Color change water-washed cloths

Tables I-IV summarize the preceding results in terms of the ratios of tetrahydridoborate-treated to water-washed cloth for color change and strength retention. Table I shows that the TMA treatment does little to affect the change in color of new or slightly degraded cloth, but it is quite effective for those cloths that have been aged significantly. Table II yields similar conclusions for NaBHi, although NaBHi does not appear to do as well as TMA. This result indicates that extremely long...

Note-. Values are the differences in color change at 150 °C between new cloth that was washed with water and new cloth that was treated with TMA. Negative values mean that the water-washed cloth was less discolored than the treated cloth.
