The first comprehensive and functionally useful engineering analysis of underlying principles and mechanisms. Takes a novel approach suggesting that any of the prevailing processing methods can be broken down into a shaping step and into a set of clearly defined elementary steps that prepare the polymeric raw material for shaping. The shaping steps include calendering and coating; die forming; mold coating; molding and casting; and secondary shaping; whereas the elementary steps are handling of particulate solids; melting; pressurization and pumping; mixing; and stripping and devolatilization.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Very complete polymer processing all in one handbook,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Principles of Polymer Processing (Hardcover)
Everything you have ever wanted to know about all polymer processing principles, beginning from the behavior in the hopper ending with the final product common defects, you will find it in that extraodinary helpful book, in a language that reminds you your early university studies. Thanks Mr Tadmor.
