Recent at- tention has been given to production of imitation parchment and grease- proof papers such as glassine. Sul- phite pulp is .well suited to the moulding of plastics such as. toys and novelties by incorporating binders. Vulcanized fibre or hard rubber sub- stitute is usually made by treating pulp with zinc chloride and mixing with red ferric oxide, with the addi- tion of glycerine if a phable product is desired. Some of the paper wheels and pulleys come under this head. A sample of surgical cotton substitute from Europe turned out to be an excellent product from bleached sul- phite pulp and it is reported that large quantities are being used by Germany during the present cotton shortage. Viscose is one of the artificial silk materials which can be readily made from wood pulp. Bleached sulphite pulp is first con- verted to alkali cellulose by treating with strong caustic soda and then to soluble cellulose zanthate by the addition of carbon disulphide. After pressing into threads through dies or moulding into heavier articles the material is readily converted back to stable cellulose in the form of art
