Dr. Lewis reviews the theory, development and uses of high performance polymer fibres. He describes their manufacture, and compares the properties of different polymers. Applications of different materials are described, together with their advantages and limitations. His review is complemented by the addition of a fully indexed set of references and abstracts selected from the Polymer Library database. These provide further reading on the technology and uses of high performance polymers.
