Man-made fibres made of different polymers, especially from high temperature polymers, can be used for high tech materials like textiles for clothing and for high performance applications as well as for reinforced materials. Especially the development of high performance fibres requires special equipment and know-how.
The department “man-made fibres” of a German university possesses this equipment and know-how to develop functional fibres, reinforcing fibres and new technologies regarding fibre formation, analytics and processing.
