- Nwankwo Kanu signed for Arsenal from Inter Milan in February 1999
- Despite arriving mid-season, he ended up becoming an important squad member for Wenger
- The Nigerian enjoyed a five-year spell with the Gunners as he helped them win two EPL titles and two FA Cups
Arsene Wenger has snubbed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and named Nwankwo Kanu as his best January signing for Arsenal.
Kanu joined Arsenal from Serie A side Inter Milan in a deal valued at £4.15 million in February 1999 and went on to become a huge success at the north London club.

During his stay with the Gunners, the Nigerian international helped Arsenal win two Premier League titles and two FA Cups before he left to sign for West Brom five years later.
Wenger went on to make some success winter signings in the winter period for Arsenal.
The players include Nicolas Anelka, Edu and Kolo Toure all who turned out to play an integral role during Wenger's tenure.

Aubameyang who joined Arsenal from Borussia Dortmund before Wenger's departure also hit the ground running shortly after his arrival.
But when asked to name his best January deal on beIN Sports during his tenure, the Frenchman singled out Kanu while admitting it was a tough call to make.
"What a difficult question. Over 20 years… maybe Kanu. In the middle of the season, that had a big impact and was a huge player," he said.

Wenger further observed he was against the principle of the January transfer window as he was of the opinion clubs be allowed to sign players throughout the season as it were when he arrived in England.
"It is not right, when once you have started the season, you have to finish the season with the same players," he noted.
"Or you keep it open the whole season like it was when I arrived in England. They have chosen a rule that is not right," he added.

Content Marketing
Content is king. If your website is plagued with text that's only talking to bots, you have a problem. Instead, you'll want copy that's crisp, engaging and most of all, informative. When visitors flock to your site, you can either drive them away with drivel, or draw them in with educational content on products or services that you can provide. This could include blogs, videos, infographics, guides and plenty more.
Traditional ads are done and dusted. Conversely, content marketing provides a richer experience to visitors and engages them with your brand in a way that truly brings value. Remember, you've got to give value before you gain it. This could be through quality copy that effectively educates your visitor on products and services that you offer. You can clearly explain to them why they need it before ever expecting to make a sale to them.
Providing free content to your visitors automatically puts you at an advantage over competitors. Visitors instantly warm up to a brand that gives before it ever gets. Think of it as an asset. One that builds a long term engagement with your customer as opposed to ads that are merely a flash in the pan. Better still, if you've got something worth sharing, your visitors will spread the good word for you by sharing your content.
Our connoisseurs of content at Digitally Yours will give your website a radical revamp. The kind that connects with your customers instantly and drives that traffic right back to your digital doorstep.

The Ape Chat server has just been updated with some new content which you can now take advantage if you are using the Ape Chat web app (https://chat.ape-apps.com/) or the client that is built into the Ape Apps Launcher. Here is an overview of the new features.
Firstly, on the left chat sidebar that has the channel listing, you will now see two new sections for your Private Channels and your Private Conversations.
This helps you keep things grouped together nicely. And speaking of Private Conversations, there are private conversations now! Previously, you could send somebody a direct message using the @username switch, but the message would only be delivered if the user was currently in chat. Now, private conversations are persisted on the server as a personal one-on-one chat room. Private conversation chats can only be accessed by the two users involved, and are also voice-enabled channels for one on one voice chat.
In addition, if you right-click on a username from your private conversations list, you will see a new Private Window option. Clicking on it will open a new mini-chat window for your one-on-one conversation, so you can have multiple one-on-ones going separate from the main chat.
Eventually, if you install Ape Chat as a PWA on your system (which, by the way, you can now do in Chrome and new MS Edge), you will also receive desktop or mobile notifications when you get a new private chat message, even if you don't have Ape Chat open. This will also work by having the Ape Apps Launcher installed.
I have expanded Ape Apps Account friends list capabilities. If you open your Friends List from either the Ape Apps Launcher or clicking on the new 'Friends' icon at the top of the base Ape Web Apps website (https://www.apewebapps.com/), you will get the updated Friends List popup window, which will allow you to accept or reject friend requests, see who is online, view friends' profile, or open the private one-on-one chat window right from the friends list:
I plan on expanding Friend List management further, and also making the friends window accessible from the individual apps and games, but for now the best way to access it is by going to https://www.apewebapps.com/ and clicking on the Friends List icon.
So that's it for this Ape Chat update. I still need to push the changes out to the Ape Chat Android application, but I plan to keep improving the Ape Chat service as time goes on, integrating it further into the Friends service and into the individual apps and games!

