Initially written to pull together scattered literature in polymer
science and textile technology, the first edition of Coated
Textiles: Principles and Applications became a gold standard
resource in this field. Completely revised and updated, this second
edition reflects not only the latest developments in the field, but
also explores future possibilities. The book covers the materials
used in coatings and their chemistry, textile substrates, coating
methods, properties of fabrics after coating, rheology of coating,
applications of coated fabrics, and test methods in chronological
order. New topics in the Second Edition: * Coating with
stimuli-sensitive polymers and intelligent textiles * Nanomaterial
coating to produce soil-resistant fabrics * Breathable coating for
health care garments * Adhesives and foam for laminates * Research
trends such as temperature-adaptable fabrics, silicone coating for
airbag fabrics, healthcare garments, intumescent coating, coating
materials, and coating methods The author provides a detailed
discussion that includes diverse applications of coated fabrics,
rheology, smart coating, physical properties of coated fabrics, as
well as the underlying principles of test methods. The book
includes applications and explores coating with functional
materials such as dyes, fragrances, phase change materials, smart
polymers and nanomaterials for special applications. With
applications in defense, transportation, healthcare, architecture,
space, sports, environmental pollution control, and other diverse
end-product uses, coated textiles is a multibillion dollar
industry. Following in the footsteps of its bestselling
predecessor, the second edition compiles information from various
sources into one convenient, easily accessible resource.
