It evolved from the ancient art of glass blowing and it is used to particular advantage with plastic materials. Celluloid was used first to blow mould baby rattles and novelties in the 1930s, linear low-density polyethylene was used in the 1940s for high production bottles and these days polyethylene terephthalate is used to make anything from soda bottles to highly sophisticated multilayered containers and automotive fuel tanks in the last decade. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen designing a product it is important to consider aspects such as a material's characteristics, the processing methods available, the assembly and finishing procedures, and the life cycle and expected performance of the product. This book presents the basics of blow moulding as well as the latest state-of-the-art and science of the industry. A key feature is the approach of discussing the ‘basics’ and then taking the reader through the entire process from design development through to final production. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is very important for those involved in the manufacturing operation to keep abreast of the advances that are being made. This book will be of interest to those already using the blow moulding process and those who are interested in the potential offered by this versatile

It evolved from the ancient art of glass blowing and it is used to particular advantage with plastic materials. Celluloid was used first to blow mould baby rattles and novelties in the 1930s, linear low-density polyethylene was used in the 1940s for high production bottles and these days polyethylene terephthalate is used to make anything from soda bottles to highly sophisticated multilayered containers and automotive fuel tanks in the last decade. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen designing a product it is important to consider aspects such as a material's characteristics, the processing methods available, the assembly and finishing procedures, and the life cycle and expected performance of the product. This book presents the basics of blow moulding as well as the latest state-of-the-art and science of the industry. A key feature is the approach of discussing the ‘basics’ and then taking the reader through the entire process from design development through to final production. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is very important for those involved in the manufacturing operation to keep abreast of the advances that are being made. This book will be of interest to those already using the blow moulding process and those who are interested in the potential offered by this versatile technology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h5\u003e\n1 What is Blow Moulding?\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Introduction\u003cbr\u003e1.1.1 Definition\u003cbr\u003e1.1.2 Basic

The reason for such activity is due to the finite nature of traditional petrochemical derived compounds in addition to economic and environmental considerations. Thus a key goal of the coming years will be the development of sustainable raw materials for the chemical industry that will replace current fossil-based feedstocks. The challenge for researchers is to develop natural and man-made synthetics that would reduce the emission of gases. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book gives a thorough overview of the manufacture and uses of low environmental impact polymers. This book will provide information for the experienced user of polymers wanting to use biodegradable materials and also be useful to designers, specifiers, end users and waste

Polymer materials have been steadily replacing traditional materials in this sector. Construction applications of plastics include pipes and guttering, window and door profiles, glazing, roofing, sealants and adhesives, cement, insulation, flooring and building panels. Civil engineering applications include geomembranes, road and sports surfaces, building reinforcement and bridge building. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a critical market for plastics. Around 60% of all PVC production is now used in this sector, applications include profiles for windows and doors, fascias, pipes and pipe fittings. Polystyrene is also used extensively, primarily in insulation applications. Around 1.85 million tons of high density polyethylene are used annually in construction, amounting to roughly 10% of total global consumption. Low density polyethylene, polyurethane, and polypropylene are also used extensively. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Western Europe alone in 1998 6.4 million tonnes of plastics were used in construction. The value of the plastics pipes market in the same year was estimated at 11 million euros and the growth rate is predicted to be 4% per annum in Europe. PVC accounts for 60% of the pipe market with polyolefins at 27% and growing. Alternative materials such as ABS and polyvinylidene fluoride are also being used, particularly in industrial sectors. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe growth rate for plastics consumption in building and construction in the US averaged 8% per annum from 1995 to 1998. Figures for the US housing industry showed an increase in the number of new housing starts in June 2001 at 1.658 million units, 6.3% higher than in June 2000. Other factors that influence plastics consumption are refurbishment and DIY projects. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eComposite materials are being used for load bearing in construction applications. Foamed wood\/plastic composites are a growing market in applications such as decking in North America. Demand is projected to be around 600,000 tons in 2005. There is potential for using recycled materials in composites. Plastic lumber decking is commonly made using recycled HDPE. Recycled plastics are also being used in a cement matrix. Polymeric fibres can also be used to reinforce cement and materials are being developed with ductility values equal to those of metals for applications such as runway surfaces, floors, and pavements. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnvironmental concerns are affecting the building industry in many ways. Recycling methods are being developed for plastic building components. Methods of using recycled material in construction are under trial. The housing itself is being redesigned to minimise usage of fossil fuels, which is leading to an increased requirement for insulation and the development of alternative means of heating such as solar panels and geothermal heating. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePolymers in Building and Construction examines the extensive markets for polymers by material and also by application, listing key players in these fields and new developments.

