Polymer Mixing: Technology and Engineering

During the past 25 years, there has been an accelerating increase in the development and production of new polymer blends and in the preparation of compounds of polymers with carbon black, various fibers, and inorganic particles. These developments have led to a blending/compounding industry, which sits between the polymer producers and the manufacturers of shaped products such as injection molders.

Polymer Mixing: Technology and Engineering intends to provide, in one place, a broad based examination of the characteristics of polymer blends and compounds, and the methods of preparing them in batch and continuous mixing equipment.