Intakes and excretion route of nitrogen, phosphorous and sulfur by finishing beef heifers fed increasing levels of wheat dried distillers grains with solubles to substitute for barley grain and barley silage
Li, Y.L., Beauchemin, K.A., McAllister, T.A., Yang, W.Z. (2014). Intakes and excretion route of nitrogen, phosphorous and sulfur by finishing beef heifers fed increasing levels of wheat dried distillers grains with solubles to substitute for barley grain and barley silage, 170 43-52. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.livsci.2014.09.020
© 2014. A study was conducted to determine the fecal and urinary excretion of N, P and S with increasing inclusion of wheat dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) to substitute for barley grain and barley silage in finishing diet fed to growing beef heifers. Eight ruminally fistulated Angus heifers were assigned to a replicated 4×4 Latin square design with 21. d periods using diets consisting of barley silage, barley concentrate, and wheat DDGS in ratios of 150:850:0, 100:650:250, 50:650:300 and 0:650:350 (DM basis), respectively, for control (CON), low (DDGS25), medium (DDGS30) and high (DDGS35) DDGS diets. Heifers were fed a total mixed ration for ad libitum intake. Total collection of feces and urine were conducted for 5. d in each experimental period. Intake of N was higher for heifers fed DDGS diets than heifers fed CON diet with no differences among DDGS diets. The increased N intake resulted in an increase in N retention as well as increased N excretion. The N was primarily excreted in urine (~700. g/kg N excreted) with less in feces (~300. g/kg N excreted). Urinary N excretion linearly increased, whereas fecal N excretion linearly decreased, with increasing dietary DDGS inclusion. Intake of P was higher for DDGS than CON, but linearly decreased with increasing DDGS inclusion in the diets due to decreased DMI. Total P excretion was higher whereas P retention was lower in heifers fed DDGS than heifers fed CON diets. The majority of P was excreted by feces (from 897 to 634. g/kg P excreted) and linearly decreased with increasing dietary DDGS inclusion; conversely, the urinary P excretion linearly increased. Feeding DDGS diets considerably increased S intake with no differences among DDGS diets. Only a small part of S consumed was retained and the excretion of S via feces was lower, but the excretion via urine was higher, for heifers fed DDGS compared with heifers fed CON diet. Results indicate that inclusion 250 to 350. g/kg wheat DDGS in finishing diets substantially increased the intakes and excretion of N, P, and S. Increasing the excretion of N, P, and S is a primary environmental concern when using DDGS in feedlot cattle. Developing nutrient management programs that minimize N, P and S losses to the environment and maximize plant use need to be considered.

