant . in

s th e addition , it is highly es ential that we understand chemi se cal principles upon which these industries are ba d . T h e is object of this book, therefore, to acquaint the

s student of chemistry with a few commercial proces es, by introducing practical methods of handling materials on a large scale ; the care and use of machinery ; the cost of raw material ; transportation ; wage system ; the handling of men

and shop discipline . The subjce t -matter of this book presupposes a certain knowledge of chemistry ; and purposely leaves many of the ut minor details to be worked o by the student . Great lee way is also given to the instructor in order that he may e xe r

i A h s . cise own originality few suggestions, however , may

not to be out of place, and may serve as a guide those engaged

in this important branch of teaching. The first chapter has been introduced in order to insure that the student understands the use and value of the various

for methods employed taking the density of liquids, and the

tests given should be conducted by each individual . a The work in the second chapter, de ling with inorganic preparations is best conducted on the foremansh ip system which is carried out at Pratt Institute as follows : One man is assigned as foreman of the chemical works and has as h is i T h assistants three or more of h s classmates . e work which he is given may be the manufacture of bar ium chlorid for

He example . first has his men make an analysis of witherite to determine the percentage content of barium and also test

‘ f In the strength o the hydrochloric acid . orde r that the work may be more commercial he is told to estimate the

of . cost producing lbs , it being understood that all weighings are made in grams . The necessary quantity of

is h mineral then weig ed , crushed and treated with the diluted acid in the kettle as described under that prep aration . During such a preparation as th e one cited it will be u necessary to remove impurities, this being reg lated by analytical tests .

Chapter three is devoted to the of textile fibers . Here it will be advantageous to have all tests mounted with an names of color, method employed , and y other data written under each skein . In the fourth chapter the preparations given have bee n se lected with the view of manufacturing commercial products rather than following the usual custom of making su s an to i H e organic b t ces llustrate typical organic groups. er PREF ACE ix

it has been found advisable to have the student save a

- of h h e 4 dram sample each compound , w ich seals and

I th e th e l - on . n s mounts cardboard ca e of coa tar colors,

- the student should make tests with the same , mounting

th . e skeins and color on the same card In order, also, to illustrate the use of his colors in the manufacture of lakes h e

on should prepare dry and pulp colors , mounting them card h - board toget er with rub outs in glue and Japan . h h In the c apters devoted to soap, paint , leat er and paper the work outlined comes again under the h ead of foremanship method and should be conducted along the same line as

re S on for inor ganic chemicals . The foreman should be held p sible for the quality as well as quantity of the output from h is plant ; he should see that a"machinery is left in perfect

condition , and that his factory is clean . The advantages gained by this foremanship system are

e - s lf evident , giving the student more confidence in his own

ability than by any other possible means . As we are only beginning to se e the first faint light of dawn

- of l in this all important branch education , the author wi l

e of be gratified , inde d , if this book proves to be any service to those who are attempting to solve the great prob u l E all lem of Ind stria ducation , and espe ci y the teaching of

Industrial Chemistry . s h i In conclu ion , the author desires to express s appre c ia tion of the kindness and courtesy shown to h im by his man y friends for the many valuable suggestions which have so h im been helpful to in the preparation of this volume .

or hydrochloric acid , and most of them are soluble in water .

In the process of dyeing these compounds decompose , setting

constitu free the acid , while the base combines with the acid

th e ent of the animal fiber, or with acid mordant in the case of vegetable fiber , thus producing the color on the fabric .

a ma e take up the natural mord nt colors, which y be us d for

wool . One of the oldest and most important dyes for wool is o ‘ logw od or campeachy wood , which is the wood of a larch a W M and tree growing abund ntly in the est Indies, exico ,

parts of Central America . It is imported in logs weighing

00 . oo s about 4 lbs The fresh w d is colorles , or nearly so ,

se and contains a glucoside , compo d of hematoxylin and

sugar . It is cut into chips or rasped . These chips are then digested with hot water when the solution on evaporation

gives the logwood extract of the market . Formerly for wool dyeing the chips were allowed to oxi

h is d in th e dize before extraction , but now t is accomplishe o as hi s lution and the product is known hematein , w ch o th r as c mes on e ma ke t e ither paste or powder . 28 LABORA TORY GUIDE OF INDUSTRIAL CHEMISTRY

