when woollens are rubbed with your skin,static current is produced between your skin and the cloth.This static electricity is responsible for the crackling sound...:)
A cotton or woolen sock (natural fibres) will break down in a warm moist landfill in a matter of weeks. A sock made of man-made fibres (rayon, nylon etc) will really never break down. It may break into tiny pieces (which animals and insects may eat) but it will still remain rayon and nylon etc for ever. (It is possible that a chemical reaction, or radiation from the sun, may change its composition.)
Crackle nail polish basically has alchohol in iit. The alcohol makes the nail polish crackle, because of the chemicals in it. Crackle nail polish can also be done at home. Materials: 1) 1 bottle of nail polish (colored nail polish perferred) 2) 1 bottle of alcohol Procedure: Step 1) open the bottle of nail polish Step 2) open alchol, and poor 1 cap of alcohol into 1 bottle of nail polish Step 3) shake up the nail polish Step 4) apply to nails with nail polish on it. It takes a few secs to start to crackle. And wala! There u go homemade crackle nail polish!! ;)
Italy - the Azzurri.
Cotton generally dries slower than nylon because cotton can absorb more water, making it heavier and slower to dry. Nylon, on the other hand, is a synthetic material that repels water and dries faster.
I used to use narrow threads of nylon. After washing, I would measure the force it takes to bend the nylon. After 24 hours, there was no change in force, and so I thought it was totally dry. At least as dry as it was going to get. Of course, if you use a hair dryer, it could dry much faster.
Nylon takes about 30-40 years to decompose. Factors that influence its decomposition rate include exposure to sunlight, temperature, and the presence of microorganisms that break down the material.
When I was an EMT we used hydrogen peroxide for blood stains on our white dress shirts.
The time it takes for laundry to wash shirts depends on factors like the washing machine cycle, water temperature, and the amount of detergent used. Shirts may take longer to wash if they are heavily soiled, or if the washing machine has a longer cycle selected.
Nylon rope can be dyed, but it takes some special consideration. You must use an acid dye, and the rope will need to be boiled for a time in the dye to make sure the color fully binds with the synthetic material. For best results, be sure to follow the instructions from the dye manufacturer/ supplier.
The most popular chuck Norris t-shirts are the ones with the best slogans. Such slogans as "chuck norris doesnt take showers he takes blood baths" are very popular. There is even a website where you can make your own t-shirt with your favorite slogan. Check out chucknorrisfacts for the custom t-shirts.
You can try soaking the shirts in a mixture of water and vinegar for a few hours before washing them. Another option is to add baking soda to the washing machine when washing the shirts. Make sure to air dry the shirts afterwards to prevent the mildew smell from returning.
No- from my experience with drip-dry cottondrying on a line. In fact, pants may dry a little slower- the waist area takes longer, it seems. Rayon and polyester dry faster than cotton regardless whether they are shirts or pants.
