Riassunto

In den letzten 20 Jahren hat sich auf dem Gebiet der Polymer-Mischtechnik viel verändert. Dieses 2-bändige Werk bietet einen umfangreichen Überblick über alle Aspekte der Polymermischung. Band 1 beschäftigt sich mit Mischtechniken, Strukturbildung und mehrphasigen Gemischen; der Schwerpunkt des zweiten Bandes liegt auf den Einsatzgebieten und dem Recycling von Polymergemischen. Ein unentbehrliches Nachschlagewerk - nicht nur für Neueinsteiger, sondern auch für praxiserfahrene Kunststoffingenieure, Materialwissenschaftler und Bauingenieure.

Preface

The field of polymer blends, or alloys, has experienced enormous growth in size and sophistication over the past two decades in terms of both the scientific base and technological and commercial development. It has become clear to us that an appropriate summary of this progress is needed to educate and to guide professionals working in this area into the twenty-first century. This two-volume set is a multiauthored treatise that might be viewed as an updated version of the analogous set edited by Paul and Newman and published in 1978. (See the reading list at the end of Chapter 1.) The book is intended to be a coherent entity rather than a collection of separate chapters, and a great deal of effort has been devoted to coordinating the content and style of the chapters. The editors intended each chapter to be far more than an encyclopedic summary of the literature or a review focusing only on the most recent advances in research. The authors were asked (a) to provide enough background in each chapter to enable beginners to work in the field by reading this book; (b) to sift critically through the literature and present only the most important issues (not every reference deserves mention); and (c) to write clearly but concisely, using carefully selected graphics, in order to make the important conceptual points and capture the attention of the browser.

It is the goal of these two volumes to be the authoritative source that professionals of the next decades will seek out to learn about this important field and use to set directions for future research and product development. The two volumes are roughly equal in length. Volume 1 is subtitled Formulation and is largely about the physics, chemistry, and processing issues associated with the formation of polymer blends and the evaluation and control of their structure. Volume 2 is subtitled Performance and is primarily concerned with how blends perform in practical situations. Naturally, there is a heavy emphasis on mechanical performance, but several chapters deal with a range of other properties as well. At some risk of oversimplification, it can be said that Volume 1 is about structure, while Volume 2 is about properties. Thus, the two-volume set provides a broad view of the structure-property relationships for polymer blends as seen by experts from around the world.

The editors have been friends and colleagues for many years. Their professional interests have been somewhat different over their careers, but there are many points of intersection. These differences and similarities have been helpful during the course of planning, which started in early 1994, and development of this book. A common view was needed in order to foster agreement on the scope, content, and choice of authors. The differences in expertise led Don Paul to have primary responsibility for Volume 1 and Clive Bucknall to oversee Volume 2.

We are thankful to many colleagues and friends who have encouraged us and given us advice on many issues. D. R. Paul C. B. Bucknall
