Industrial Polymers, Specialty Polymers, and Their Applications

By Salil K Roy, Manas Chanda, Salil K. Roy

Book Overview

Derived from the well-known Plastics Technology Handbook, this volume is for those whose work focuses on the latest designs in and applications for industrial and specialty polymers. It discusses industrial polymers that are produced using a free-radical mechanism, as well as lesser-used polyurethanes, ketones, acrylics, and condensation polymers. A second part examines the manufacture of specialty polymers for commercial use across diverse fields. A final section presents a comprehensive overview of unusual developments in polymer use, such as in the automotive, appliance, and aerospace industries, as well as in packaging, agriculture, communication, electronics, and medicine.
