In den WarenkorbCloth. Zustand: Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition.Ex Library with usual stamps and labels But good content Miracle Materials? Or nasty substitutes? Both these extreme judgments of plastics are often heard. Which, if either, is correct? Suspend your verdict until you have head this book, which tells you the truth about… plastics, from their natural origins (are nylon stockings really made from lumps of coal?) to ther uses in nuclear submarines (polythene soaks up neutrons like a sponge) What does the word polythene mean? What does PVC stand for? Just what exactly is a polymer? What is the difference between thermoplastics and thermosets? How are plastics moulded into shape? The author is uniquely qualified to tell you the answers. A chemist engaged on research into new uses for plastics, he is also one of the country's best known writers and lecturers on the subject. He is not only co-author of the standard textbook on polymer technology but writes expertly for the non-expert, informing and entertaining at the same time. In this book, in simple but never over-simplified terms, he answers all the questions you are likely to ask about the sources and manner of making the hundred and one articles that are now part of everyday life. Necessity is the mother of invention, and Britain alone already consumes about a million tons a year of these products, most of which are conspicuously light in weight. The industry is still growing rapidly. What forms are the plastics of the future likely to take? Will the world's supply of raw materials dry up? Read all about it inside.Illustrations. 184 pp. . (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.). David McKee (illustrator).
