Thermoplastic Elastomers

Thermoplastic elastomers still are one the fastest growing groups of material. They can be processed like thermoplastics but their properties are close to those of vulcanized elastomers. New products, new processing techniques, new properties, and new applications have been experienced in the last decade. All this is reflected in this well edited multi-authored reference work which provides a unique and comprehensive up-to-date guide to all scientific and technical aspects of thermoplastic elastomers.

Thermoplastic elastomers are one of the fastest growing material groups. They can be processed like thermoplastics but their properties are close to those of vulcanized elastomers. New products, new processing techniques, new properties, and new applications have developed since the publication of the 2nd edition. All these developments are reflected in the new edition of this well-established standard work. A unique and comprehensive, up-to-date guide to all scientific and technical aspects of thermoplastic elastomers - indispensable for everyone working in this field.
