The use of spectroscopy for textile fiber identification 

 -  Identification of Textile Fibers, January, p.158-164, 2009 .
<br/><br/> The use of spectroscopy for fiber analysis is widespread and ranges from simple identification of polymer type(s)to structural information. Colorants used on textiles, be they dyes or pigments, are also the subject of spectroscopic analysis. Of necessity, the spectroscopy of fibers and related materials is a broad and complicated topic. This chapter will be limited, therefore, to basic concepts, applications, and future improvements in some of the spectroscopic analysis of textile fibers. © 2009 Woodhead Publishing Limited.
