ISBN 10: 0070077193 ISBN 13: 9780070077195

Publisher: McGraw-Hill Education (India), 2008

The book provides an in-depth coverage on the world of adhesives and coatings and their relevance in our day-to-day life. Apart from the principles and practices of adhesives, coatings, microencapsulation and plating processes, the book presents a comprehensive description on coated textiles, powder coatings, tribology and tribological coatings. With this wide coverage, Adhesives and Coatings Technology would serve as likable, reference book for professionals as well as students of polymer and related technology and chemical engineering. This book supplements author's other two books—Polymer Science and Technology: Plastics, Rubbers, Blends and Composites, 2/e, and Fibre Science and Technology, published in 2002 and 2004, respectively, by Tata McGraw-Hill.
