Utilizes an encyclopedic approach to cover the developments in
polyolefins and styrenics during the last decade

This book focuses on common types of polymers belonging to the
class of polyolefins and styrenics. The text is arranged according
to the chemical constitution of polymers and reviews the
developments that have taken place in the last decade. 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, application, as well as safety issues.

Providing a rather encyclopedic approach to polyolefins and
styrenics, 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 as extensive tradenames index with information that is
fairly unique

* Concludes with an index of acronyms

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