Organic Coatings: Science and Technology

2017 | Science & Mathematics

The 4th edition of Organic Coatings: Science and Technology presents an updated, systematic survey of organic coatings technology and its numerous applications. Written by industry experts including a new internationally-recognized coatings scientist, this self-contained volume revises and updates the material from the previous editions -- making it more useful experienced coatings personnel, for scientists and engineers first entering the field, as well as for students in coatings courses. Incorporating recent developments, this book helps scientists, engineers, and paint formulators better understand the principles underlying the technology and use them effectively in the development, production, and application of various types of coatings. Each topic is carefully summarized and accompanied by extensive references to sources of detailed information-particularly useful in self-study. Each chapter in the new edition has been updated to assure consistency and to enable extensive cross-referencing and covers topics not previously covered such as artist paints, extrusion coating, sustainability, and high throughput research methods. In addition, the material is also applicable to the related areas of printing inks, adhesives, and parts of the plastics industry.
