Properties and Performance of Polymer Blends

This book presents an overview of properties and performance of polymer blends. It is structured into nine sections dealing with aspects required for assessing the performance of a polymer blend. These are mechanical properties comprising of both low-speed and high-speed popularly studied properties; chemical and solvent effects; thermal and thermodynamic properties; flammability; electrical, optical, and sound transmission properties; and some special test methods which assumed prominence recently because of their utility.
