Synopsis

A comprehensive introduction to polyurethanes, their processing and applications. This family of materials is probably the most versatile group of plastics now available. The wide variety of forms - from flexible and rigid foams to rubberlike elastomers - has made polyurethanes probably one of the most commonly used plastics. A general view of polyurethanes is given first, followed by information on basic chemistry, the machinery and techniques for manufacture and the chemical raw materials available. The properties, uses and advantages of a wide variety of polyurethane products are examined with special attention to rigid and flexible foams. An extensive glossary, a comprehensive index, and tabulated data on the properties of raw materials and typical end products makes consultation of the book quick and simple. Information is provided for both the materials manufacturer and the designer. Numerous illustrations make clear the technology at all stages. Author George Woods has used his 30 years of experience in ICI Polyurethanes, backed with the technical expertise and co-operation of many of his colleagues, to present polyurethanes in all their forms. The book will be of lasting value to all those interested in these materials.
