Description
Handbook of polymer science and technology / edited by Nicholas P. Influence of Molecular Structure on Polymer Photophysical and Photochemical Properties. Hideharu Ushiki. Kazuyukl Horie. Elastomer Blends: Phase Behavior and Related Problems in Rubber Technology.
Elastomer Technology Handbook is a major new reference on the science and technology of engineered elastomers. This contributed volume features some of the latest work by international experts in polymer science and rubber technology. Topics covered include theoretical and practical information on characterizing rubbers, designing engineering elastomers for consumer and engineering applications, properties testing, chemical and physical property characterization, polymerization chemistry, rubber processing and fabrication methods, and rheological characterization. The book also highlights both conventional and emerging market applications for synthetic rubber products and emphasizes the latest technology advancements.
Elastomer Technology Handbook is a 'must have' book for polymer researchers and engineers. It will also benefit anyone involved in the handling, manufacturing, processing, and designing of synthetic rubbers.
