Since the first edition of this book was published, there have been wide-ranging developments, covering chemistry and formulation of new and more efficient additive systems and the safer use of additives, both by processors in the factory and, in the wider field, as they affect the general public.

This new edition follows the successful formula of its predecessor, it provides a comprehensive view of all types of additives, concentrating mainly on their technical aspects (chemistry/formulation, structure, function, main applications) with notes on the commercial background of each. The field has been expanded to include any substance that is added to a polymer to improve its use, so including reinforcing materials (such as glass fibre), carbon black and titanium dioxide.

This is a book which has been planned for ease of use and the information is presented in a way which is appropriate to the users' needs 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on July 25, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aPlastics$xAdditives 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 776 1 $cOriginal$z1856173704$z9781856173704$w(DLC) 2001054794$w(OCoLC)48223286 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9781856173704$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 856 41$zTable of contents only$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0611/2001054794-t.html 856 42$zPublisher description$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0611/2001054794-d.html 907 $a.b13654044$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003241779707536 996 $aAdditives for plastics handbooks$91595967 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$genk$h0$i0
