The identification of fibers is important to the textile industry, forensic science, fashion designers and historians among others. Identifying fibers involves observing the physical and chemical properties of the fiber for which there are a wide diversity of instruments available. This book provides a comprehensive review of fiber structure, the diversity of instruments available to identify fibers and applicications for a range of industries.

Part one reviews the main fibers, their structure and characteristics. Part two focuses on methods of fibre identification, ranging from microscopic to DNA analysis. The remainder of the book reviews specific applications, including how textiles are identified in forensic investigations.

Identification of textile fibers will be an important text for forensic scientists, police and lawyers who may be involved with the use of textile fibres to provide evidence in criminal cases. It will also be relevant for textile designers, technologists and inspectors wishing to assess fiber quality and understand fiber damage.

Edited by M M Houck, West Virginia University, USA
