Practical and affordable, thermoplastics account for more than 90 percent of all plastic materials manufactured. That so many varieties are now available, speaks to the idea that while there is no one perfect material, it is possible to find a material that fits for every applic…
Chemical Resistance of Engineering Thermoplastics
This book is the first to cover all phases of heat sealing as it relates to packaging. Beginning with the basics of heat-sealing processes and thermoplastic materials, the book explains, with numerous formulas and original experimental data, all the key parameters. With this inf…
"All commercial polymers are compounds that contain additives primarily intended as stabilizers. These additives protect the polymer from oxygen, heat, and other aspects of the environment. Many available polymer products are compounds that involve a wide range of ingredients, i…
This book describes the composition of all major types of polymer compounds, both thermoplastics as well as rubbers. It describes the intended effects of various additives and the complexity of their, sometimes unintended, interactions.
