From plastics with the strength and durability of metal to mass-produced skins, sensuous plastics, and rental DVDs that expire 48 hours after you've opened the packaging, "Plastics 2" offers a fascinating insight into the most innovative and unusual plastics for designers and manufacturers throughout the world. This book gets under the skin of products and materials to reveal the hidden qualities of plastics, and explores some of the materials that surround us today, and those that will surround us tomorrow, together with their practical applications. So if you want to know who is making what, from contemporary designer materials to tomorrow's everyday products, "Plastics 2" features facts and applications for dozens of new plastic products and materials, key properties of each material featured, plus invaluable Web contact addresses. The sixth volume in the respected 'Materials for Inspirational Design' series, "Plastics 2" will both inspire and amaze.

Seller: Sell Books, Elland, YORKS, United Kingdom
hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
