Handbook of Textile Fibre Structure, Volume 2: Natural, Regenerated, Inorganic, and Specialist Fibres (Woodhead Publishing in Textiles) - Hardcover
Synopsis
Edited by leading authorities on the subject and with a team of international authors, this authoritative collection provides a comprehensive review of the structure of an extensive range of textile fibers. The book 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. It 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.