With the campaign for votes entering its final stages, we look at the five candidates who are standing for election in North West Cambridgeshire.
Shailesh Vara (Conservative)
This is the most important general election for a generation.
Regardless of how people voted in the European Union referendum, the fact is we are leaving the EU and we need a prime minister who will get the best possible deal for us in the tough and complex negotiations that lie ahead in Brussels.
I firmly believe the best person to lead Britain in these difficult negotiations is Theresa May.
Voting for me helps to give Theresa May a strong public mandate and it strengthens her hand as she negotiates for Britain.
More locally, North West Cambridgeshire is a huge constituency – from the borders of Lincolnshire, through south Peterborough, down to the border of Huntingdon and villages beyond. It has one of the largest electorates in the country.
I live in the constituency and have worked alongside many local groups and organisations on a variety of issues and have also helped thousands of people on a personal basis, on a broad range of subjects.
In parliament, I have introduced two private member's bills - one to try to increase the age range for breast cancer screening and the other to provide more rights to householders when they are faced with intruders in their own homes.
I have also served as a justice minister and a minister for work and pensions.
It has been an enormous privilege serving the local community as your MP for the past 12 years and I ask that you vote for me to allow me to continue serving you.
Gregor Guthrie (Green Party)
I have lived and worked in the Peterborough area for nearly 20 years. I have a degree in civil engineering from Liverpool University and have worked as a civil engineer since then.
I have a strong principal commitment to the area but also a commitment, more widely, to developing a fairer society within the UK; where we show respect for all individuals and for the environment within which we live.
As your Green Party MP I would work hard with local businesses in North West Cambridgeshire and in Westminster to create a local economy that delivers the services, jobs, housing and infrastructure that we need without exploiting either the environment or the people who live here.
I would fight on your behalf to make sure the NHS is not broken up and sold off to private commercial interests. I would deliver what patients need with due respect for the NHS workers who are the beating heart of this service.
I would oppose the creation of exclusive grammar schools, campaign for the abolition of tuition fees and resist the endless testing our children currently endure.
The Green Party offers an alternative to the political complacency that people in North West Cambridgeshire have endured.
You can now vote for a forward-facing Green Party candidate who truly understands our environmental issues and who will put people, our communities and our future at the heart of everything I do.
Iain Ramsbottom (Labour)
Iain and his wife and three children live in Oldhurst. He is the chairman of the North West Cambridgeshire constituency Labour Party and has been for seven years. He is self-employed as a market trader in local towns.
Speaking after his selection, Iain said: "Cambridgeshire is my home. It's where I live and work and I am proud to be Labour's candidate for
June's general election.
"This Tory government has overseen the biggest cuts to our public services in a generation. The NHS and social care is in crisis, our schools are struggling under the weight of the budget cuts and cuts to police budgets are putting our safety at risk. They are sacrificing our hard won public services on the altar of their tax cuts for the wealthy and big business.
"People here in North West Cambs need a local representative who will put them first. I will work tirelessly between now and June to let local people know that this general election will be a choice between a Labour Party that will stand up for the people of North West Cambs or a Conservative Party that only looks after the privileged few."
Graeme Watkins, treasurer, and Kevin Minnette, secretary of the North West Cambs constituency Labour Party, said: "We welcome the appointment of Iain as Labour's candidate for North West Cambs.
"As someone who lives in the constituency, we know that if elected, he will put this area first and will be a committed and local MP – that's what North West Cambs deserves."
John Whitby (UKIP)
I'm proud to have been selected as the UKIP parliamentary candidate for the North West Cambridgeshire, the constituency that I both live in and work in.
This is a tough and supposedly safe Tory seat, and the sitting Conservative MP knows that he has to do nothing, or very little to get re-elected. I intend to change that. There are two important things about this general election. Firstly, Brexit is a vital part of it, and we need a strong, pro-Brexit MP to reflect the vote to leave the EU in the referendum. The current MP is a staunch remain campaigner. The Conservatives are not the only Brexit party, UKIP's success in the European elections forced David Cameron into promising he would hold a referendum if he got a majority.
He got a majority, then lost the referendum and promptly ran away from the responsibility. Now we have Theresa May, pretending to want a hard Brexit, but already backsliding, we possibly will remain under the European Court of Human Rights among other concessions. We must apply the UKIP six-point test on any Brexit deal, otherwise we don't actually leave.
Secondly, the country's next five years is dependent upon this election result, and a totally Conservative-dominated parliament will not be good for the ordinary people of North West Cambridgeshire, or of the UK as a whole.
UKIP stands for the ordinary people of this country, their hopes and their aspirations as we move into the post-EU world.
Bridget Smith (Liberal Democrat)
Bridget Smith launched her general election campaign with speeches in Peterborough and St Neots.
She talked about the importance of a Brexit deal based on facts and not fictions, saying: "People voted for Brexit but they didn't vote for price rises and fewer jobs.
Everyone has a right to know how much any deal is going to cost them".
Bridget received enthusiastic responses from audiences when she promised to use her knowledge of the 'Cambridge Phenomenon' to secure local jobs for local people by levering business and industry into the constituency, attracted by good quality premises, affordable housing and good transport links.
She highlighted the need to train young people locally for the new 21st century employment market.
She talked passionately about the role of education and the need for adequate funding, high quality schools and motivated and valued staff.
She spoke also of her vision to create strong communities with state of the art community facilities for everyone.
She said: "Strong communities mean less crime, cleaner streets and happier and more engaged residents. I have achieved this in my own village and I can do it again in North West Cambridgeshire"
Bridget plans to take this message of a return to truth and kept promises across the constituency but acknowledges it is a huge geographic area. She said: "We are going to be doing a lot of miles. But it will be worth it to prove to people that we can do so much better than the current government."

