Jigsaw Puzzle : Nylon stocking, SEM
Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Nylon stocking, SEM
Nylon stocking fibres. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the weave of a nylon stocking. Nylon is a polyamide substance, and was the first synthetic fibre ever to be produced. Nylon fibres are stronger and more elastic than silk and are relatively insensitive to moisture and mildew. Nylon is used in the manufacture of textiles, moulded articles and medical sutures. Magnification: x17 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate weave of a nylon stocking, as captured through a colored scanning electron microscope (SEM). Nylon, being the first-ever synthetic fiber to be produced, revolutionized the textile industry. The strength and elasticity of nylon fibers surpass those of silk, making it an ideal material for various applications. Nylon's remarkable properties include its resistance to moisture and mildew, rendering it relatively insensitive to these common environmental factors. This quality has made it highly sought after in the manufacturing of textiles, molded articles, and even medical sutures. The magnification level used for this SEM image is x17 at a 6x7cm size. By zooming in so closely on the fabric's structure, we gain a newfound appreciation for its complexity and beauty. Each individual thread intertwines with precision to form an interlaced pattern that gives nylon stockings their distinctive appearance. Beyond its practical uses in clothing and fashion accessories like tights or stockings, this photograph reminds us of the profound impact that scientific advancements have had on our everyday lives. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and innovation in creating materials that enhance our comfort while pushing boundaries in multiple industries.
