Description
The information available today permits the use of plasticizers more effectively and to avoid certain plasticizers in applications where
they may cause health or material durability problems. Plasticizer incorporation demands a broad background of information because they
are now added to complex mixtures containing a variety of materials which may have different reactions to the presence of plasticizers.
The choice of a plasticizer is also complex because there is a large selection of commercial plasticizers and various environmental
issues dictating preferred solutions. These complex issues indicated the need for the publication of a comprehensive source, and this
book certainly fills the bill. This book covers the theoretical and applicable information concerning plasticizers, while all the numerical
data is contained in the companion product Plasticizers Database.
Audience:
Plastics Industry: research and development; production chemists and engineers; environmental engineers; environmental professionals;
industrial hygienists; legislators; medical professionals; civil engineers; university professors and students.
