The shrinkage of untreated flannel and of flannel containing different amounts of polymethyl methacrylate, applied from solution in acetone, has been determined as a function of the time of milling. Comparison of the rates of shrinkage of treated and untreated flannel, at corresponding values of shrinkage, permits discrimination between the spot‐welding and scale‐masking functions of the polymer, and reveals the lubricating effect of the scale‐masking polymer on movement of the fibres.
