Artificial sponges from cellulose in Germany
Artificial sponges are made in Germany by treating pure cellulose with sine chloride. The product swells in water and on drying becomes hard. Alkalikaloida are used to prevent thin action. A pasty mass is obtained, treated with rock galt, then placed in a mold. When renewed it appears to be traversed by canals in all directions and after washing in alcohol and water the sponge is ready for use.
