Polymeric Foams: Science and Technology (ACS Symposium Series)

By Kishan C. Khemani and K.C. Khemani

Covering foam composition and uses, this book presents the basics of foaming different polymeric materials. Topics include siloxane, polyimide, polyester, polyisocyanurate, and polyurethane foams. There are also individual chapters on solid-state microcellular foams and extruded microcellular foams, a comprehensive chapter on bubble morphology characterization and its relation to foam properties, as well as a broad chapter on the modeling of intumescent fire-retardant polymers. There are also two theoretical chapters on aspects of foam extrusion and the dynamics of bubble growth.
