This volume provides the basic chemical and mathematical theory needed to understand and modify the connections among the structure, formation and properties of many different types of manmade and natural fibers. At a fundamental level it explains how polymeric and non-polymeric fibers are organized, how such fibers are formed, both synthetically and biologically, and how primary and secondary properties, from basic flow to thermal and electrical qualities, are derived from molecular and submolecular organization, thus ...

This volume provides the basic chemical and mathematical theory needed to understand and modify the connections among the structure, formation and properties of many different types of manmade and natural fibers. At a fundamental level it explains how polymeric and non-polymeric fibers are organized, how such fibers are formed, both synthetically and biologically, and how primary and secondary properties, from basic flow to thermal and electrical qualities, are derived from molecular and submolecular organization, thus establishing the quantitative and predictive relationships needed for fiber engineering. Technologies in this text apply to the analysis and design of fibers for industrial, electronic, optical, medical and energy storage applications. Some of the highlights of the book include: connects fiber chemistry and structure to properties that can be designed and engineered; micro- and nanoscale, synthetic and natural polymer and non-polymer fibers explained with applications to industrial, electronic, biomedical and energy; and, information pertinent for fiber, textile, composite, polymer and materials specialists.Chapters include: Chemical Structure of Synthetic Polymer Fibers; Physical Structure of Synthetic Polymer Fibers; Chemical Structure of Natural Polymer Fibers; Physical Structure of Natural Polymer Fibers; Structure of Non-Polymer Fibers; Structure of Nanofibers; Mechanical Properties of Fibers; Viscoelastic Properties of Fibers; and, Thermal Properties of Fibers.
