Nanofinishing of Textile Materials
Nanofinishing of Textile Materials provides thorough coverage of existing, current and future developments in the field. Sections cover a wide range of nanofinishing mechanisms for improving the fundamental properties of textiles, such as bleaching, scouring, softening and surface activation. Other sections discuss high-performance properties and conventional attributes, such as waterproofing, fire-retardancy and novel applications, including conductivity and magnetism. With two highly regarded and experienced authors bringing together the latest information on nanofinishing technology, this book is essential reading for scientific researchers, engineers and R&D professionals working on the development of finishes for improving the properties of textiles. Explains nanofinishing mechanisms and processes with a view to their use in developing high-performance apparel and technical textiles Focuses on how nanofinishing can be used to confer important characteristics, such as self-cleaning, hydrophobic, hydrophilic, magnetic and conductive attributes Explores novel techniques and methods for readers who require cutting-edge knowledge of developments in nanofinishing
The Wool Handbook
The Wool Handbook: Morphology, Structure, Property and Applications explores the fundamental aspects of wool fibers as well as traditional and novel applications of wool in areas including polymer composites and technical textiles. Apart from textiles and garments, wool has long been used for various diversified applications due to its unique material properties. Wool is inherently fire resistant, antimicrobial, flexible and antibacterial, and as a natural material, it can be used to create environmentally sustainable products. This book explains basic and advanced topics related to wool fibers, from shearing to marketing, drawing on academic and industrial research from a range of subjects. Providing statistics, processing methods, and testing and characterization techniques for wool fiber, this book will help readers to use wool fibers to find new applications and solutions. Provides advanced testing methods to explore the material characteristics of wool Includes the latest industrial methods for physical and chemical processing of wool Presents case studies on how wool fibers have been made into successful bio-based composite and textile products

Thermal Analysis of Textiles and Fibers
Thermal Analysis of Textiles and Fibers offers systematic and comprehensive coverage of the subject, from the principles of fiber structure and established TA methods, to advanced TA techniques and their application to high-performance fibers and textiles. Thermal analysis is a convenient method for assessing fiber and fabric performance as monitored under end-use relevant conditions. Expertise in this field requires knowledge of both TA methods and of fiber behavior, information that is brought together in this new volume. In recent years, thermal analysis has been applied to a variety of novel and high-performance fibers, such as Kevlar, Vectran, PBI, polyolefins, polypropylene, PAN and PV...

Die Musikkultur im Iran seit der Islamischen Revolution
Majid Montazer untersucht, wie die aktuelle Kulturpolitik im theokratischen Iran ausgeübt wird. Aus Sicht der iranischen Regierung hat die Scharia in allen gesellschaftlichen Belangen den höchsten Stellenwert; Musik steht seit der Revolution unter dem latenten Verdacht, von Gott und von einem gottgefälligen Leben abzulenken. Der Autor schildert, wie die Musikkultur unter solchen Vorzeichen überleben kann. Für seine detaillierte Analyse der Arbeitsbedingungen von Musikschaffenden im Iran wählt er Künstler aus, die von staatlichen iranischen Stellen gefördert werden und solche, die aus den verschiedensten Gründen vom staatlichen Berufsverbot betroffen sind. Ziel ist es, die seit der Islamischen Revolution veränderten Freiräume für Musikschaffende möglichst umfassend und konkret abzubilden.
