| Abstract: | The topic of this thesis was the choice of adhesive used for the thread-by-thread tear mending method. So far, cellulose ethers have rarely been considered for such. The aim was to investigate the extent to which Benecel™ A4C is a suitable adhesive. Hannah Flock´s findings from 2020 were the basis for the uniaxial tensile test set-up used. Strips of uncoated linen fabric were mended using Benecel™ A4C in 5, 10 and 12% concentration. The mending with a mixture of 20% sturgeon glue and 13% wheat starch paste (1+1 weighed parts) served as a reference. During the testing, the maximum tensile loads and strain were recorded. Benecel™ A4C 12% is not suitable for thread-by-thread tear mending. For one, because of hardships in the execution but mostly due to poor adhesive strength. The 5 and 10% Benecel´s show potential but record weaker tensile loads on average than the sturgeon glue mixture. However, both test sequences show a large dispersion. Therefore, more tests are required to form a definite conclusion. |
