Based on the author's 30 years of research and engineering activities in the field of complex polymer systems, this volume is a comprehensive survey of the many aspects of rubber and thermoplastic filled polymers. It demonstrates their commonalities and the scientific background behind their many industrial applications.
Based on the author's 30 years of research and engineering activities in the field of complex polymer systems, this volume is a comprehensive survey of the many aspects of rubber and thermoplastic filled polymers. It demonstrates their commonalities and the scientific background behind their many industrial applications and also analyzes theoretical considerations which explain the origin of the singular properties of filled polymers. An appendix includes a selection of calculation worksheets with numerical illustrations to clarify the concepts.
