Libri GmbH La Matrice Textile : Modélisation, Mesure et Atténuation de la Pollution par les Microfibres Textiles

Synthetic microfiber pollution represents one of the most pervasive environmental challenges of our time. In The Textile Matrix, Dr. Damon Rahimi Fard delivers an in-depth scientific analysis of synthetic polymer fragmentation, release pathways, and systemic mitigation strategies.Drawing on materials science, environmental forensics, and civil engineering, this monograph maps the full lifecycle of microfiber pollution-from pre-consumer manufacturing hotspots and domestic laundering mechanics to environmental fate, cellular toxicity, and advanced remediation technologies.Key Topics Covered: - - Transport & Fate: Aquatic dynamics, biofouling-mediated vertical flux, atmospheric dispersal, and indoor exposure pathways.- The Domestic Emission Engine: Two-phase kinetic models of fiber release, thermal plasticization, surfactant dynamics, and tumble-dryer aerosolization.- Somatic Infiltration & Toxicity: Particle translocation across biological barriers, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, lysosomal rupture, and "Trojan Horse" chemical vector effects.- Analytical Diagnostics: High-resolution vibrational spectroscopy (Micro-FTIR, Raman), thermal mass spectrometry (Pyr-GC-MS), and automated GEPARD pipelines with AI-driven taxonomy.- Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD): Yarn friction mechanics, low-shedding continuous filament architectures, next-generation biopolymers (PHAs, PLA, Lyocell), and bio-based surface coatings.- Circularity & Governance: Molecular depolymerization, Digital Product Passports (DPPs), Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) schemes, and global trade frameworks.An essential reference for environmental scientists, civil engineers, materials specialists, and policy strategists working toward zero-shedding textile systems.