Writers, studios to resume talks, sources say
Hollywood's film and TV writers and major studios have agreed to go back to the negotiating table on Nov. 26 in hopes of ending a bruising strike that began two weeks ago, according to two people familiar with the matter.
Writers, however, haven't agreed to put down their picket signs. They will continue to strike as planned next week.
Although the talks are a positive sign, the two sides have huge hurdles to overcome to reach a new contract to replace one that expired Oct. 31.
The sides have clashed mainly over how writers should be paid when their work is distributed via the Internet, cellphones and other new-media devices.

Hi all,
I'm looking for feedback on my own newly-launched label of unconventionally designed, architecture-inspired phone cases (www.larskaizer.com). We just launched the website 4 days ago, and havent received much views nor made a single sale *sigh*. We are not sure what can bring brand awareness yet, as spending on paid advertising on facebook and instagram has not been very fruitful yet.
Hi Larry! Maggie, Shopify Expert here :)
Very impressive looking store - I love your sleek designs and the theme which fits your niche perfectly. One suggestion - consider adding more trust signals: About us page, Shiping and Returns page. You only mention the return info in the footer, but that's not enough. Make sure to clearly state how long is your return policy and whether you have any exceptions or offer 'no-quibble' refunds. People will be then assured they can shop with confidence with you, and know what to expect. The shipping policy will also give them an idea of how long is the delivery and how much they are likely to pay, and whether you deliver to their country.
Policies like this, with plenty of detailed info, is something online shoppers are often expecting to find before placing an order. Not having them in place and easy to find can definitely affect your conversion rate. Hope it helps!

You've probably never heard of Ganna Walska. But 99 years ago, the Polish-born opera singer was at the centre of one of the great scandals of her age.
Walska was a great beauty, but not a great singer — she is believed to be the inspiration for Susan Alexander's ill-fated opera singer in the Orson Welles movie Citizen Kane.

This Week in History: 1921 An operatic femme fatale sets off an international scandal Back to video
Nonetheless, she had no shortage of suitors — she was married six times, usually to very wealthy men.
A wire feature in the Oct. 23, 1921 edition of The Vancouver Sun was delightfully salacious.
"Walska hinted at her fame in Europe, but the truth is she was brought up almost in poverty, a child victim of an unhappy marriage at 17, (who) spent years knocking around one cabaret and music hall to another," said the story.
"In Kiev she appeared as the Merry Widow, but Moscow, Warsaw and other Russian cities of prewar gaiety have only a vague memory of a black-eyed girl with the grace of a panther and the temper of a tiger.

Review & Preview – Week 13 of Iowa's Legislative Session
House Passes Omnibus Gun Bill – AGAIN
Senate Now Gets A Do-Over
Week 13 recap:
What you need to know for week 14:
This week the Iowa Legislature will be very busy addressing education funding issues. There are school funding deadlines this week that must be met. What this means is the Iowa House and Senate will likely be wrapped up in education issues and the odds of the Omnibus Gun Bill making any formal progress this week are slim.
This changes nothing.
We continue to work extremely hard both publicly and privately to get this bill the vote it deserves. We bring up this education issue so that you know exactly what is happening and aren't caught off guard or become disheartened as the week goes on without much movement.
What you can do right now:
The bill has the votes to pass if/when it gets called to the Senate floor. You have done an extraordinary job of educating Iowa's lawmakers about the Omnibus Gun Bill, it's been impossible for them to ignore this issue.
But this week we need to you to shift your focus away from the legislature and over to the people of Iowa. We need you to spread the word about the plight of the Omnibus Gun Bill thus far.
We have the votes to pass the Omnibus Gun Bill. But regardless of whether it comes to a vote or not this message needs to get out.
We've created a couple of videos to help you show the facts about this bill. Please feel free to share these with anyone who may be misinformed about the Omnibus Gun Bill. Right now, more than anything else we need the people of Iowa to know the truth about this bill and the way it's been handled thus far in the Iowa Senate.
Of course we'll be emailing you if there's any critical updates. If you're looking for more information we're posting regular updates on our Facebook and Twitter pages

