Abstract
EXPERIMENTS were begun some eighteen months ago to determine the fine structure of wool by X-ray analysis with the object of attempting to explain its elastic properties. Some intimation of the earlier results was given at the discussion on the properties of colloids at the Leeds meeting of the British Association in 1927. The experiments have now reached the stage where it seems possible to draw some important conclusions.
