Engineering with Polymers, 2nd Edition..

Plastics and rubber materials, or polymers, are increasingly the first choice of engineers where reliable cost-effective performance and safety are essential. This is a substantially revised and enlarged edition of a text on engineering with polymers which was first published in 1983...

A mini-encyclopedia of basic information on the fire properties of plastics, the Flammability Handbook for Plastics has been widely used and recognized as a basic guide and reference to the fire behavior and fire retardance of plastics. This new updated edition reflects the changing plastics market ..

This new book explores the consideration of relationships that connect the structural and basic mechanical properties of polymeric mediums within the frameworks of fractal analysis with cluster model representations attraction. Incidentally, the choice of any structural model of medium or their comb..

This book focuses on polysulfones and their derivatives, which are used as functional materials due to their structural and physical characteristics. The text presents the bioapplications of polysulfones in two categories: blood-contacting devices and cell- or tissue-contacting devices. It analyzes ..
