Abstract
The magnitude of the thermally-induced changes In the crystallinity, w eight, tensile strength, and surface damages in Kevlar 49 fibres is co ntrolled by the duration of each and individual thermal exposure, Delt a t(T). Several short exposures cause less damage to the fibre than a single long exposure. This observation is user-relevant.