Logwood is a mordant color, by which we mean that the color is only produced by bringing it in contact with some l meta . In this way a combination takes place with the formation of an insoluble lake . . 1 l 5 . In the first bath we wil boil two skeins of wool with 1 0 per cent logwood extract (on the weight of the fiber) for one half hour . The slight brownish color produced on the wool is of no al as v ue it is not fast to washing, and consequently would h as fi be removed . It , however, enough af nity for the color ing principle of logwood to absorb sufficient of it to produce a good color when afterwards mordanted .

2 h as 5 . To Show that the logwood been absorbed by the wool we will boil one of these skeins in a solution of 5 per cent of ferrous sulfate and 1 per cent of copper sulfate as i for half an hour . In this c e copper hemat te and ferrous

x hematite are formed , the latter being probably o idized to ferric hematite by the air . This experiment simply shows the power of wool to absorb c m colors, but does not represent the actual pro ess e ploy ed in dyeing .

wo is To dye wool with log od or other mordant color, it first mordanted and after wards introduced into the dye ll bath . To mordant wool with meta ic mordants it is boiled m d with solution of alum , or potassiu dichromate with a e dition of acids, whos function will be discusse d later . m The wool acts chemically upon the salts, deco posing an d x i s them , fi ing the alum num or chromium o that it can

n not be washed out , bei g in such a form that it combines readily with the logwood and similar colors to form the de sired lakes .

5 3 . To demonstrate the process of mordanting we will boil three 5 -gram skeins of wool for half an hour in a solution

directly with the logwood without oxidation . Cream of and ff tartar, tartaric , lactic acid have the same e ect as oxalic

acid . Besides influencing the composition of the body absorbed

ll for by the wool, assistants are used with meta ic mordants the following purposes : T ( 1 ) o prevent superficial and uneven mordanting. For o example , wo l decomposes alum so rapidly that in mor

danting in large quantities, where portions of the material are more exposed for a time to the action of the mordanting h liquid than ot er portions, some parts of the wool will take up the aluminium more rapidly than others and stripes or h F spots will appear w en dyeing . urther the mordant is be to liable to superficially attached the wool , and the color ff lake subsequently formed will rub o . The addition of

of bitarfrate th e sulfuric acid , oxalic acid , potassium to mordant bath prevents the alum from decomposing so rapidly

and aids to produce even the fast colors .

2 T o e Sul ( ) caus more of a mordant to be taken up . furic acid added to potassium dichromate by liberating

th e to h chromic acid , causes wool combine wit a larger h portion of t e mordant . Wool takes up chromic acid from potassium dichromate to a certain extent

process known as the single bath method , in which the dye

and mordant are applied in the same bath . The color lake is formed and Slowly absorbed by the wool after the manner

o h as : of a direct dye . The meth d two disadvantages first , part of the color lake is liable to be fixed only superficially

on of is the fiber, second part the dye precipitated in the

for bath and lost . It is, however, largely used both cotton of w and wool, especially in the case cheap dyes like log ood , in which the cost of the dye is not great compared with the

time and cost of labor in dyeing. 61 . To illustrate this method we will dye a skein of woolen

r h 1 0 wo e r ya n wit per cent log od , 3 p cent ferrous sulfate ,

on 1 per cent oxalic acid in 200 c . c . of water for e and one

half hours . The methods described for logwood apply to other mor

or is ff x dant colors , that dyestu s which are invariably fi ed

upon the fiber in the form of metallic lakes, with a color

which may be diff erent from that of the coloring principle .

They are very important dyes , being characterized by great

fastness to washing, light and other agencies .

