Reactive polymers fundamentals and applications : a concise guide to industrial polymers

The use of reactive polymers enables manufacturers to make chemical changes at a late stage in the production process-these in turn cause changes in performance and properties. Material selection and control of the reaction are essential to achieve optimal performance. The second edition of Reactive...
