When combined with reinforcing agents, plastics can be used for a
number of high-temperature applications. Plastics Reinforcement and
Industrial Applications provides a detailed discussion on plastics,
polymers, and reinforcing agents (including organic and natural
biomaterials). Focused specifically on improving the mechanical,
thermal, and electrical stability of plastics by combining them
with reinforcing agents, this book explains the background of
reinforced plastics and describes how they work. The book examines
reinforcing agents that include glass fibers, carbon fibers, carbon
nanotubes, graphite, talc, and minerals, and commonly used plastics
such as polyamides, polyesters, polyethylene terephthalate, and
epoxy resins. It also introduces newer plastics such as polyimides,
polysulfones, polyethersulfone, polyphenylene sulfide, and
polyether ether ketones. It highlights recent developments in the
field that include the use of nanocomposites for manufacturing
sports equipment, and other applications of nanoparticles in
polymer reinforcement. In addition, use of this material can aid in
the production of plastics utilized in the construction of aircraft
and light weight automobiles. The author covers a wide range of
applications that may be applied in general engineering,
automotive, aerospace, building materials, electronics and
microelectronics, power sources, medical, and bioengineering. He
also includes material on natural fibers used for reinforcement and
green chemistry applications. Suitable for use in the metals and
plastics industries, Plastics Reinforcement and Industrial
Applications is an ideal resource for polymer and material
scientists, and chemical and mechanical engineers.
