3 Chapter 6 Objective  SWBAT distinguish and identify different types of fibers.

4 Chapter 6 Agenda 1.Types of Fiber 2.Patterns of Fiber 3.Fiber Analysis Lab 4.Testing & Collection of Evidence 5.Atlanta Child Murders Documentary 6.Exit Slip

5 Chapter 6 Fibers  Class evidence  Have probative value  Common trace evidence  Can be characterized based on comparison of both physical and chemical properties

6 Chapter 6 Fabric  Fabric is made of fibers.  Fibers are made of twisted filaments.  Types of fibers and fabric  Natural—animal, vegetable or inorganic  Artificial—synthesized or created from altered natural sources

7 Chapter 6 Types of Fibers Synthetic  Rayon  Nylon  Acetate  Acrylic  Spandex  Polyester Natural  Silk  Cotton  Wool  Mohair  Cashmere

8 Chapter 6 Classification Natural fibers are classified according to their origin:  Vegetable or cellulose  Animal or protein  Mineral

9 Chapter 6 Cellulose Fibers Cotton—vegetable fiber; strong, tough, flexible, moisture absorbent, not shape retentive Rayon—chemically-altered cellulose; soft, lustrous, versatile Cellulose acetate— cellulose chemically- altered to create an entirely new compound not found in nature.

10 Chapter 6 Fiber Comparison Can you tell the difference(s) between the cotton on the left and the rayon on the right?

11 Chapter 6 Protein Fibers  Wool—animal fiber coming most often from sheep, but may be goat (mohair), rabbit (angora), camel, alpaca, llama, vicuna  Silk—insect fiber that is spun by a silk worm to make its cocoon; fiber reflects light and has insulating properties

12 Chapter 6 Mineral Fibers  Asbestos—a natural fiber that has been used in fire-resistant substances  Rock wool—a manufactured mineral fiber  Fiberglass—a manufactured inorganic fiber

13 Chapter 6 Synthetic Fibers ( Made from derivatives of petroleum, coal and natural gas)  Nylon—most durable of man-made fibers; extremely light weight  Polyester—most widely used man- made fiber  Acrylic—provides warmth from a lightweight, soft and resilient fiber  Spandex—extreme elastic properties

14 Chapter 6 Weave Terminology  Yarn—a continuous strand of fibers or filaments, either twisted or not  Warp—lengthwise yarn  Weft—crosswise yarn  Blend—a fabric made up of two or more different types of fiber.

15 Chapter 6 Weave Patterns

16 Chapter 6 Knitted Fabric  Made by interlocking loops into a specific arrangement  One continuous thread or a combination

17 Chapter 6 Polymers  Synthetic fibers are made of polymers  Long chains of repeating chemical units  Repeating units are called monomers.  Polymers are created that have different properties by varying:  the chemical structure of the monomers  the way they are joined together

18 Chapter 6 Filament Cross-Sections Synthetic fibers are forced out of a nozzle when they are hot, and then they are woven. The holes of the nozzle are not necessarily round; therefore, the fiber filament may have a unique shape in cross-section.

19 Chapter 6 Fiber Analysis Lab

20 Chapter 6 Testing for Identification  Microscopic observation  Burning—observation of how a fiber burns, the odor, color of flame, smoke and the appearance of the residue  Thermal decomposition—gently heating to break down the fiber to the basic monomers  Chemical tests—solubility and decomposition

21 Chapter 6 Testing for Identification  Density—mass of object divided by the volume of the object  Refractive Index—measuring the bending of light as it passes from air into a solid or liquid  Fluorescence—used for comparing fibers as well as spotting fibers for collection

22 Chapter 6 Dyes  Components can be separated and matched to an unknown.  More than 7000 different dye formulations  Chromatography  The way a fabric accepts a particular dye may also be used to identify and compare samples.

23 Chapter 6 Identification and Comparison of Fibers  Fourier Transform Infrared analysis (FTIR)— based on selective absorption of wavelengths of light  Optical microscopy—uses polarizing light and comparison microscopes  Pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (PGC-MS)—burns a sample under controlled conditions, separates and analyzes each combustion product

24 Chapter 6 Collection of Fiber Evidence  Bag clothing items individually in paper bags. Make sure that different items are not placed on the same surface before being bagged.  Make tape lifts of exposed skin areas of bodies and any inanimate objects  Removed fibers should be folded into a small sheet of paper and stored in a paper bag.

25 Chapter 6 Fiber Evidence  Used to connect the suspect to the victim or to the crime scene  In the case of Wayne Williams, fibers weighed heavily on the outcome of the case. Williams was convicted in 1982 based on carpet fibers that were found in his home, car and on several murder victims.

26 Chapter 6 Atlanta Child Murders Documentary 18. How many male victims were there? 19. How did Wayne Williams do on the polygraph test? 20. What is measured in a polygraph test? 21. What was the case against Wayne Williams built on? 22. How many murders was Wayne Williams tried on? 23. What was the shape of the fibers on the carpet/green fibers? 24. What fibers were caught to the victim’s shorts and how was this relevant to Wayne Williams? 25. What other fibers were found with Wayne Williams and his victims?

27 Chapter 6 Homework Hair & Fiber Analysis Pre-Lab due Wednesday

28 Chapter 6 Exit Slip September 23, 2014 1. Get out a mobile device or use one of the computers and go to m.socrative.com. You can also use one of the iPads that has the Socrative app. 2. When prompted, enter 417101 for the room number. QUESTION: What are different types of fiber?
