Abstract
Characterization of manufactured fibres is an integral part of the fibre production process, as every manufacturing unit has to ensure that its products are as per the specifications. Though fibre characterization has significant areas of commonality with polymer characterization, the emphasis is often different, necessitating adaptation of the techniques to meet specific needs and sometimes the use of special techniques. However, fibre characterization has received relatively less attention than polymer characterization [1–3].
