Informationen zum Autor Johannes Karl Fink is Professor of Macromolecular Chemistry at Montanuniversität Leoben, Austria. His industry and academic career spans more than 30 years in the fields of polymers, and his research interests include characterization, flame retardancy, thermodynamics and the degradation of polymers, pyrolysis, and adhesives. Professor Fink has published several books on physical chemistry and polymer science including A Concise Introduction to Additives for Thermoplastic Polymers (Wiley-Scrivener 2009), The Chemistry of Biobased Polymers (Wiley-Scrivener 2014), Polymer Waste Management (Wiley-Scrivener 2018) and 3D Industrial Printing with Polymers (Wiley-Scrivener 2019). Klappentext One of the very few books devoted to the chemistry, materials and processing of liquid silicone rubber The scientific literature with respect to liquid silicone rubber is collected in this monograph. The text focuses on the fundamental issues such as properties, curing methods, special materials, as well as the latest developments, and provides a broad overview of the materials used therein. In particular, materials and compositions for liquid functional rubbers are discussed. Methods of curing and special properties are also described, such as tracking and erosion resistance, adhesion properties, storage and thermal stability. Methods of curing are precision casting, hybrid additive manufacturing, peroxide curing, ultraviolet curing, liquid injection moulding, or hot embossing. The book includes applications including automotive and underwater applications, electrical and optical uses, as well as medical uses. Audience The book will be used by polymer and materials scientists as well as adhesion/adhesives/ sealant, rubber and elastomer specialists both in academia and industry. Practitioners in the fields of electrical and automotive engineering, medical device makers and apparel manufacturers will find the book particularly useful.
