Description

Everything you need to discover how fibers are different. Conduct burn, solubility, stain resistance, and wrinkle resistance tests using simple, easily found tools and chemicals. Students will learn skills in observation, analysis, and reporting. After testing known fabrics, they will test a mystery fabric to determine the fiber content of the fabric. Kit is well-organized in an easy-to-store, sturdy three-ring binder. The instruction/experiment directions are handy for easy duplicating and the fabric swatches are in a plastic zippered case. Fabric colors/patterns will vary. For 10 students or groups.
