This is the first book to cover - in a wealth of detail - all types of synthetic fibres used in composites. Synthetic fibre reinforced composites are at the centre of a revolution in materials science: the concept of combining two or more different materials to obtain new and remarkable properties seems destined to become the central issue. Fibre reinforced materials have properties which are unattainable with conventional materials. Materials in all classes of solids can now be reinforced with fine fibres and improvements ...

This is the first book to cover - in a wealth of detail - all types of synthetic fibres used in composites. Synthetic fibre reinforced composites are at the centre of a revolution in materials science: the concept of combining two or more different materials to obtain new and remarkable properties seems destined to become the central issue. Fibre reinforced materials have properties which are unattainable with conventional materials. Materials in all classes of solids can now be reinforced with fine fibres and improvements in strength, tenacity, fatigue and other properties obtained. This new book covers the whole range of synthetic fibres used in composites. It explains their development and manufacture as well as giving detailed information on properties and how these are determined by their microstructure. Specialists from all over the world have written chapters on each type of fibre. Two chapters present the latest knowledge on carbon fibre manufacture from both PAN and pitch, surface treatment and microstructure viewpoints.
