Plastics without additives are not viable. Additives are essential to make plastics processable and to ensure their end-use properties. More than ten years have passed since the last major revision of the Plastics Additives Handbook. During this decade, the demands on additives have continued to evolve - not only because of changes in processing conditions and production techniques, but also because plastics are being used in more demanding applications. This new, fully revised edition of Plastics Additives Handbook, previously described by one reviewer as the 'bible' for anyone involved in the chemistry and technology of plastics additives, provides an excellent overview of the complex science and technology of plastics additives and their industry. It offers guidance for all professionals involved in the development of new thermoplastic resin grades and novel end-use applications.