text: © 2019, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature. We investigate the jamming transition in a quasi-2D granular material composed of regular pentagons or disks subjected to quasistatic uniaxial compression. We report six major findings based on experiments with monodisperse photoelastic particles with static friction coefficient μ≈ 1. (1) For both pentagons and disks, the onset of rigidity occurs when the average coordination number of non-rattlers, Znr, reaches 3, and the dependence of Znr on the packing fraction ϕ changes again when Znr reaches 4. (2) Though the packing fractions ϕc1 and ϕc2 at these transitions differ from run to run, for both shapes the data from all runs with different initial configurations collapses when plotted as a function of the non-rattler fraction. (3) The averaged values of ϕc1 and ϕc2 for pentagons are around 1 % smaller than those for disks. (4) Both jammed pentagons and disks show Gamma distribution of the Voronoi cell area with same parameters. (5) The jammed pentagons have similar translational order for particle centers but slightly less orientational order for contacting pairs compared to jammed disks. (6) For jammed pentagons, the angle between edges at a face-to-vertex contact point shows a uniform distribution and the size of a cluster connected by face-to-face contacts shows a power-law distribution.

One of the most painful aspects of addiction is that it isolates the sufferer. The spiritual and emotional torment that comes from these habits is extremely destructive and often sees the person withdrawing inward until they're truly alone – separated from their family, their friends, and their faith. At Mid-Atlantic Teen Challenge, we're dedicated not just to tackling addiction head-on but also making sure that your son doesn't have to face it alone. This is where our mentoring programs come in.
Teen addiction takes a serious toll. Recovery is often just as hard – especially by yourself. While it's hard for family and friends to always be there for someone who has been transformed by addiction as they attempt to come back to the light, Mid-Atlantic Teen Challenge mentors know how to navigate those struggles.
Here you can find out more about Mid-Atlantic Teen Challenge mentoring programs, and how it works with the rest of our recovery program.
Why Mentoring Programs?
Like our discipleship programs, our mentoring programs are derived from our Biblical approach to teen addiction recovery. Mentor relationships can be found throughout the Bible, from Jesus with his disciples to the Apostle Paul and Timothy. Our mentors are there to create a one-to-one bond with your teen and help them leave behind their addict's lifestyle. This personal relationship that is focused on honoring God fosters sharing, trust, and spiritual growth.
How Does It Work?
Our mentoring programs work in tandem with our discipleship programs to create a support system throughout the recovery process. Discipleship involves group classes, where your teen son will share their experiences with others who are experiencing the same journey.
Mentoring is one-on-one and helps to not only act as a foundation for the group sessions but also reinforces the positive spiritual experience and provides a trusted friend to talk to. As the recovery progresses, discipleship integrates more personal sessions with reading assignments, journaling, and meetings with the coordinator.
Remember that every teen's experience will be different, as the needs of each recovering teen will be unique.
Who Are the Mentors?
Our mentors are experienced staff who have dealt with countless teens struggling with addiction, guiding them through our faith-based recovery process. The mentors at Mid-Atlantic Teen Challenge are dedicated and invested in every teen that enters the program, with some even having gone through the recovery journey themselves.
Contact Mid-Atlantic Teen Challenge Today
If your teenage son is struggling with the vices of addiction, Mid-Atlantic Teen Challenge is waiting to help. With our mentoring programs and other residential programs for troubled youth, we take a faith-focused approach to drug addiction help that can bring your teenage son out of the fog and back into God's light. Contact us for help with teen addiction today.

MIDLAND, Texas (Big 2/Fox 24) – Officials with Midland Health are set to provide another update regarding the rising case numbers and their COVID-19 response Monday morning.
The update comes as case numbers rapidly increased over the past two weeks. More than 240 Coronavirus cases were confirmed just last week in the Tall City. The total case count now stands at 563.
The recent spikes have prompted local doctors to renew their calls for wearing masks in public and to practice social distancing. However, last week local officials stopped short of making masks in public a requirement for residents or businesses.
Midland Mayor Patrick Payton said he was not considering a mask ordinance and opted instead to rely on Tall City residents to be disciplined in their battle against Coronavirus.
Midland Health CEO Russell Meyers also said last week that a mask ordinance would be virtually impossible to enforce but noted he has seen the lax stance on precautions first hand.
"It is also sort of amazing to me that we have to tell adults in our community who are witnessing these explosive increases in positive cases everyday that they have to wear a mask," Meyers said. "We should use our good sense, listen to the experts that are talking to us, recognize that we both protect those around us and to a lesser extent ourselves when we wear a mask in public. Fundamentally, if you can't be at least six feet away from everyone else around you, you should have a mask on. Period. That is not debatable. That is clear. It has been indicated for a long time. It continues to amaze me how few of us are taking those precautions."
Statewide, Gov. Greg Abbott moved to slow the spread of COVID-19 in Texas by issuing an executive order that closed bars and reduced the capacity at local restaurants.
Mayor Payton is expected to address the recent executive order at 3:30 p.m.

