Abstract

This chapter contains a load of data for all relevant fibers gathered from a large number of different sources. Apart from the raw data for most natural and man-made fibers, it also contains a number of comparative diagrams for, e.g., fineness, strength and E-modulus, degree of polymerization and length of polymers, density, flammability, resistance to light, weather, acids, alkalis and microorganisms.
