Synopsis

Polymer laboratories use a variety of analytical techniques to determine the properties and characteristics of polymers in order to select the best material for a specific purpose and to determine why a material has failed. This volume describes a range of analytical techniques for compositional analysis, quality control and failure analysis of polymeric materials. The author draws from experience of commercial polymer laboratories to provide case studies that represent the full range of problems which arise and situations which occur. Containing reference tables of the physical properties of polymers, this is a practical guide for those working in polymer laboratories in analysis or product development.

From the Back Cover

Compositional and Failure Analysis of Polymers A Practical Approach John Scheirs ExcelPlas, Australia Intended as a practical guide for polymer technologists, engineers and analysts in the plastics, composites and rubber fields, this title describes a range of techniques and strategies for compositional and failure analysis of polymeric materials and products. Numerous, examples illustrate the application of analytical methods for solving commonly encountered problems in the polymer industry. The reader is guided towards the most appropriate method of analysis and measurement and the most likely reasons for the failure. Areas covered include:

  • Migration and interaction of additives
  • Mechanical stress and stress cracking
  • Crazing and fracture
  • Residual stress and weld lines
  • Contamination and discoloration
Numerous pedagogical methods, illustrative flow diagrams, figures and tables are used throughout the text to make it an invaluable guide to all analysts and polymer engineers in industrial or academic laboratories.
