Synopsis

Examines the mechanisms involved in the film formation process in waterborne coatings. Discusses the use of fluorescence decay, spectroscopy, neutron scattering, infrared spectroscopy, dielectric spectroscopy, and other instrumental methods to study the film formation process. Examines the relationship of the film formation process to the development of the mechanical properties and morphological structure of the film. Investigates the role of cross-linking in the development of film properties.

About this title

Review

"The new coating technologies have to meet a number of challenges, the regulations in the area of ecology limiting the emission of volatile organic compounds being prime urgency. This requires the use of water as the major solvent with water-soluble or high-molecular-weight latex polymers, and
has led to a need for improved methods of characterization of materials and for modeling and predicting the properties of materials and processes. The 31 chapters of the book cover significant advances recently made in this area." --Colloid and Polymer Science
