Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Offers coverage of all known commodity, transitional, engineering, high-temperature and high-performance thermoplastics, and analyzes emerging developments in the creation of new thermoplastics. The text examines: important issues in the field for each substance discussed, including history, development and commercialization; polymer formation mechanisms and process technologies; the affect of structural and phase characteristics on properties; the commercial relevance of thermoplastic blends, alloys, copolymers and composites; and more.

Book News Annotation:

Provides a wide range of information on all known commodity, transitional, engineering, high-temperature, and high-performance thermoplastics. Among the discussions are history, development, and commercialization milestones; polymer formation mechanisms and process technologies; structural and phase characteristics as they affect use properties; blends, alloys, copolymers, composites, and their commercial relevance; processing, performance properties, and applications; and issues relating to current and prospective developments in science, technology, environmental impact, and commercial viability. A comprehensive reference for engineers and chemists in any industry that uses plastics, polymer and materials scientists, and students of those disciplines.
