Synopsis

Virtually all modern plastic materials would be unstable without one or more additives which may be included to improve the product, to aid processing, to prolong life or to protect it from extremes, such as fire. The 20 chapters of this text deal with virtually every conceivable polymer additive, including antioxidants, light stabilizers, processing aids, pigments, colourants, fillers and reinforcing agents. A wide range of polymers types is discussed. The treatment is well balanced. Both the underlying science, and the practical applications are well discussed and there is also a discussion of test methods for additive performance, of method of analysis of additives and of safety and environmental implications.
