The high-modulus, high-tenacity (HM-HT) fibres fall naturally into three groups - polymer fibres such as aramids and polyethylene fibres; carbon fibres such as Kevlar; and inorganic fibres based on glass and ceramic fibres.The books shows how high performance fibres are being increasingly used for a wide range of applications including goetextiles and geomembranes and for construction and civil engineering projects as wWoodhead Publishing Series in TextilesWoodhead Publishing Series in Textiles Chemical & Materials EngineeringHILCCEngineering & Applied SciencesHILCCMaterials ScienceHILCCChemical & Materials EngineeringEngineering & Applied SciencesMaterials Science677Hearle J.
