Formerly CIP. Uk Includes bibliographical references and index. The scope of textile fibres -- Cellulosic fibres -- Protein fibres -- Regenerated fibres -- Synthetic fibres -- High-performance fibres -- Other specialty fibres -- Enhancement of fibre performance by surface modification -- Fibre blends in textile fabrics. Discussing the chemistry of textile fibres aimed at A level students and first year undergraduates, this title explains the characteristics required for polymers to be fibre-forming, the general physical properties needed from textile fibres, and the chemistry of important natural and synthetic fibres. |
