Description
Coedited by one of the world's leading authorities in the field and the late W.E. Morton, this classic book explores key aspects of fiber performance. Cementing its reputation as an invaluable reference, this fourth edition has been substantially reorganized and revised to reflect new research directions. After introductory chapters on fiber structure, testing, and sampling, the book reviews key fiber properties, their technical significance, factors affecting these properties, and measurement issues. It examines fineness, length, density, thermal properties, and reaction to moisture. The book also considers tensile properties, thermomechanical responses, and fiber breakage and fatigue. It concludes with discussions on dielectric properties, electrical resistance and static, optical properties, and fiber friction. Each chapter covers both natural and synthetic fibers, including high-performance fibers.

Description
First published in 1962, and now in its fourth edition, Physical properties of textile fibres has become a classic, providing the standard reference on key aspects of fibre performance. The new edition has been substantially reorganised and revised to reflect new research.
After introductory chapters on fibre structure, testing and sampling, the book reviews key fibre properties, their technical significance, factors affecting these properties and measurement issues. Each chapter covers both natural and synthetic fibres, including high-performance fibres. The book first reviews properties such as fineness, length and density. It then considers thermal properties and reaction to moisture. A further group of chapters then reviews tensile properties, thermo-mechanical responses, fibre breakage and fatigue. Finally, the book discusses dielectric properties, electrical resistance and static, optical properties and fibre friction.
Written by one of the world's leading authorities, the fourth edition of Physical properties of textile fibres consolidates its reputation as a standard work both for those working in the textile industry and those teaching and studying textile science.
