Handbook of Material Weathering (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781774670583)

Handbook of Material Weathering, Seventh Edition is an essential guide on the effects of weathering on polymers and industrial products, presenting theory, stress factors, methods of weathering and testing, and the effects of additives and environmental stress cracking. The book provides graphical illustrations and numerical data to examine the weathering of major polymers and industrial products, including mechanisms of degradation, effect of thermal processes, and characteristic changes in properties. Final sections discuss recycling, corrosion, weathering, and the weathering of stone.

This book is an important reference source for those involved in studying material durability, producing materials for outdoor use and actinic exposure, research chemists in the photochemistry field, chemists and material scientists designing new materials, users of manufactured products, those who control the quality of manufactured products, and students who want to apply their knowledge to real materials.