A HUDDERSFIELD store has a new canine mascot.
Bumble, a Leonburger bitch, popped in to introduce herself to staff and customers at the Sainsbury's Market Street store.
The pooch will help the supermarket with fundraising activities.
She takes over duties from fundraising giant, Otto, who died last month after helping the store raise thousands of pounds.
Bumble, eight, is a registered Pets As Therapy dog and has been trained to enable her to visit residential homes, hospitals and similar venues.
She is owned by cashier Susan Elliot. Bumble's first official appearance as mascot will be at the supermarket's St George's Day celebrations.
Leonburger dogs originate from Germany and were developed by the Mayor of Leonberg by mating existing dogs with Pyrenean Mountain Dogs and St Bernards.

Steel vs Plastic Plumbing Pipe By Steel plumbing pipe is rust resistant, but not rust proof. When working with older steel pipe, you may need to loosen rust from the threads in order to remove pieces and prevent contamination of drinking water. Threads on this type of pipe tend to be tapered which makes the seal between pipes tighter over time.
Since black steel pipe has no protective coating, it may rust easily in wet or humid environments. Therefore, to prevent black steel pipe from rusting or corroding on both the outside and the inside, users of the pipe might as well make some layers of protection on the outside of the black steel pipe. In fact it is not difficult to do so.

Epidural rates in Pittsburgh hospitals are pretty high, so many of our clients will have one. There are a number of reasons you might still want a doula!
A doula helps with positions and techniques to continue the labor process once the epidural is placed and you're confined to bed. Lying down can slow labor, but we have some ideas that can help you maintain your progress when you're resting. We discuss when you need to just sleep, and when you might want to be more active, even on the epidural. We'll remind you to roll over regularly to maintain even relief from your epidural, too.
Epidurals are not 100% effective, can offer partial relief or wear off, and
With most epidurals, you will still feel the intense pressure during pushing and crowning. You also might not be able to push as effectively with the lessened sensations. We might suggest some different positions, hold your leg, whisper encouraging words, or just cheer you on. We remind your partner to offer you water and refresh your cool compress if you'd like. Pushing can be a very intense sensation, especially if you've not been feeling much for hours.
Often clients want an epidural, but hope to hold out as long as possible. It is rare, but epidurals can wear off and a repeat dose isn't usually as effective. Let us help you get as far as you want to without the medication and decide when you need it.
In very rare instances, women don't find out until they are actually in labor that they can't get an epidural due to some physical abnormality or other medical concern. There are some instances when an epidural may not be administered, such as low platelets, abnormality in your spine, or extremely low blood pressure. If, for some reason you just plain can't have one, wouldn't it be great to have someone there who is experienced in helping with unmedicated birth?
So, you do need a doula to go with your epidural? Yes! An epidural is a great tool and we can help you use it even more effectively.

