The Felting of Wool Fabrics Washed at Various Values of pH, and the Isoelectric Point Determined by Streaming Potential Measurements

Abstract
The zeta potentials of wools treated by chlorination and by chlorine/Hercosett have been found to differ markedly. Fabrics made from the two wools and from a blend of the two were washed together at two values of pH. Under these conditions there is no evidence that surface charge effects make any contribution to felting shrinkage.
