Woodhead Publishing Smart Textiles Multidisciplinary Know-How

Developing smart textiles requires a deep understanding of many different scientific fields. This book from the Woodhead Publishing Series in Textiles provides the essential knowledge needed to create unique materials with enhanced properties. Because smart textile development involves disciplines outside of traditional textile manufacturing, researchers often face challenges with different technical languages and specific terminology. This resource acts as a bridge between these diverse areas of expertise. It provides a filtered look at various fields, explaining key expressions and showing how they apply directly to smart textile development. By understanding how these different disciplines connect, developers can better navigate the complex processes involved in constructing advanced materials. The text helps translate specialized terms into practical knowledge for the textile field, making it a valuable resource for those working with polymers, plastics, and advanced material science.
