Bielinski D.M., Kozlowski R., Zaikov G.E. (Eds.) High Performance Elastomer Materials: An Engineering Approach (AAP Research Notes on Chemistry)

Apple Academic Press, Inc., 2015. – 292 p. – ISBN: 1771880422.This book presents selected papers on various aspects of rubber engineering, technology, and exploitation. The contributions range from new methods of the modification of filler surface and crosslinks structure of rubber vulcanizates, through modern functional elastomer composites, to aspects of their thermal stability, flammability, and ozone degradation.
Each chapter contains a brief introduction to a particular topic, a description of the experimental techniques, and a discussion on the results obtained, followed by conclusions. The book will help to broaden the knowledge of researchers in the field of rubber compounding, crosslinking, and behavior under various exploitation conditions.
The research and development presented in this book has potential for industrial applications as well as for new materials and technologies. The book also details theoretical background to a number of experimental techniques, which should make it interesting to research students and professionals.Structure of Elastomers
