Polymer Blends: Formulation and Performance, Set - Set

Zusatztext "...Volume 1...covers the physics! chemistry and processing issues associated with the formation.... Volume 2...primarily concerned with how blends perform in practical situations." (SciTech Book News! Vol. 25! No. 4! December 2001) Informationen zum Autor Donald R. Paul is an American materials scientist and engineer currently the Ernest Cockrell, Sr. Chair in Engineering at University of Texas at Austin. His interests are polymer engineering, biomaterials and membranes. Clive B. Bucknall is the author of Polymer Blends: Formulation and Performance, Two-Volume Set, published by Wiley. Klappentext In den letzten 20 Jahren hat sich auf dem Gebiet der Polymer-Mischtechnik viel verändert. Dieses 2-bändige Werk bietet einen umfangreichen Überblick über alle Aspekte der Polymermischung. Band 1 beschäftigt sich mit Mischtechniken, Strukturbildung und mehrphasigen Gemischen; der Schwerpunkt des zweiten Bandes liegt auf den Einsatzgebieten und dem Recycling von Polymergemischen. Ein unentbehrliches Nachschlagewerk - nicht nur für Neueinsteiger, sondern auch für praxiserfahrene Kunststoffingenieure, Materialwissenschaftler und Bauingenieure. Zusammenfassung This comprehensive overview of polymer blending is broken down into two volumes. Volume one deals with the characterization techniques of blends, structure formation and multiphase blends, while volume two explores the practical performance of blends.
