Basic principles of fluid flow during fibre spinning

  • Chapter
Manufactured Fibre Technology

Abstract

The inspiration and the knowledge needed to develop the spinning techniques used for fibre manufacture were provided by the spider and the silkworm. These creatures showed that the following steps were required for extruding thin continuous filaments: (1) acquisition of spinnable liquid, (2) jet formation, and (3) jet hardening. Add to this bobbin winding, and we get manufactured fibres in the spun state. The manufactured fibres may need further drawing so that they have adequate properties.
