Scientific principles of polymer fibre forming

← Previous Next →

Scientific principles of polymer fibre forming Fibres are very thin and at least 100 times their diameter. They are formed from longitudinally oriented macromolecules having a cross-section of at least hundreds of millions of polymer bonds. As a result, the strength of the chemical bond of the polymer is correspondingly multiplied, whereby the fibres become
