Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

Edited by leading authorities on the subject and with a team of international authors, this authoritative two-volume collection provides a comprehensive review of the structure of an extensive range of textile fibers.

Volume Two begins with an introductory set of chapters on fiber structure and methods to characterize fibers. It then reviews the structure of natural cellulosic and protein fibers, including cotton, silk and wool and also covers the structure of manufactured polymer fibers- for example polyester, polyamides, elastomeric fibers and high-modulus, high-tenacity polymer fibers. The book concludes with a discussion of the structure of a variety of other textile fibers such as glass, carbon and optical fibers.
