“…Synthetic fibers, once thought to be homogeneous, have been recognized as being composed of primary and secondary structures (31,98,229,400). There are also wide varieties of chemically modified physically treated, delicately coated and intimately coordinated fibers (55,56,57,118,390,391,433,515). When chese complexities are added to those of integration and fabrication, it becomes evident that an investigator must analyze his problem and plan his microscopical research with due regard to the number and relationship of molecular associations present, using a classification scheme such as that proposed by Rochow (387,388,389).…”
