The majority of design engineers have little experience with rubber, often completely lost when determining how to select one of the many rubber options that would be best suited for their applications.

In her book Rubber: Science and Technology, Elisabetta Princi delves into the world of rubber, giving readers a complete survey of the life cycle of rubber materials, starting from the basics and covering everything to recycling of rubber.

Rubber science and technology comprises both art and science aspects, because the base elastomer is highly customizable, together with all the other main ingredients of rubber compound, such as the curing system, fillers, anti-degradants and processing aids among them.

The aim of Rubber: Science and Technology is to provide the key information and insights about rubber compounding, transformation technologies, applications and reclaiming methods. Emphasis is given on the scientific approach to rubber science, departing from the description of the basic chemistry and physics of elastomers and elasticity theories, just arriving to a complete overview on the most used rubber materials and thermoplastic elastomers.
