Technical Organic and Inorganic Fibres from Natural Resources

About this book

Technical Organic and Inorganic Fibres from Natural Resources focuses on recent advances in the synthesis, processing, characterization, and application of non-textile fibers. The book provides a general introduction to the uses of natural fibers in technical textile applications while also reviewing the latest technical methods for producing these high-performance materials. As the textile industry is focused on finding alternative green fibers with the aim of providing high quality products which are fully recyclable and biodegradable, natural fibers from renewable sources play an increasingly important role in the industry due to their unique properties and functionality. - Covers the full range of fibers from natural sources, including organic materials like chitosan as well as inorganic ones like carbon nanofibers - Includes an overview of EPA regulations on hazardous natural fibers - Industry case studies are provided throughout to explain production methods and applications
