Melamine buttons:
These buttons are made of melamine. They are a record of an
important plastic that was first used during wartime and later
became a popular material for a range of consumer applications.
They also highlight the practical properties of plastics that made
them the perfect replacement for traditional materials such as bone
and ivory. Melamine had an advantage over other traditional button
materials such as bone, ivory and horn. It was water resistant,
didn't burn or melt, was easily made, could be many colours and was
durable. These buttons highlight the importance of plastics in the
post World War Two consumer market. Both style and durability were
essential as new fashions and fabrics of clothing were emerging.
Melamine Buttons – From Tableware to Shirtwear:
You may not put a great deal of thought into the buttons on the
apparel you wear, but trust me, someone did. One of the most
amazing developments in button technology (if there is such a
thing) in the twentieth century is the use of Melamine Resin, a
plastic polymer formed by melamine and formaldehyde. Melamine
products are shatterproof, fireproof, and incredibly light, which
made them a natural fit for military applications, but not in the
way you might initially imagine.
In 1940, the US Navy was looking for a replacement for its
tableware. The ceramic plates, bowls, and mugs they had been using
were too heavy, fragile, and large for the Navy’s uses, especially
when the onset of WWII looked to engulf the United States at any
given moment. The British armed forces had switched over to a type
of urea-formaldehyde plastic called ‘Beetle’, but it was not nearly
as resilient as the Americans wanted.
Watertown Manufacturing Company, a production facility in
Connecticut won the contract and introduced the Navy to the beauty
that is Melamine. The new plates and bowls not only weighed 80
percent less and took up 75 percent less shelf space than their
ceramic counterparts, but they were also nearly indestructible. By
1942, the Navy already had melamine on ships around the world and
with the price of the plastic plummeting, the military began to
look for other applications. Traditional nut, wood, and mother of
pearl buttons simply wouldn’t do in a modern war. In 1942, Emsig
Manufacturing Corporation, also of Connecticut, introduced the
melamine shirt button and soon melamine became the choice that was
cheaper, laundered better, and simply wouldn’t break. The majority
of the buttons on American uniforms from WWII onwards were made of
melamine.
You can tell a melamine button as they usually have a telltale seam
around the outside edge, “flash” excess plastic in the buttonholes,
or a knockout pin left from the button mold. If you want to go all
The Thing on it though, you can hold it to an open flame as a
melamine button will never catch fire.
