Features: This Dictionary was compiled over a period of 9 years from its conception to the final draft, undergoing numerous processes such as word selection, naming, supplementation, review, revision, and editorial refinement by the publisher. It was indeed not an easy task. If its publication can provide some assistance to friends in the fiber and textile industry, as well as to professionals in foreign-related fields, we will undoubtedly feel great satisfaction and comfort. The content of this Dictionary covers upstream aspects such as natural fibers, chemical fibers, inorganic fibers, fiber raw materials, fibrous polymers, and petrochemical raw materials, as well as downstream aspects such as fiber production, processing, textiles, dyeing and finishing, sewing technology, and mechanical, instrumental, testing, and environmental technologies related to the fiber and textile industry. It also appropriately includes a small number of terms related to fiber trade. The total number of entries is approximately 60,000. This book highlights specialization and practicality, and expands the word selection as much as possible around the peripheral disciplines of the fiber and textile field. The naming of compounds in this Dictionary is based on the nomenclature principles promulgated by the Chinese Chemical Society, moderately reflecting customary usage and old terms to facilitate comparative reference. This book is the first published in China for fiber and textile-related fields as a bilingual Chinese-English language reference tool.
