An excellent, unique, and up-to-date reference book on
polyoxymethylene, its compounds, and nanocomposites, specifically
dealing with synthesis, characterization, processing, morphology,
and applications
Polyoxymethylene Handbook: Structure, Properties,
Applications, and Their Nanocomposites summarizes many of the
state-of-the-art technological and research accomplishments in the
area of polyoxymethylene (POM). It discusses in length the
polymerization and manufacture of polyoxymethylene and various
types of additives, as well as the structure and crystallization
behavior of POM and its thermal, physical, mechanical, flame
retardant, chemical, electrical, and optical properties. The
environmental impact of POM is also addressed.
The 15 chapters in the handbook are written by prominent
researchers from industry, academia, and government/private
research laboratories across the globe. Because so few books have
ever been published on polyoxymethylene, the handbook is a very
valuable reference tool that truly serves as a ‘one
stop’ resource for readers and users seeking solutions to
both fundamental and applied problems.
