These polymers would be useless without various additives.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe book focuses on polyolefin additives that are currently important in the plastics industry, alongside new additives of increasing interest, such as nanofillers and environmentally sustainable materials. As much as possible, each chapter emphasises the performance of the additives in the polymer, and the value each relevant additive brings to polypropylene or polyethylene. Where possible, similar additives are compared by capability and relative cost.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIn this new edition, product tables have been updated with the most current product and company names, new case studies have been added, the role of nanofillers is discussed in greater detail, and the book concludes with a discussion on blending and handling additives, along with an entirely new chapter on how engineers can approach the issue of sustainability when choosing an additive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 Introduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Trends in polyolefin and additive use\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Antioxidants and heat stabilization\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Ultraviolet light protection and stabilization\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Flame-retarding additives\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Additives for modifying electrical properties\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Overview of fillers and fibers\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Factors determining selection of fillers and fibers\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Colorants\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Nucleation and clarity\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 Processing aids for molding\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 Processing aids for extrusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e13 Reducing density: PO foams\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e14 Coupling, compatibilizing, recycling, and biodegradability\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e15 Cross-linking\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e16 Sterilization and radiation resistance\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e17 Aesthetics enhancement and surface modification\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e18 Gas-barrier properties enhancement\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e19 Adding additives to resin\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e20 Choosing additives for sustainability\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Materials science [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Materials science\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Materials%20science%20%5BTGM%5D%22\"\u003eTGM\u003c\/a\u003e], Plastics \u0026amp; polymers technology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Plastics \u0026amp; polymers technology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Plastics%20\u0026amp;%20polymers%20technology%20%5BTDCP%5D%22\"\u003eTDCP\u003c\/a\u003e], Physical chemistry [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Physical chemistry\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Physical%20chemistry%20%5BPNR%5D%22\"\u003ePNR\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"William Andrew","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46650441859352,"sku":"9780323358842","price":110.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780323358842.jpg?v=1694988933","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/additives-for-polyolefins-getting-the-most-out-of-polypropylene-polyethylene-and-tpo-hardback-9780323358842","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
