Before dyeing stockings are pre-processed. Stockings intended for dyeing are sorted, and the dirty and oily ones are usually sent for black dyeing.

To dye in light, delicate colors, only clean stockings are bleached. To bleach the stockings, first boil them in a soda solution. Water takes 10-15 times the weight of the material; For every liter of water take 10% soda ash. Water is poured into the boiler and heated to 30-50 °C. Dissolve the soda in a separate bowl and filter the solution into the cauldron through a rag. Having stirred the cauldron, put stockings in it, cover it with a holey circle on top and load it with cobblestones, but not too heavy, so as not to press the material to the bottom, otherwise it may burn during cooking.

Having finished loading, they begin to heat the boiler more strongly and boil for 5-6 hours. As it boils, add water. The boiling should be calm and uniform. Approximately every half hour or hour the material is turned over. The boiled material is removed, squeezed out and washed well, first in warm and then in cold water. Then they begin the bleaching itself.

Cold water is poured into a wooden tub or barrel. For each liter of water taken, weigh out 5-10 g of bleaching lime, mix it with hot water and pour it through a fine sieve or paper cloth into a barrel of water. Mix well and set the strength of the solution to 0,75-1 °Be. Boiled stockings are immersed in this solution and left to lie for 1 hour, occasionally stirring with a wooden stick. Then the stockings are removed from the solution, placed on wire racks and allowed to sit in the air for 15 minutes. Afterwards, the stockings are washed well in several waters and immersed in a weak solution of hydrochloric or sulfuric acid. To do this, pour cold water into a wooden barrel and take 5-10 g of acid for each liter of water. The stockings remain in this solution for 1 hour, after which they are washed well in 2-3 waters. Sometimes, after acid treatment, immersion in a weak solution of antichlorine (hyposulfite) is practiced to remove traces of chlorine.

After bleaching, stockings should be dyed as soon as possible, since if the product is partially dry, uneven dyeing may occur. If the bleached stockings are not intended for dyeing, but are left white, then after washing they are blued with a weak solution of a mixture of violet and blue aniline substantive dyes. To dye stockings in different colors, mainly substantive (alkaline) dyes are used. For black, sulfur paint is mainly used. They usually paint in an open cast-iron cauldron; Copper boilers cannot be used, as they are corroded by sulfur dioxide, which is used when dyeing with sulfur dyes. Mercerized goods are painted separately from non-mercerized goods.

For mercerized stockings, approximately 20-30% less paint is used than for non-mercerized stockings. Mercerized goods must be painted carefully and not in a too hot bath, so as not to spoil the shine. For 100% stocking goods, take 20-23 g of paint, 10-12 g of soda sulfide, 4-5 g of soda ash and 20-25 g of Glauber's salt. Fill the dye bath as follows.

Pour 1 to 2 liters of water into the boiler (for the quantities indicated above) and dissolve soda and Glauber’s salt in it. The paint is dissolved in a solution of soda sulphide, the soda sulphide is dissolved in 100 cm3 of water heated to 60-70 °C and poured into the boiler. Everything is mixed and heated to 60-70 °C, after which the stockings are immersed. The entire bath is heated at a temperature of 65-75 °C for 40-45 minutes. When dyeing, you need to make sure that all the material is immersed in the liquid; if some of it is outside, the coloring will turn out uneven. At the beginning of dyeing, the material is turned over more often, at the end - less often. After dyeing, squeeze out the material as best as possible and leave it in the air for 10-15 minutes to “mature” the color, after which it is thoroughly washed. Finally, the stockings are boiled for 10-15 minutes in a weak soap solution (10 g of soap per 1 liter of water), washed thoroughly and dried. When dyeing stockings in light fashionable colors, substantive dyes are used.

Bleached stockings are immersed in a dye bath heated to 35-40 °C and gradually heated to a gentle boil. During heating, gradually add a solution of Glauber's salt or table salt; For 1 kg of dry material, take approximately 1 to 1,5 liters of water and 100 g of Glauber's salt. Paint for about 1 hour. After dyeing, rinse well in cold water. To create dye baths of various colors for 4 kg of dry stockings you should take:

For light beige: 5 g anil-brown DZG and 5 g anil-dark black RV Extra.

For light gray: 5 g of anil-dark black RV Extra and 0,5 g of anil-brown DZG.

For tan colors: 3 g anil brown DZG, 1 g anil brown M, 1% anil dark black PB Extra.

For steel: 10g Anil Dark Black RV Extra.

For light brown: 70 g anil-brown DZG, 2 g anil-dark black RV Extra.

For dark brown: 8 g anil brown DZG, 4 g anil dark black RB Extra, 0,5 g anil green PB and 0,5 g anil orange C.

If weight gain is required, then use a dressing made from dextrin, bitter salt and monopole soap. For example, a weight gain of 25% is obtained by placing stockings in a solution of 150 g of dextrin, 100 g of bitter salt and 5 g of soap per 1 liter of water. Using cold or hot pressing, gloss is obtained.

If you want the stockings to rustle like silk, then they are treated with a lukewarm solution of nuclear soap, and then rinsed in a solution of tartaric acid, repeating this treatment 2 to 3 times until the desired results are obtained. If tartaric acid changes the color of the material, it is replaced with sodium tartaric salt.

Mental health of magicians 26.11.2023

Magicians were found to be less susceptible to mental disorders, such as perceptual disorders and antisociality, compared to representatives of other creative professions and the general population. This raises the question of how strong the connection is between creativity and mental disorders and requires more research.

A new study has shown that magicians have stable mental health, which highlights the uniqueness and characteristics of their mental profile in comparison with other creative professions.

Conventional wisdom links creativity to mental disorders, suggesting that they promote creativity and generate out-of-the-box ideas. Previous studies have even indicated that mental health disorders, including features of schizophrenia and autism, are more common among creative professions such as artists, comedians and scientists.

However, previous studies ignored differences between representatives of different fields of creativity and did not pay attention to magicians and illusionists. Magicians' work requires a high level of creativity to create a variety of tricks with simple props and complex illusions. Illusionists, often without room for error, must maintain high precision in their actions. Magicians themselves claim that they chose this profession to compensate for the lack of social interaction.

The study, conducted by psychologists at Aberystwyth University, included 195 magicians aged 18 to 90. Participants were asked to fill out questionnaires, based on which scientists assessed the presence of signs of mental disorders.

Contrary to expectations, an increased frequency of magical thinking and hallucinations was not found among magicians. They were also less likely to experience three of the four traits tested: cognitive disorganization, impulsive nonconformity, and introverted anhedonia. However, they did not differ in the frequency of autistic manifestations.

Cognitive disorganization, characterized by difficulty concentrating and social anxiety, was not common among magicians as it would make it difficult to perform their work. Impulsive nonconformism, associated with violation of social norms and lack of self-control, also did not fit the profile of illusionists. Introverted anhedonia, which manifests itself as a lack of satisfaction from social and physical interactions with people, could interfere with their work focused on audience response. In general, the mental profile of magicians turned out to be closer to those who do mathematics and science, with the exception of autistic manifestations.
