Dissolve the soda in
the water, pour the solution over the dry glue, let stand over night or till
thoroughly soaked
and swelled, then heat carefully on a water bath until
dissolved. When nearly cold stir in the oil of cloves.
By using white glue,
a finer article, fit for fancy work, may be made.
3- Dissolve by
heating 60 parts of borax in 420 parts of water, add 480 parts dextrin (pale
yellow) and 50
parts of glucose and heat carefully with continued stirring,
to complete solution ; replace the evaporated water
and pour through
flannel.
The glue made in
this way remains clear quite a long time and possesses reat adhesive power;
it also dries
very quickly but upon careless and extended heating above 90°
C (194° F.), it is apt to turn brown and brittle.
