The document discusses technical textile fibers. It describes how atoms make up molecules and chemical compounds, with carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulfur, and silicon being important atoms in fiber materials. It defines technical fibers as those used for technical purposes and notes they are often synthetic. Technical fibers are used to make value-added products and some common fiber types include natural, viscose rayon, polyamide, polyester, and polyolefins. High performance fibers have characteristics like strength, durability, and resistance to heat, chemicals, fatigue and more. Examples of high performance fibers discussed include aramid, carbon, glass and rubber fibers.

constructed out of about 118 basic chemical elements. The smallest individual component in chemistry is the atom. Atoms build up a molecule and molecules build up the basic building blocks of chemical compounds. The most important atoms in fiber-forming materials are Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), Nitrogen (N), Sulphur (S) and Silicon (Si).

Technical Fibers Technical fibers are the fibers which are used in technical purpose. It is the emergence of the so- called high performance fibers that has provided some evolution of technical textiles. Most of the technical fibers are synthetic fibers. Many of them have been modified and tailored to highly specific end-uses by adjustment of their tenacity, length, fineness, surface profile, finish and even by their combination into hybrid and bicomponent products. Prof. Dr. Abu Bakr Siddique, Dean FATE BUFT 3 Technical Fibers Technical fibers are used for value added products like auto, ship, airbus and other valuable technical textiles. Different fibers which are used in making technical textiles are as follows: •Natural Fibers. •Viscose rayon •Polyamide and Polyester. •Polyolefins •High performance fibers Prof. Dr. Abu Bakr Siddique, Dean FATE BUFT 4 Characteristics of HP Fibers • High strength and high modulus • High chemical- and combustion-resistant • Good conductivity of heat and electricity. • Withstand from fatigue & deterioration • Resistance from wear, tears, and plastic deformation. • High work of rapture • High dimensional stability • Good vibration damping • Low density • Low heat expansion • Low Flammability • Ballistic, water, weather, wind • insulation, Prof. Dr. Abu Bakr Siddique, Dean FATE BUFT 5 Classification of high performance fibers. • Aramid fiber o Meta-Aramid (m-AR) o Para-Aramid (p-AR) o Copolymer from para aramid (cp-AR) • Carbon fiber • Isotrope fiber (Pech) • Ansotrope fiber (PAN) • Glass fiber A to S Class glass fibers according end uses • Poly propylene and High density polypropylene (HDPP) • Ceramic fiber • Metal fiber Prof. Dr. Abu Bakr Siddique, Dean FATE BUFT 6 Classification of high performance fibers.

What is bi/multi-component fiber
Bi-component: Bi-component fiber is comprised of two or
more polymers of different chemical and / or physical properties extruded from the same spinneret with both/all polymers within the same filament.
Prof. Dr. Abu Bakr Siddique, Dean FATE BUFT 11
Uses of bi/multi-component fiber • Different melting points on the sides of the fiber are taken advantage of when fibers are used as bonding fibers in thermally bonded non-woven webs. • Side-by-side fibers are generally used as self- crimping fibers • Fibers are widely used as bonding fibers in Nonwoven industry. • The fine fibers produced by this method are used in synthetic leather, specialty wipes, ultra-high filtration media, artificial arteries and many other specialized applications. Prof. Dr. Abu Bakr Siddique, Dean FATE BUFT 12 Aramid fibers Aramid fibers are a class of heat-resistant, ballistic proof and strong synthetic fibers. The name is a portmanteau of "aromatic polyamide".
Uses of these fibers are: Aramid fiber
•Aerospace and military applications •Bullet proof jacket •Heat-resistant fire fighting clothing •Tires •Composites. Prof. Dr. Abu Bakr Siddique, Dean FATE BUFT 13 Structure of para Aramid fiber.
