Abstract: A sheet of paper suitable as a multi-copy paper or once only copy paper is made by coating with a layer of finely particulate mutually adherent particles of a vinyl chloride polymer if pigments are used as colouring matter and of any swellable polymer if a dyed layer is to be used. Generally, the particulate material is swelled using suitable swelling agents and applied to a support layer by any suitable coating process.
Abstract: A surface modified continuous filament yarn and method for producing same is provided wherein a continuous filament twisted yarn is stretched and, while in its stretched or elongated state, contacted with an effective amount of a swelling agent for a period of time effectively to substantially rupture fibers on the surface of the elongated yarn without effecting interior fibers of the yarn, thereafter quenching the swelling agent and recovering a modified continuous filament yarn.
