Inhaltsangabe

F. T. Wallenberger This book serves as an introduction to advanced inorganic fibers and aims to support fundamental research, assist applied scientists and designers in industry, and facilitate materials science instruction in universities and colleges. Its three main sections deal with fibers which are derived from the vapor phase such as single crystal silicon whiskers or carbon nanotubes, from the liquid phase such as advanced glass and single crystal oxide fibers, and from solid precursor fibers such as carbon and ceramic fibers. Contents FIBERS FROM THE VAPOR, LIQUID AND SOLID PHASE 1.1 The most important phase isthe liquid phase 1.2 Afiber by any name isstill afiber 1.3 Biographic sketches ofthe authors 1.4 Acknowledgments CHAPTER 1 FIBERS FROM THE VAPOR, LIQUID AND SOLID PHASE F. T. Wallenberger The book describes advanced inorganic fibers, focuses on principles and concepts, analyzes experimental and commercial processes, and relates process variables to structures, structures tofiber properties and fiber properties to end-use performance. In principle, there are discontinuous or inherently short, and continuous or potentially endless, fibers. Short fibers range from asbestos fibers, which were described as early as 300 BC to carbon nanotubes which were discovered in 1991 [1] and have been fully described in 1999 [2].

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dr. Wallenberger completed his undergraduate studies in Chemistry at the University in Graz, Austria (1954) and pursued graduate research at Fordham University in New York, where he received his M.S. degree (1956) in pilot process research and his Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry (1958) in the chemistry of polycyclic aromatic carbon precursors. He was an Instructor in Chemistry at Fordham (1957-58) and a Research Fellow at Harvard (1958-59). He joined Du Pont Fibers, Pioneering Research Laboratory, in 1959, where he studied, for more than three decades, the relationships between structures, properties and value-in-use of new materials, and contributed to the commercialization of new fibers, polymers and composites through intrapreneurial research, project management and technology transfer. Dr. Wallenberger retired from DuPont in 1992, became a Research Professor (Materials Science) at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign in 1992, a Visiting Professor (Textiles) at the University of California in Davis in 1994. He joined PPG in Pittsburgh as Staff Scientist in 1995.
Among many professional honors, Dr. Wallenberger received the Environmental Respect Award from Du Pont. He is a Fellow of the American Ceramic Society, and a member of the American Chemical Society, the Material Research Society, and the Association of Harvard Chemists.
