Summary
About Author

Functional fillers are an important part of today's composite processing technologies. They improve the properties of composites through the creation of a larger interfacial area between the matrix and ffibers and they also provide thermal stability to polymeric matrices. Functional fillers are used extensively in industries such as aerospace, transportation, agriculture, construction, power generation, etc.

The book has two sections: analysis of the chemical composition and morphology of classical fillers (some of over 100 fillers listed in Handbook of Fillers, 5^th Edition), which contributed to the exceptional enhancements in their properties and applications.

Presentation of new generations of fillers which provide designers with special properties not available so far from the classical fillers used by industry. Special groups of fillers discussed in this part of the book include, as follows

Structure

Molecular (e.g., silsesquioxanes)
Carbon dots
Nano
Nanowires
Nanorods
Nanosheets
Nanodiamonds
High aspect ratio
Layered double hydroxides
Functionalized
Encapsulated
Hybrid
Porous

Physical properties

Superlight
High density
Thermally insulating and conductive
Thermal energy storage

Electrical and magnetic properties

Conductive
Insulating
Insulating/conductive mixtures
Dielectric
Magnetic
Magnetodielectric
EMI shielding
Microwave absorption
Piezoresistive
Electrostatic discharge prevention

Applications

Lubricant
Anti-corrosion
Membrane
Osteoconductive and other bone tissue engineering fillers
Tissue fillers
Antimicrobial

Renewable and recycling

Biofillers
Biosorbents
Geopolymers
Recycled materials

From the above list, it is pertinent that chemical modifications, structural features, enhanced physical properties, mixtures of fillers, electrical and magnetic properties, special applications corrosion resistance, medicine, dentistry, and antimicrobial, and fillers from renewable resources are the main topics of the book.

Blends of nanoscale fillers and nano-enhanced polymers have been developed for various end uses. This review describes the various types of nanofillers, their chemical compositions and properties, synthesis methods, and morphology. The functionalities of these functional fillers are revealed through their performance in polymer matrices and by integration with nanoparticles. Finally, some applications of functional fillers are highlighted along with a description of some future trends.

The expected audience, as in the case of Handbook of Fillers, includes most branches of the chemical industry (and some other such as pharmaceutical, medicinal, electronics, etc.), considering that these products are common throughout the industry.

The additives that cause these changes include crosslinkers and curatives. Both types of additives are discussed in separate chapters of the book because they substantially differ in the substrates that they convert. Curatives usually react with low molecular monomers, prepolymers, or oligomers whereas crosslinkers are frequently used to convert polymers. Both sections of crosslinker and curatives have a similar structure in which the effect of additives is presented, including the evaluation of chemical and physical properties of curatives or crosslinkers, selection of crosslinkers and curatives for specific polymers, the mechanisms of their action, parameters of crosslinking or curing process, and their effect on the properties of the converted polymers.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe crosslinkers contain are used in 73 polymers and a curative in 13 polymers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThere is a substantial difference in the application of both types of additives. Curatives are in common use in many industrial products manufactured on a large scale, such as for example adhesives, sealants, coatings, inks, explosives, propellants, or foams. They are also used in some emerging products such as optoelectronics, shape-memory applications, light-emitting diodes, liquid crystal displays, self-healing materials, etc. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eCrosslinkers are also used in typical industrial processing methods including encapsulation of solar cells, vulcanization, adhesives, foams, roofing, etc. But their strength and future are more focused on emerging applications such as drug release, artificial muscles in microdevices, autonomous shape-memory actuators, hygienic textiles, membranes, scaffolds, recycling, sensors, and tissue adhesives or wound dressing, just to mention some.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eBoth groups of additives are very important in industrial applications, and we are hoping that this volume will find a broad readership, especially considering that it is the first book ever published on this subject in English literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eReaders of this book may find it interesting that \u003cb\u003eDatabook of Curatives and Crosslinkers\u003c\/b\u003e is published at the same time to provide information on the properties of both commercial and generic chemical products used as curatives and crosslinkers.

This authoritative work presents everything needed to produce strong and durable elastomers, using the best curatives and crosslinkers on the market now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis book contains the most up-to-date information on additives that convert soluble monomers, prepolymers, or polymers to insoluble polymer networks popularly known as thermosetting polymers. The additives that cause these changes include crosslinkers and curatives. Both types of additives are discussed in separate chapters of the book because they substantially differ in the substrates that they convert. Curatives usually react with low molecular monomers, prepolymers, or oligomers whereas crosslinkers are frequently used to convert polymers. Both sections of crosslinker and curatives have a similar structure in which the effect of additives is presented, including the evaluation of chemical and physical properties of curatives or crosslinkers, selection of crosslinkers and curatives for specific polymers, the mechanisms of their action, parameters of crosslinking or curing process, and their effect on the properties of the converted polymers.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe crosslinkers contain are used in 73 polymers and a curative in 13 polymers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThere is a substantial difference in the application of both types of additives. Curatives are in common use in many industrial products manufactured on a large scale, such as for example adhesives, sealants, coatings, inks, explosives, propellants, or foams. They are also used in some emerging products such as optoelectronics, shape-memory applications, light-emitting diodes, liquid crystal displays, self-healing materials, etc. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eCrosslinkers are also used in typical industrial processing methods including encapsulation of solar cells, vulcanization, adhesives, foams, roofing, etc. But their strength and future are more focused on emerging applications such as drug release, artificial muscles in microdevices, autonomous shape-memory actuators, hygienic textiles, membranes, scaffolds, recycling, sensors, and tissue adhesives or wound dressing, just to mention some.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eBoth groups of additives are very important in industrial applications, and we are hoping that this volume will find a broad readership, especially considering that it is the first book ever published on this subject in English literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eReaders of this book may find it interesting that \u003cb\u003eDatabook of Curatives and Crosslinkers\u003c\/b\u003e is published at the same time to provide information on the properties of both commercial and generic chemical products used as curatives and crosslinkers.
