Front Cover; Dedication; Contents; Preface; Acknowledgments; Editors; Contributors; 1. Introduction; 2. Statistical Thermodynamics of Gas Solubility in Polymers; 3. Rheology of Thermoplastic Foam Extrusion Process; 4. Material Strength in Molten State for Foam; 5. Fundamental Mechanisms of Cell Nucleation in Plastic Foam Processing; 6. Foam Nucleation in Gas-Dispersed Polymeric Systems; 7. Foam Growth in Polymers; 8. Polymeric Foaming Simulation and Visual Observation: Batch and Continuous; 9. Process Design for Thermoplastic Foam Extrusion; 10. Extrusion Equipment for Foam Processing
11. Foam Extrusion with Physical Blowing Agents-Practical Approach12. Mixing Design for Foam Extrusion: Analysis and Practices; 13. Foaming Agents for Foam Extrusion; 14. Extrusion of High-Density and Low-Density Microcellular Plastics; 15. Foam Extrusion of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET); 16. Extrusion Foaming of Biodegradable Polymers; Color Insert
Combining the science of foam with the engineering of extrusion processes, Foam Extrusion: Principles and Practice delivers a detailed discussion of the theory, design, processing, and application of degradable foam extraction. In one comprehensive volume, the editors present the collective expertise of leading academic, research, and industry specialists while laying the scientific foundation in such a manner that the microscopic transition from a nucleus to a void (nucleation) and macroscopic movement from a void to an object (formation) are plausibly addressed.
