Description

This book provides a review of how textile fibres can be identified, both in the context of forensic science and within the textile industry. This is an important text for forensic scientists, police and lawyers who may be involved with the use of textile fibres to provide evidence in criminal cases. It will also be relevant for textile designers, technologists and inspectors wishing to understand about fibre damage. Part 1 reviews the main fibres, their structure and characteristics. Part 2 focuses on the methods of fibre identification, ranging from microscopic to DNA analysis. The remainder of the book reviews specific applications, including how textiles are identified in forensic investigations and identifying fibre damage within the textile industry. Key Features: provides a comprehensive review of the main types of fibre together with their structure, characteristics and identification; assesses methods of fibre identification from optical microscopy to DNA analysis as well as instruments available to identify fibres. Contents: Part 1 Textile fiber structure and characteristics: Introduction to textile fiber identification; Ways of identifying textile fibres and materials; Natural animal textile fibres: structure, characteristics and identification; Synthetic textile fibres: structure, characteristics and identification; High performance fibres: structure, characteristics and identification; The use of classification systems and production methods in identifying manufactured textile fibers. Part 2 Methods of fiber identification: Optical microscopy for textile fibre identification; The use of spectroscopy for FP textile fibre identification; Microspectrophotometry for textile fiber colour measurement; Alternative and specialised textile fibre identification tests; Analysis of dyes using chromatography; DNA analysis in the identification of animal fibres in textiles. Part 3 Applications: Identifying plant fibers in textiles: the case of cotton; The forensic identification of textile fibers; Identifying and analysing of textile damage in the textile industry; The role of fibre identification in textile conservation.
