Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although plastics are extremely successful commercially, they would never reach acceptable performance standards either in properties or processing without the incorporation of additives. With the inclusion of additives, plastics can be used in a variety of areas competing directly with other materials, but there are still many challenges to overcome. Some additives are severely restricted by legislation, others interfere with each other-in short their effectiveness varies with circumstances. Plastics Additives explains these issues in an alphabetical format making them easily accessible to readers, enabling them to find specific information on a specific topic. Each additive is the subject of one or more articles, providing a suffinct account of each given topic. An international group of experts in additive and polymer science, from many world class companies and institutes, explain the recent rapid changes in additive technology. They cover novel additives (scorch inhibitors, compatibilizers, surface-modified particulates etc.), the established varieties (antioxidants, biocides, antistatic agents, nucleating agents, fillers, fibres, impact modifiers, plasticizers) and many others, the articles also consider environmental concerns, interactions between additives and legislative change. With a quick reference guide and introductory articles that provide the non-specialist and newcomer with relevant information, this reference book is essential reading for anyone concerned with plastics and additives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the most important substances used as additives in the plastics industry to improve the properties of polymer-based materials. Each chapter deals with a particular type of additive based on the type's definition, structure, and classification according to main effects on polymeric materials. The mechanism of the additive efficiency and its effects on basic properties of specific polymers are discussed and a survey of its important qualities and practical applications is given. Each chapter is introduced by a theoretical analysis of the practical and technological importance of the ad ditive. The book is mainly intended for students in technical colleges, polytechnics and universities who are studying plastics technology and macromolecular chemistry as part of their general curriculum and for technologists in industry engaged in development, sales, technical service and production functions, and applications of plastics. An elementary knowledge of chemistry, physical chemistry and polymer science at the technical college level is assumed. Prague and Montreal, December 1982 J. Stepek, H.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is considerable interest within the polymer industry in developing methods to modify existing polymer systems to achieve improvements in their functional or engineering properties. The chemical treatment of polymers, either prior to or during processing, represents an inexpensive and rapid way of achieving these modifications, and a great deal of research is underway, directed at improving both the understanding of the processes involved and the development of the practical techniques employed. The improvements obtained by chemical treatment range from subtle alteration of the chemical properties of a polymer to wholesale changes in the physical, mechanical and chemical properties, with the current favourable economics ensuring that industry will continue to exploit the technique in the search for improved polymer materials. Written by an international team of authors, drawn from both basic and applied research programmes in industry and academia, and with a strong emphasis on the underlying chemistry, this book forms a timely, concise and accessible evaluation of the most promising technologies developed to date. Chemists, technologists, materials' scientists and engineers working in all areas of the polymer industry, along with academic researchers in those fields, will find this book an essential source of reference in the course of their work.
