Describes twenty-one of the most important and commonly used
additives
A Concise Introduction to Additives for Thermoplastic
Polymers focuses on additives for thermoplastic polymers and
describes 21 of the most important and commonly used additives from
Plasticizers and Fillers to Optical Brighteners and Anti-Microbial
additives. It also includes chapters on safety and hazards, and
prediction of service time models.
While there are many exhaustive and complex books dealing with
additives for polymers, the size of them deter students and many
industry engineers from using them. The purpose of this book,
therefore, is to fill this void and present a concise introduction
to this important subject.
Written in an accessible and practical style, the author
introduces the reader to the complex subject of plastics additives
in an engaging manner. His ability to be concise is the result of
his teaching courses on the subject and using his own lecture notes
for material. This book comprises the author’s course notes so that
a larger public can benefit from his knowledge.
A Concise Introduction to Additives for Thermoplastic
Polymers is the ideal primer for students who will later work
in polymer science or the development of plastics formulation, as
well as industry engineers and specialists who want to have a
deeper knowledge of the plastics industry.
