Azimuthal Scattering from Elliptical Hair Fibers
ACM Transactions on Graphics, 2017The appearance of hair follows from the small-scale geometry of hair fibers, with the cross-sectional shape determining the azimuthal distribution of scattered light. Although previous research has described some of the effects of non-circular cross sections, no accurate scattering models for non-circular fibers exist.

Although most animals contain hairs on their skin, limited studies have been conducted on understanding the structure and properties of animal hairs except for wool from different types of sheep. Zhang et al. had studied the structural characteristics of rabbit hair and found that the hair fibers had average diameters which varied between 10 and 20 μm ...

Viscoelastic properties of α-keratin fibers in hair
Acta Biomaterialia, 2017Considerable viscoelasticity and strain-rate sensitivity are a characteristic of α-keratin fibers, which can be considered a biopolymer. The understanding of viscoelasticity is an important part of the knowledge of the overall mechanical properties of these biological materials.

Tensile properties of twisted hair fibers
International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2005Hair is routinely twisted during grooming processes, which can cause tangles and lead to breakage of hair fibers. To evaluate the damage caused by twisting hair, the tensile stress–strain properties of single twisted hair fibers were measured by two different experimental procedures: (A) twist at constant length, followed by extension to break (without

Luxury Hair Fibers for Fashion Industry
2016The fashion industry has been captivated by natural fibers, particularly animal hair fibers due to their specific characteristics—such as fineness, warmth, suppleness, visual appearance, and finally mystique—since ancient times. Animal hair fibers protect the animal from extreme weather particularly at high altitude/low temperature, and thus generally ...

Interactions between Crossed Hair Fibers at the Nanoscale
Langmuir, 2010The atomic force microscope fiber probe is used to directly measure the forces and friction between two human hairs under various conditions. It is shown that the forces between the hair fibers in solution can be well explained by a DLVO interaction and that cationic surfactant modifies the interactions in a manner entirely consistent with current ...

Studies of light scattering from ethnic hair fibers
International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2004One of the most desirable hair attributes to consumers, irrespective of ethnic background, is hair shine. The light reflected from a fiber has two components, specular and diffuse. The specular fraction of reflected light from the front surface of the fiber is generally recognized as a contributor to high luster.

The Physical Properties of Hair Fibers
2011This chapter describes tensile, bending and torsional testing including different parameters of each of these deformations and how these are affected by different types of hair including different types of hair damage. Expanded data sets are included for elastic moduli and other parameters of these deformations.
