Contains a review of information available in open literature, such as published scientific papers, information from plasticizer manufacturers, and patent literature. This book contains information from the sources and information from previous edition. It permits to use plasticizers effectively and to avoid certain plasticizers in applications.

The second edition of the Handbook of Plasticizers thoroughly reviews information currently available in open literature, such as published scientific papers, information from plasticizer manufacturers, and patent literature.

Plasticizers are used in so many products that every library should have this reference source of information on plasticizers readily available for its readers. This book should be used in conjunction with Plasticizer Database, which gives information on the present status and properties of industrial and research plasticizers.

The book covers the uses, advantages, and disadvantages of plasticizers, historical and theoretical background, their effects on process conditions, and health, safety, and environmental issues.

George Wypych has a Ph.D. in chemical engineering. His professional expertise includes both university teaching (full professor) and research and development.
