Abstract
This work deals with the heat treatment of fibers and nonoriented specimens made of the thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer Vectra A900 in the light of tensile properties and DSC measurements. In calorimetric measurements, there seem to be some differences in the effects of the treatment between macroscopically isotropic (nonoriented) and highly oriented fiber specimens. Nonisothermal treatments also produce some effects on the tensile properties, which may be attributable to the thermal history of samples. Under the conditions of this study, a multistep treatment, ending at a final stage where the temperature was higher than the original melting point of the polymer, did not cause any acceleration in the rate at which tensile properties increase. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

## Abstract A Xe excilamp (λ = 172 nm) was applied to photo irradiate and surface modify wool fibers. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the outer surface of the fibers was etched after excilamp treatment, and some microcracks emerged on the surface scales. X‐ray photoelectron spect
Conductivities of composites filled with different carbon fibers having different heat treatment temperatures (HTT) have been studied. It is shown that conductivity realization coefficient decreases with the increase of HTT.
