Course Objectives		1. To examine the evolution, production and use of manufactured fibers. 2. To teach the structure and morphology of manufactured fibers and the development of these structures during different production methods. 3. To teach the post-processes applied to manufactured fibers. 4. To give information about the testing of polymers and manufactured fibers.
Course Description		Structural principles of polymeric fibers. Basic principles of fluid flow during spinning. Melt-spinning, solution-spinning. Nanofiber production. Drawing process and its influence on fiber structure and properties. Heat-setting of thermoplastic fibers. Characterization of polymers and fibers. Testing of fibers. Production of poly(ethylene terephthalate), nylon 6 and 66, acrylic, polypropylene and rayon fibers. Manufactured fibers for high performance, industrial and non-conventional applications.
Course Outcomes		At the end of the course, the students will have: i. Will have knowledge about the application areas of manufactured fibers, ii. Will have the knowledge to select the suitable fiber spinning method for a particular manufactured fiber and will be able to evaluate the structural and morphological formation of the fiber. iii. Will have knowledge about the tests applied to manufactured fibers, iv. Will have the ability to determine the post-processes for manufactured fibers and to understand the effects of these processes on fiber properties.
