FIBER STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES.

Abstract

13 papers were presented at this symposium and are contained in this volume. The main subjects covered in these papers include: elongational rheology of polyethylene terephthlate; elongation flow of polymer melts; fractural properties of star polystyrenes; extrusion instabilty with reference to fibrous crystallization; extrusion temperature on the properties of ultra drawn polyethylene; structure development in fiber formation from aliphatic polyamides and polypeptides; liquid crystals with applications to tensile-strength fibers structure and morphology of amine-treated polyethylene terephthlate filaments; mechanics of draw texturing; shape of collapsed twist-textured fibers; analysis of crimp in bicomponent filament sets; and shear behavior of cotton-polyester-blend fabrics. All papers were indexed separately.
