Description
Book SynopsisThis first book to concentrate on providing a concise, representative overview of polymer microencapsulation for novel organic coatings and all its chemical and engineering aspects collates the literature hitherto spread out among journals in various disciplines. It covers all the important methods for carrying out microencapsulations, including in situ polymerization, phase separation, emulsification, grinding and spray drying. The result is a solid, introduction from first-hand practitioners working in industry and research institutions for newcomers to the field. It is equally vital reading for professionals already active in the area needing to stay abreast of developments.
Trade Review"
FC is a largely qualitative and descriptive book which makes it quiet readable." (
Journal of Metals, July 20, 2008)
"The graphics are of high quality and this applies to the general appearance of the whole book. Impressive is the very comprehensive coverage of the relevant literature." (ChemPhysChem, 2008)
"...Functional Coatings ist stattdessen eine eindrucksvolle Sammlung von Forschungsergebnissen zahlreicher Expertengruppen und somit ein ausgezeichnetes Nachschlagewerk für Wissenschaftler, die sich für dieses Gebiet interessieren. Die Themen sind dank des ausführlichen Inhalts- und Sachwortverzeichnisses leicht zu finden. Fazit: Das Buch ist Interessierten an Hochschulen und in der Industrie sehr zu empfehlen."
