Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. Delving into the intriguing connection between light and silk fabrics, this book comprehensively explores the effects of various light wavelengths on both weighted and unweighted silk materials. The author meticulously examines factors influencing silk's durability, such as weighting agents and cleaning methods, and delves into the impact of mechanical wear, perspiration, and environmental conditions. By analyzing the tensile strength, stretch, pH, and color changes of silk exposed to light, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of the mechanisms that govern silk's deterioration and preservation. The book's findings are essential reading for textile scientists, conservators, and anyone interested in the science behind the beauty and longevity of silk.