C th e mulberry , and is reared in hina, Japan , India, Italy, to U south of France , Greece , and a slight extent in the nited h S . A t e tates In sia the worms are reared in Open air , but in Europe this is done in sheds . The eggs are placed on ° d th e 1 8 C shelves, an temperature of the room raised from ° 2 C 1 to 5 in 2 days, when the eggs hatch , the caterpillars and are removed to another room , feed on the leaves of the D YEING OF TEX TILE F IBERS 33

white mulberry . They grow rapidly , changing their skin

At 0 every 4 to 6 days . the end of 3 to 33 days the mature

worms creep into birch twigs or bundles of broom or heather,

where they spin themselves into cocoons . The spinning

lasts 3 days , generally, but in order to be more sure that e all of the worms have ceas d spinning , 5 days are allowed

to elapse before the cocoons are collected . Some of the e finest having been s lected for breeding the rest are killed , either by exposing them in stoves to a temperature of 60 °

C or f 1 . 75 for 3 hours, by steaming them or 0 minutes Before the silk is spun it is found in the worm as two

liquids, one a clear, colorless liquid , the other colorless or ll ye ow, which are both secreted from two glands, one on of each side the head , communicating with a capillary orifice

in the head . The silk liquid solidifies on coming in con

tact with the air, forming a uniform double fiber, which in

A con fter removing the outer portion of the cocoon , which of h sists of a loose tangle t reads, a number of cocoons are to th e placed in warm water soften gum, and the ends of the fibers from 4 to 1 8 cocoons are collected and reeled off as one

of light which it reflects . It is necessary that the pigment “ ” to be opaque in order give good covering power, that is ,

it should entirely conceal the surface to which . it is applied . The chief pigments are given in the following table :

LEATHER MANUFACTURE

The object of tanning is to render the skins of animals

As imputresc ible and pliable . only a small amount of h th e leather is required wit hair on , preliminary treatments are necessary to remove it before entering into the actual

tanning process . In conducting the work along this line it will be found best to follow th e outline as given below 2 k in — A h Soa . s t e nn 94 . g the Skins or hides come to ta er

h l th e t ey are usua ly in dry salted or pickled condition , and

e th e al Of and contain b sides s t a large amount blood dirt . The first step th erefore is to place them in a pit containing

water, where they are allowed to remain until soft . They are then rinsed Off in fresh water to remove as much of the i dirt an d blood as possible . When washing s complete the ll “ ” Skins are placed over a round inclined table ca ed a beam . H - an d ere the excess of flesh , ear laps tail are trimmed Oflbv l “ fl h ” means of a sharp kn ife ca led a e s e r . Machines are h also used to accomplish t is result . — 2 De ilatin . 9 5 . p g The next step in the process consists in removing th e hair and epidermis and is usually accomplish ed

b n h y mea s of milk of lime , although ot er substances are some

times employed . The most common method in use is to

a ffi h as prep re su cient milk of lime to cover the skins , to which been added 5 per cent of sodium sulfid on the weight of the

lime . The skins, after being introduced into this mixture , are turned twice each day in such a manner as to bring the ones on

th e top into the bottom of the pit . This treatment requires from 4 to 8 days depending on the nature of the skin ; the proper time being indicated by the ease with which the hair

th e and epidermis are removed when rubbed over with finger . The chemical action which takes place in this treatment is due to the combination of the calcium h ydroxid with the fat surrounding the hair pellicle and that between the fiber

thus forming a lime soap, which loosens the hair and epi

u dermis, swells p and separates the fiber bundles . The hair Old ll itself is only very slightly altered . limes wi unhair h much more readily than new ones , w ich is often advan tage ous for dressing goods ; although for sole -leathers and r others requiring firmness, new limes are p eferred . When properly limed th e skins are removed from th e pit l and allowed to drain . They are again p aced over the beam where their plump condition makes it easy to remove the

fle sh in a to remaining flesh with the g knife , and lso scrape ff o the loosened hair by means of a blunt knife . In case of hides (heavy leather) much of the lime is also worked out

A h fle h in by this means . fter un airing and s g the skins or hides are placed in a pin-mill where they are washed with
