Plastics Additives by G. Pritchard Pdf

Although plastics are extremely successful commercially, they would never reach acceptable performance standards either in properties or processing without the incorporation of additives. With the inclusion of additives, plastics can be used in a variety of areas competing directly with other materials, but there are still many challenges to overcome. Some additives are severely restricted by legislation, others interfere with each other-in short their effectiveness varies with circumstances. Plastics Additives explains these issues in an alphabetical format making them easily accessible to readers, enabling them to find specific information on a specific topic. Each additive is the subject of one or more articles, providing a suffinct account of each given topic. An international group of experts in additive and polymer science, from many world class companies and institutes, explain the recent rapid changes in additive technology. They cover novel additives (scorch inhibitors, compatibilizers, surface-modified particulates etc.), the established varieties (antioxidants, biocides, antistatic agents, nucleating agents, fillers, fibres, impact modifiers, plasticizers) and many others, the articles also consider environmental concerns, interactions between additives and legislative change. With a quick reference guide and introductory articles that provide the non-specialist and newcomer with relevant information, this reference book is essential reading for anyone concerned with plastics and additives.

Biocidal Polymers by Narendra Pal Singh Chauhan Pdf

This book provides detailed information on synthetic, mechanistic and technological aspects of synthetic and natural antimicrobial polymers. Biocidal polymers are able to inhibit or kill microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi and protozoans. The advantages of antimicrobial polymers over conventional antimicrobial agents include their non-volatility, chemical stability, non-toxicity (difficult to permeate through the skin of animals), ability to prolong product life, increased efficiency and selectivity while minimising their environmental impact. Currently, there is an urgent requirement to develop a synthetic strategy involving different kinds of polymers whose potency against specific microorganisms is accompanied by less hazardous effects.

Biodamage and Biodegradation of Polymeric Materials by Elena L Pekhtasheva Pdf

The issue of biodamages comprises a wide range of scientific and practical tasks associated with protection of raw materials and products against damage by bacteria, fungi, insects and rodents during long-term storage, production, transportation and operation. The biodegradation is used for degradation and utilization of worn-out materials and articles. This research is urgent for ecology and the struggle against environmental contamination. The biodamage problem is both scientifically complex and practically diverse. Scientifically, it is based on the knowledge of material science, biology and chemistry.The first objective of this book is to provide detailed information on the three interrelated parts: bacteria and fungi (the source of biodamages); insects and rodents (materials and products depredators); and materials and products damaged by living organisms. The most modern data on morphology and physiology of biodegrading microorganisms are presented. The second objective of this book is to provide the reader with a systematisation of biological degradation on both natural and synthetic materials and products (plastics, textile, fibres, leather and fur, wood and so on). Problems of utilisation of polymeric wastes using microorganisms are discussed and main protection methods and technology for raw materials and semi-products against biodamages are shown. Practical recommendation for struggle against biodamage of materials by insects (moth, leather beetles, wood-fretters, cockroaches and termites) and rodents (mice and rats) are given.Since 1960 the biodamage problem received the official status as a large international and practical direction at the junction of sciences and practice of mankind and pooling efforts of various specialists. The final objective of this book is to illustrate that the problem of biodamages is very real today because it is relevant to many aspects of our everyday lives.This volume is intended to be a practical guide on biodamage and biodegradation of polymeric materials and a quick reference to students and researchers from academia and the industry.

Addcon World by Anonim Pdf

Addcon World is the leading Additives, Modifiers and Compounding Conference. It has run for the last nine years. The conference focused on the technical advances and issues facing the plastics additives and modifiers industry. Papers at this year's event discussed the latest developments and the future of the additives business. Addcon conferences are two-day meetings for people who are interested in knowing something about all the major ingredients of a modern plastics product, and not just the one they currently research, manufacture or sell. In this respect they are different from meetings where the focus is on a single type of additive, and where recent developments in related fields can easily be overlooked. Since additives can interact with each other, and even neutralise each other's effects (as anyone combining certain light stabilisers with certain flame retardants knows) a conference that updates your appreciation of the wider technical scene is well worth considering. Additives today play an essential role in enabling plastics to continue to compete with other materials such as wood, metals, paper and glass. several years, and there is still scope for further expansion, especially in Central and Eastern Europe, but this trend cannot simply be taken for granted. The industry faces challenging problems, including a steady increase in European regulatory directives, and the need to compete with low cost manufacturers in Asia and elsewhere. Several large producers in Western Europe have been struggling to maintain their position in the face of difficult market conditions. Improved additives will be needed to produce end products economically, so that they comply with present and future regulations, and in sufficiently high quality to satisfy increasingly demanding customers.