Cellophane is a thin, transparent sheet made of regenerated cellulose. Its low permeability to air, oils, greases, bacteria, and water makes it useful for food packaging. Cellophane is highly permeable to water vapour, but may be coated with nitrocellulose lacquer to prevent this.
As well as food packaging, cellophane is used in transparent pressure-sensitive tape, tubing and many other similar applications.
Unlike many other similar materials, cellophane is biodegradable. Production uses carbon disulfide, which has been found to be highly toxic to workers; modern manufacturers do not give any information on worker harms.[1]
"Cellophane" is a generic term in some countries, while in other countries it is a registered trademark.
Cellulose from wood, cotton, hemp, or other sources is dissolved in alkali and carbon disulfide to make a solution called viscose, which is then extruded through a slit into a bath of dilute sulfuric acid and sodium sulfate to reconvert the viscose into cellulose. The film is then passed through several more baths, one to remove sulfur, one to bleach the film, and one to add softening materials such as glycerin to prevent the film from becoming brittle.
A similar process, using a hole (a spinneret) instead of a slit, is used to make a fibre called rayon. Chemically, cellophane, rayon and cellulose are polymers of glucose; they differ structurally rather than chemically.
Cellophane was invented by Swiss chemist Jacques E. Brandenberger while employed by Blanchisserie et Teinturerie de Thaon.[3] In 1900, inspired by seeing wine spill on a restaurant's tablecloth, he decided to create a cloth that could repel liquids rather than absorb them. His first step was to spray a waterproof coating onto fabric, and he opted to try viscose. The resultant coated fabric was far too stiff, but the diaphanous film coating could be separated from the backing cloth easily and in one undamaged piece. Seeing the possibilities of this new material on its own, Brandenberger soon abandoned his original idea.
It took ten years for Brandenberger to perfect his film. His chief improvement over earlier work with such films was adding glycerin to soften the material. By 1912 he had constructed a machine to manufacture the film, which he had named Cellophane, from the words cellulose and diaphane ("transparent"). Cellophane was patented that year.[4] The following year, the company Comptoir des Textiles Artificiels (CTA) bought the Thaon firm's interest in Cellophane and established Brandenberger in a new company, La Cellophane SA.[5]
Whitman's candy company initiated use of cellophane for candy wrapping in the United States in 1912 for their Whitman's Sampler. They remained the largest user of imported cellophane from France until nearly 1924, when DuPont built the first cellophane manufacturing plant in the US. Cellophane saw limited sales in the US at first since while it was waterproof, it was not moisture proof—it held water but was permeable to water vapor. This meant that it was unsuited to packaging products that required moisture proofing. DuPont hired chemist William Hale Charch, who spent three years developing a nitrocellulose lacquer that, when applied to Cellophane, made it moisture proof.[6] Following the introduction of moisture-proof Cellophane in 1927, the material's sales tripled between 1928 and 1930, and in 1938, Cellophane accounted for 10% of DuPont's sales and 25% of its profits.[5]
Cellophane played a crucial role in developing the self-service retailing of fresh meat, according to Roger Horowitz, who ran a historic study over the meat-packing industry. Cellophane visibility helped customers know quality of meat before buying. Cellophane also allowed manufacturers to manipulate the appearance of a product by controlling oxygen and moisture levels to prevent discoloration of food.[7]
The British textile company Courtaulds' viscose technology had allowed it to diversify in 1930 into viscose film, which it named "Viscacelle". However, competition with Cellophane was an obstacle to its sales, and in 1935 it founded British Cellophane Limited (BCL) in conjunction with the Cellophane Company and its French parent company CTA.[8] A major production facility was constructed at Bridgwater, Somerset, England, from 1935 to 1937, employing 3,000 workers. BCL subsequently constructed plants in Cornwall, Ontario (BCL Canada), as an adjunct to the existing Courtaulds viscose rayon plant there (from which it bought the viscose solution (AKA dope)), and in 1957 at Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria. Those last two plants were closed in the 1990s.
Present dayEdit
Cellulose film has been manufactured continuously since the mid-1930s and is still used today. As well as packaging a variety of food items, there are also industrial applications, such as a base for such self-adhesive tapes as Sellotape and Scotch Tape, a semi-permeable membrane in a certain type of battery, as dialysis tubing (Visking tubing), and as a release agent in the manufacture of fibreglass and rubber products. Cellophane is the most popular material for manufacturing cigar packaging; its permeability to moisture makes cellophane the perfect product for this application as cigars must be allowed to "breathe" while in storage.
Cellophane sales have dwindled since the 1960s, due to alternative packaging options. The polluting effects of carbon disulfide and other by-products of the process used to make viscose may have also contributed to this; however, cellophane itself is 100% biodegradable, and that has increased its popularity as a food wrapping.
Material propertiesEdit
When placed between two plane polarizing filters, cellophane produces prismatic colours due to its birefringent nature. Artists have used this effect to create stained glass-like creations that are kinetic and interactive.
Cellophane is biodegradable, but highly toxic carbon disulfide is used in most cellophane production. Viscose factories vary widely in the amount of CS2 they expose their workers to, and most give no information about their quantitative safety limits or how well they keep to them.[1][9]
In the UK and in many other countries, "Cellophane" is a registered trademark and the property of Futamura Chemical UK Ltd, based in Wigton, Cumbria, United Kingdom.[10] In the US and some other countries "cellophane" has become genericized, and is often used informally to refer to a wide variety of plastic film products, even those not made of cellulose, such as plastic wrap.
