Functional and Technical Textiles covers recent advances in technology, properties and performance of high-tech yarns and structures and their applications in different sectors of the smart and technical textile fields. Applications, including many that go beyond apparel, where high tech and functional structural fabrics are used as reinforcements for composites, medical implants and geotextiles are covered. The book also describes the latest technologies for producing versatile products for these diversified applications. Finally, the book makes a survey of the latest research in technical textiles and its various structures, properties and applications in composites, medical textiles, geotextiles, industrial textiles, and more.
