- 1947-Mar
Two views of a measuring cell used during the early stages of synthetic fiber production and research at DuPont. Typically, such cells were placed in an electrolyte bath as part of a metered device used to measure the denier, or thickness, of a filament. The photographs are labeled "Figure 3a" and "Figure 4," indicating that they were used in a report or publication.
