Description

Polyolefins are one of the most widely used commercial polymers. This book reviews the most important polyolefins, including polyethylene and polypropylene. These versatile fibres are durable, chemically resistant, lightweight, economical and functional. This comprehensive review discusses the different types of polyolefins, their structural and chemical properties as well as the production of polyolefins. The second group of chapters examine how to improve the functionality of polyolefin fibres. A final group of chapters addresses how polyolefins can be incorporated into specific applications, such as industrial, medical and automotive products. Written by a distinguished team of international authors, this is an essential reference for textile technologists, yarn and fabric manufacturers and fibre scientists. Key Features: reviews the most important polyolefins including polyethylene and polyproplene, their structural and chemical properties as well as production methods; examines methods to improve the functionality of polyolefin fibres including production methods and quality control. Contents: Part 1 Properties and applications of polyolefin fibres: Types of polyolefin fibres; The structural and chemical properties of polyolefin fibres; The structural mechanics of polyolefin fibrous materials and nanocomposites; Automotive components composed of polyolefins; The use of polyolefins in industrial and medical applications; Advances in polyolefin-based fibers for hygienic and medical applications. Part 2 Improving the functionality of polyolefins: Production methods for polyolefin fibres; Enhancing hygiene/antimicrobial properties of polyolefins; Improving the use of polyolefins in nonwovens; Testing and quality control of polyolefins; Polyolefin nanocomposite fibres and films; Improving the colouration/dyeability of polyolefin fibres.
