Lecturing and Reflections on the Fiber Heats of Sorption Part I

For the topics in the course of teaching "textile materials" about heat of sorption phenomenon, with reference to several available domestic versions of "Textile Materials" textbooks, "Textile Physics" textbook as well as the "Physical Properties of Textile Fibers" textbook edited by W. E. Morton, J. W. S. Hearle in regard to knowledge on the phenomenon of fiber heats of sorption. the definitions of differential heat of sorption and integral heat of sorption. and the relationship between the two indexes, the effect of fiber moisture regain on heat sorption, were elucidated. This would provide students with a fundamental understanding of the mechanism of fiber sorption heats and the effect of heat release. A number of recommendations of future class lecturing on this part are put forward.
