...dried in the same way, and so on for any number of layers, until the coat has the requisite thickness. Caoutchouc is not altered by exposure to the air. It is perfectly insoluble in water, but if boiled for some time in this liquid, it becomes somewhat transparent, owing to the abstraction of the sooty... | |
