HYPOTHESIS Thermal through-air bonding process and slip additive treatment affect fibre surface structure and nanomechanical properties, which is extremely difficult to characterise on a single-fibre level. EXPERIMENTS Optical microscopy (OM) was applied to study the effect of air-through bonding, spunbonding, and crimping on fibre geometry and general appearance. A "spray-on" method developed here using a custom-designed fibre holder allowed a direct measurement of static contact angles of water droplets on single fibres. Scanning
