Infos

This book focuses on common types of polymers belonging to the
class of water soluble polymers. It covers a wide range of
applications: food, cosmetic, medical, lithography and ink jet
printing, agricultural, wastewater cleaning, and oilfield.



The text is arranged according to the chemical constitution of
polymers and reviews the developments that have taken place in the
last decade. Each chapter follows the same template. A brief
introduction to the polymer type is given and previous monographs
and reviews dealing with the topic are listed for quick reference.
The text continues with monomers, polymerization, fabrication
techniques, properties, applications, as well as safety issues.

Providing a rather encyclopedic approach to water soluble
polymers, the Handbook of Engineering and Specialty
Thermoplastics:

* Presents a listing of suppliers and commercial grades

* Reviews current patent literature, essential for the engineer
developing new products

* Contains an extensive tradenames index with information that is
fairly unique

* Concludes with an index of acronyms and a general index

The Handbook of Engineering and Specialty Thermoplastics: Water
Soluble Polymers provides a comprehensive reference for chemical
engineers and offers advanced students a textbook for use in
courses on chemically biased plastics technology and polymer
science.
