Put together for those involved in fiber-related research, product design, and production, this two-volume set distills information on fibers and their design, characterization, production, finishing, and functionalization, as well as ecological, toxicological, and recycling aspects, from the 40-volume Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. The volumes cover theory and mechanisms; structure modeling and physical properties; fiber formation and crystallization; general production technology; processing; dyes and dyeing; textile technologies; additives, auxiliaries, and finishing agents; testing and analysis; economic considerations; natural and man-made fibers; fiber optics; and high performance functional fibers. The volumes are illustrated with black and white photographs and drawings. ISBN 978-3-527-31772-1 is also attached to an older book: Chemically modified carbon fibers and their applications (1989).
