Abstract
The examination of the constituents of the wax of cotton has been extended to Egyptian Sakellaridis cotton. It is shown that most of the component alcohols, acids, esters and hydrocarbons are very similar to, and many of them actually identical with, those of American cotton. The conclusion may therefore be drawn that Egyptian cotton will behave like American cotton in scouring, as far as the wax is concerned, and that any conclusions drawn from experiments on the removal of wax from American cotton may justifiably be applied to Egyptian cotton.Keywords
