  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Fibrous and Textile Materials for Composite Applications

Part of the book series: Textile Science and Clothing Technology ((TSCT))

Abstract

This chapter presents an overview of different types of composite reinforcements (fibres, textiles, nanofibres, nanotubes, particles, etc.) with special properties like piezoresistivity, self-sensing property, self-healing capability, conductivity, electromagnetic shielding, heat generation, and so on. The properties of reinforced polymers and composites have also been discussed in detail. Additionally, fundamental aspects behind these special properties are also presented in this chapter. The last section of this chapter is dedicated to novel multi-scale reinforcements and composite materials, and their properties.
