Stabilization of Polymeric Materials (Macromolecular Systems - Materials Approach)

Description

Synopsis A comprehensive overview of the basic mechanisms of plastic degradation processes caused by heat and light, this text has at its core a detailed description of the stabilization of different polymers. Included in this is an explanation of stabilization mechanism and the influence of commonly-used additives such as fillers, flame retardents and pigments on the stability of plastic.
