Description
Book SynopsisKeratin fibers, particularly wool fibers, constitute an important natural raw material in the textile field due to its comfort and thermal proprieties. Filling a gap in the literature, this book covers all general topics related to the dyeing and printing of wool, wool blends, and other keratin fibers.
Trade Review“If you know 'Wool Dyeing' and have appreciated it, this is a valuable and thorough replacement. If you do not, this book will tell you everything you need to know and more about The Coloration of Wool and other Keratin Fibers.” (AATCC Review, 2014)
“This groundbreaking and innovative book is highly recommended for all who have interests in the collaboration of wool and human hair.” (International Dyer, 1 March 2014)
