This book examines the physical testing of textiles in the form of fibre, yarn and fabric, the emphasis throughout eing on standard and reproducible tests. After an introductory explanation of sampling and measurement, the author explores the effects of moisture on textiles, then goes on to discuss fibre dimension, yarn tests for linear density, twist, evenness and hairiness, tensile strength, and dimensional stability and serviceability. Also covered are aspects of comfort and fabric handle, colour fastness and quality assurance. The book's comprehensive coverage of the physical properties of

3-D textile reinforced composite materials are obtained by applying highly productive textile technologies in the manufacture of fibre preforms. The damage tolerance and impact resistance are increased as the trend to delamination is drastically diminished. This is because of the existence of reinforcements in the thickness direction. This book describes the manufacturing processes, highlights the advantages, identifies the main applications, analyses the methods for prediction of mechanical properties and examines the key technical aspects of 3-D textile reinforced composite materials.
