Applications of Synthetic Resin Latices - Vol.1: Applications of Synthetic Resin Latices, Fundamental Chemistry of - Latices and Applications in Adhesive

Zusatztext "...a valuable reference resource..."(Polymer International! Vol 54 (9) September 2005) Informationen zum Autor H. Warson is the author of Applications of Synthetic Resin Latices , Volume 1, Fundamental Chemistry of Latices & Applications in Adhesives, published by Wiley. C. A. Finch is the author of Applications of Synthetic Resin Latices , Volume 1, Fundamental Chemistry of Latices & Applications in Adhesives, published by Wiley. Klappentext The production of polymer latices has developed over the past half-century from pioneer status to a major industry with an annual production of over 6 million tonnes of polymers. Over this period, increased understanding of their many technical applications has extended the usefulness of water-based latices both technically and commercially. With present trends in ensuring environmental safety, water-based latices play an ever-increasing role, overcoming the limitations of water-soluble and solvent-based polymers in a diverse range of applications. This title is one of a three volume set entitled The Applications of Synthetic Resin Latices, which discusses the preparation and application of specific groups of latices or polymer emulsions. Volume 1, Fundamental Chemistry of Latices and Applications in Adhesives, surveys the fundamentals of polymer chemistry, the principles and practice of emulsion polymerisation and of the resulting latices and their properties, including alkali-soluble latices, in relation to the requirements of specific applications, including pigmented systems and technical latices. This volume also includes a comprehensive account of the formulation of latex-based adhesives for the bonding of many different substances.
