Surface Modification and Coating of Fibers, Polymers, and Composites is written by Sanjay Mavinkere Rangappa and published by Elsevier. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0443220301 (ISBN 10) and 9780443220302 (ISBN 13).

Surface Modification and Coating of Fibers, Polymers, and Composites: Techniques, Properties, and Applications outlines techniques, concepts, characterization, and applications of surface modification for fibers, polymers, and coated fiber-reinforced composites allowing for precision engineering of the mechanical and thermal properties, electrical conductivity, and chemical resistance of these materials. A broad range of fiber types are covered and the book highlights how surface modification enhances the durability and sustainability of them.The book starts with chapters that discuss surface modification techniques for a range of different fibers and composites, including animal-based, mineral, leaf-based, root-based, and more. The next section of the book covers surface coating techniques as well as morphology, characterization, and computational modeling of surface-coated materials, and the book concludes with a section that outlines the properties and applications of coated fiber composites. - Outlines techniques, concepts, characterization, and applications of surface modification of fibers, polymers, and coated fiber-reinforced composites - Techniques provided allow for precision tailoring of the mechanical and thermal properties, electrical conductivity, and chemical resistance of natural and synthetic fibers - Highlights the sustainability features of surface modification of these materials - Covers a variety of fiber types including synthetic, biofibers, MXene, and graphene-based
