This book provides an invaluable single source of information on the advancesin fibre spinning technologies. These advanced spinning systems often produceyarns and finished products with improved properties and quality, in comparison to conventional systems. Part one provides an introduction to textile fibrespinning and yarn structure. Chapters discuss the principles of ring spinningand open-end spinning of textile fibres. Yarn structure and properties from different spinning techniques and yarn structural requirements for knitted and woven fabrics are also examined. Part two covers advances in particular textile fibre spinning technologies. Topics range from siro spinning of textile fibres to compact spinning technology and air-jet spinning of textile fibres. Final chapters explore how to minimise fibre damage caused by spinning and the useof spin finishes for textiles. With its distinguished editor and array of international contributors, Advances in textile fibre spinning technology will bean important text for spinners, yarn manufacturers and garment manufacturers,as well as researchers, technicians, engineers and technologists in the textile industry. Carl Lawrence is a Professor of Textile Engineering at the University of Leeds. He has 12 years industrial experience, in materials research. To date, he has published numerous scientific papers and book chapters dealing with yarn and fabric formation. His research interests include fibre processing, in particular unconventional spinning methods with wider interests including fibres, yarns and technical textile fabric engineering. He is a member of the Management Board of the Technitex Faraday partnership and a member of the Techtextil Scientific Committee of Messe Frankfurt.
