Description XXII, 1040 p. 1265 illus., 698 illus. in color : online resource Abstract Note This textbook covers the production of all relevant natural and man-made fibers, their inner structure, properties, applications, markets and historic development. More than 1,600 photos, maps and sketches complement the text. The properties of important fibers are compared in a large number of tables and graphics to simplify selecting an appropriate fiber for a given application. The Content: Natural fibers: History, production, properties, applications, markets. Chemical fibers: History, production processes, components and machines for the manufacturing of cellulosic and synthetic fibers, properties, applications, markets. Special topics: Metal fibers, carbon nanotubes, biopolymers, optical fibers, high-performance fibers, fiber testing etc. Target Group: Students in textile and clothing technology in all course programs Experts in the textile and clothing industry and fiber and textile research. The Author: Dieter Veit has studied mechanical engineering with a major in textiles at RWTH Aachen University. After completing his Dr.-Ing., he worked in man-made fiber plant engineering and since 2001 he has been giving lectures on natural and man-made fibers at RWTH Aachen University. He authored and edited several books on textile technology and artificial intelligence. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation ISBN,Price 9783031153099 Keyword(s) 1.
