Engineering design teams sometimes have need of a material that may
not exist because the combination of required properties is
difficult to achieve. One solution is to develop a new material
having the required set of properties needed in the application.
During the author's 40-year career he has successfully worked on
many such problems. The uniquely useful and valuable book,
Polymeric Thermosetting Compounds: Innovative Aspects of Their
Formulation Technology, presents twenty of those design problems
and the solutions, which resulted in patents and spin-off
applications. Author Ralph Hermansen, with years of experience of
hands-on experience, is an expert in formulating epoxies,
polyurethanes, and other polymers into compounds that have unique
properties, and here he shares his knowledge and experience of
attaining novel solutions to very challenging problems. He covers
polymeric compounds such as coatings, adhesives, encapsulants,
transparent plastics, and others. Chapters describe the design
problem and define which key properties are sought in the new
material. The author shares his thinking about how to approach the
formulating problem and describes the experimental procedures used
to eventually solve the problem. Patent information is shared as
well. Once a new family of polymeric compounds is developed, that
technology can be used to attack new unsolved materials problems,
or "spin-offs," and real-life examples are provided to help readers
see new applications of the technologies described in the earlier
chapters. The book will be of interest to a diverse group of
people. Industry professionals already in the business of selling
specialty compounds may be able to add new products to their
catalogs with little research cost or time by using the information
in the book. Formulators, trying to develop a new compound to
challenging requirements, may gain insight into how to make a
breakthrough. The information in the book will be very valuable to
companies needing these novel solutions. And younger people
wondering what a career in materials science would be like get a
first-hand commentary from someone who has done it.
