The definitive reference on the properties and applications of
polyolefin blends
Polyolefins account for more than half of total plastics
consumption in the world. In recent years, usage of and research on
polyolefin blends have increased significantly due to new
applications in medicine, packaging, and other fields and the
development of novel polyolefins. With a special emphasis on nano-
and micro-structures of crystals and phase morphology, Polyolefin
Blends condenses and consolidates current information on
polyolefins so that the reader can compare, select, and integrate a
material solution. Focusing exclusively on the fundamental aspects
as well as applications of polyolefin blends, this authoritative
reference:
* Features an introductory chapter that serves as a guide to
polyolefin blends
* Includes chapters covering formulation design, processing,
characterization, modeling and simulation, engineering performance
properties, and applications
* Covers polyolefin/polyolefin blends and polyolefin/non-polyolefin
blends
* Discusses miscibility, phase behavior, functionalization,
compatibilization, microstructure, crystallization, hierarchical
morphology, and physical and mechanical properties
* Covers new research trends including in-situ reactor blending and
reactive processing, such as compatibilization/functionalization in
the melt
* Contains practical examples from open literature sources and
commercial products
With chapters contributed by leading experts from several
countries, this is a must-have reference for scientists and
engineers conducting research on polyolefin blends and for
professionals in medical, packaging, and other commodity fields. It
is also an excellent text for graduate students studying polymer
science and polymer processing.
