Every Word Counts (originally published in AATCC News, March 2009)

As AATCC’s journal celebrates its 40th anniversary, it makes sense to consider the importance of words for clear communication among industry professionals. Here are a few articles pulled from our archives:

"Evolution of a Definition" (Textile Chemist and Colorist, June 1978)

"Standard AATCC Definitions: Why and How" (Textile Chemist and Colorist, March 1992)

“Modified Crock Block: The Search for the Ideal Peg” (Textile Chemist and Colorist, August 1987)
