UR - https://www.unicat.be/uniCat?func=search&query=sysid:78352402 AB - Understanding the mechanisms of thermal degradation will help the chemist to develop materials with better thermal stability, which is particularly important in newer developments in engineering and aerospace. This book reviews the measurement of these properties in the main types of polymers in use today. It is essential for students and those engaged in the manufacture of polymers and the development of end-use applications. ER -