Polymer materials have been steadily replacing traditional materials in this sector. Construction applications of plastics include pipes and guttering, window and door profiles, glazing, roofing, sealants and adhesives, cement, insulation, flooring and building panels. Civil engineering applications include geomembranes, road and sports surfaces, building reinforcement and bridge building. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a critical market for plastics. Around 60% of all PVC production is now used in this sector, applications include profiles for windows and doors, fascias, pipes and pipe fittings. Polystyrene is also used extensively, primarily in insulation applications. Around 1.85 million tons of high density polyethylene are used annually in construction, amounting to roughly 10% of total global consumption. Low density polyethylene, polyurethane, and polypropylene are also used extensively. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Western Europe alone in 1998 6.4 million tonnes of plastics were used in construction. The value of the plastics pipes market in the same year was estimated at 11 million euros and the growth rate is predicted to be 4% per annum in Europe. PVC accounts for 60% of the pipe market with polyolefins at 27% and growing. Alternative materials such as ABS and polyvinylidene fluoride are also being used, particularly in industrial sectors. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe growth rate for plastics consumption in building and construction in the US averaged 8% per annum from 1995 to 1998. Figures for the US housing industry showed an increase in the number of new housing starts in June 2001 at 1.658 million units, 6.3% higher than in June 2000. Other factors that influence plastics consumption are refurbishment and DIY projects. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eComposite materials are being used for load bearing in construction applications. Foamed wood\/plastic composites are a growing market in applications such as decking in North America. Demand is projected to be around 600,000 tons in 2005. There is potential for using recycled materials in composites. Plastic lumber decking is commonly made using recycled HDPE. Recycled plastics are also being used in a cement matrix. Polymeric fibres can also be used to reinforce cement and materials are being developed with ductility values equal to those of metals for applications such as runway surfaces, floors, and pavements. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnvironmental concerns are affecting the building industry in many ways. Recycling methods are being developed for plastic building components. Methods of using recycled material in construction are under trial. The housing itself is being redesigned to minimise usage of fossil fuels, which is leading to an increased requirement for insulation and the development of alternative means of heating such as solar panels and geothermal heating. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePolymers in Building and Construction examines the extensive markets for polymers by material and also by application, listing key players in these fields and new developments.

This review sets out to describe the types of flame retardants available, mechanisms of action and uses. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are many new regulations being issued on health, safety, and the environment. These have affected the flame retardant industry and influence the choice of the chemical in many applications. There has been particular concern about the use of brominated chemicals, and this report briefly discusses the environmental benefits versus the possible environmental effects of these materials. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNew chemicals are being developed to improve the flame retardancy of plastics materials and these are outlined here.

For example, in household appliances, car interiors, cable insulation and computer casings. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe earliest flame retardants comprised vinegar and alum, which were used on wood and textiles. Today there is a much wider range of chemicals available for compounding into plastics materials. This review sets out to describe the types of flame retardants available, mechanisms of action and uses. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are many new regulations being issued on health, safety, and the environment. These have affected the flame retardant industry and influence the choice of the chemical in many applications. There has been particular concern about the use of brominated chemicals, and this report briefly discusses the environmental benefits versus the possible environmental effects of these materials. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNew chemicals are being developed to improve the flame retardancy of plastics materials and these are outlined here. One of the most promising new substances is the class of polymer-clay nanocomposites, which can substantially improve performance at low levels of addition. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis review provides a clear overview of the state-of-the-art of flame retardancy for plastics. It highlights the new developments and the potential problems with the legislation, together with the benefits to end users of protection from fire hazards. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis review is accompanied by around 400 abstracts from papers and books in the Rapra Polymer Library database, to facilitate further reading on this subject.
