Book Description
The action of friction in fibers and textiles plays a major role in product
performance, from the generation of the fiber to the various ways a garment
responds to wear. This book addresses both the beneficial and detrimental
processes of friction with chapters on fiber structure, the sources of friction,
measurement techniques, static electrification, shrink proofing and felting,
surface modification treatments, effects of friction on synthetic and natural
fibers and fabrics, and the role friction plays in textile processing. It also
covers the structure and morphology of fibers and includes a historical
perspective and future outlook of these studies.
