In the first chapter, polymer properties determining its proper selection are discussed. All essential information required for the decision-making process is presented in a clear form in order to provide the reader with the necessary data.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe second chapter contains information aiding in the selection of any required additives. Twenty- three groups of additives are used in PVC processing to improve its properties and obtain the set of product characteristics required by the end-user. Similar to the previous chapter, the information is concise but contains much-needed data to aid the reader.\u003cbr\u003eThe third chapter contains 500 formulations of products belonging to 23 categories derived from characteristic methods of production. Formulations come from recent patents, publications in journals, and from suggestions of raw material suppliers. A broad selection of formulations is used in each category to determine the essential components of formulations used in a particular method of processing, the most important parameters of successful products, troubleshooting information, and suggestions of further sources of information on the method of processing. This part results from a review of thousands of patents, over two thousand of research papers, and information available from manufacturers of polymers and additives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe final chapter contains data on PVC and its products. The data are assigned to one of the following sections: general data and nomenclature, chemical composition and properties, physical properties, mechanical properties, health and safety, environmental information, use and application information. The data are based on information contained in over 1200 research papers and present the most comprehensive set of data on PVC ever assembled.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe concept of this and a companion book (\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/chemtec.org\/proddetail.php?prod=978-1-895198-39-3\"\u003ePVC Degradation \u0026amp; Stabilization\u003c\/a\u003e) is to provide the reader with complete information and data required to formulate successful and durable products or to evaluate his formulations on the background of formulations used by others. For scientists and students, these two books give a complete set of the most up-to-date information, state-of-the-art, and data required for the development of new ideas and learning from a comprehensive review contributed by the author of 5 books on PVC written in the last 25 years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRegulatory agencies, consumer groups, and law enforcement agencies will also find this book invaluable because it contains a realistic composition of products produced today, based on broad research of information which no other available source offers. \u003cbr\u003eThere were many good books published on PVC in the past which are still in use today. Their main drawback is that they contain information which frequently does not apply to today’s products and thus creates confusion which is avoided with these two books: \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/chemtec.org\/proddetail.php?prod=978-1-895198-39-3\"\u003ePVC Degradation \u0026amp;

In the first chapter, polymer properties determining its proper selection are discussed. All essential information required for the decision-making process is presented in a clear form in order to provide the reader with the necessary data.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe second chapter contains information aiding in the selection of any required additives. Twenty- three groups of additives are used in PVC processing to improve its properties and obtain the set of product characteristics required by the end-user. Similar to the previous chapter, the information is concise but contains much-needed data to aid the reader.\u003cbr\u003eThe third chapter contains 500 formulations of products belonging to 23 categories derived from characteristic methods of production. Formulations come from recent patents, publications in journals, and from suggestions of raw material suppliers. A broad selection of formulations is used in each category to determine the essential components of formulations used in a particular method of processing, the most important parameters of successful products, troubleshooting information, and suggestions of further sources of information on the method of processing. This part results from a review of thousands of patents, over two thousand of research papers, and information available from manufacturers of polymers and additives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe final chapter contains data on PVC and its products. The data are assigned to one of the following sections: general data and nomenclature, chemical composition and properties, physical properties, mechanical properties, health and safety, environmental information, use and application information. The data are based on information contained in over 1200 research papers and present the most comprehensive set of data on PVC ever assembled.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe concept of this and a companion book (\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/chemtec.org\/proddetail.php?prod=978-1-895198-39-3\"\u003ePVC Degradation \u0026amp; Stabilization\u003c\/a\u003e) is to provide the reader with complete information and data required to formulate successful and durable products or to evaluate his formulations on the background of formulations used by others. For scientists and students, these two books give a complete set of the most up-to-date information, state-of-the-art, and data required for the development of new ideas and learning from a comprehensive review contributed by the author of 5 books on PVC written in the last 25 years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRegulatory agencies, consumer groups, and law enforcement agencies will also find this book invaluable because it contains a realistic composition of products produced today, based on broad research of information which no other available source offers. \u003cbr\u003eThere were many good books published on PVC in the past which are still in use today. Their main drawback is that they contain information which frequently does not apply to today’s products and thus creates confusion which is avoided with these two books: \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/chemtec.org\/proddetail.php?prod=978-1-895198-39-3\"\u003ePVC Degradation \u0026amp;

In the first introductory chapter, the new product development and product re-engineering tools and the market for PVC products are discussed. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the second chapter, polymer properties determining its proper selection are discussed. Commercial types and grades, polymer forms, and physical-chemical properties of PVC are discussed in detail. All essential information required for the decision-making process is presented in a clear form in order to provide the reader with the necessary data.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe third chapter contains information aiding in the selection of any required additives. Twenty-four groups of additives are used in PVC processing to improve its properties and obtain the set of product characteristics required by the end-user. Similar to the previous chapter, the information is concise but contains much-needed data to aid the reader in product development and reformulation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe fourth chapter contains about 600 formulations of products belonging to 23 categories derived from characteristic methods of production. Formulations come from patents, publications in journals, and from suggestions of raw material suppliers. A broad selection of formulations is used in each category to determine the essential components of formulations used in a particular method of processing, the most important parameters of successful products, troubleshooting information, and suggestions of further sources of information on the method of processing. This part results from a review of thousands of patents, over two thousands of research papers, and information available from manufacturers of polymers and additives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe final chapter contains data on PVC and its products. The data are assigned to one of the following sections: general data and nomenclature, chemical composition and properties, physical properties, mechanical properties, health and safety, environmental information, use, and application information. The data are based on information contained in over 1450 research papers and it presents the most comprehensive set of data on PVC ever assembled.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe concept of this and a companion book (PVC Degradation \u0026amp; Stabilization, the new edition will be published in 2015) is to provide the reader with complete information and data required to formulate successful and durable products or to evaluate formulations on the background of compositions used by others. For scientists and students, these two books give a complete set of the most up-to-date information, state-of-the-art, and data required for the development of new ideas and learning from a comprehensive review contributed by the author of 5 books on PVC written in the last 30 years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRegulatory agencies, consumer groups, and law enforcement agencies will also find this book invaluable because it contains a realistic composition of products produced today, based on broad research of information which no other available source offers.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThere were many good books published on PVC in the past which are still in use today. Their main drawback is that they contain information which frequently does not apply to today’s products and thus creates confusion which is avoided with these two books: PVC Degradation \u0026amp; Stabilization and PVC Formulary, which were written with the goal to give the most current information to those who need it today.\n\u003ch5\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h5\u003e\n1 Introduction\u003cbr\u003e2 PVC Properties\u003cbr\u003e2.1 Commercial types and grades \u003cbr\u003e2.1.1 General purpose resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.1.1 Suspension \u003cbr\u003e2.1.1.2 Mass \u003cbr\u003e2.1.2 Dispersion resins (emulsion, microsuspension) \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3 Specialty resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3.1 Powder process resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3.2 Ultrahigh molecular weight resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3.3 Absorptive resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3.4 Deglossing resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3.4 Extender resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.4 Copolymers \u003cbr\u003e2.1.4.1 VC\/VAc copolymers \u003cbr\u003e2.1.4.2 Grafted copolymers \u003cbr\u003e2.2 Forms ready for processing \u003cbr\u003e2.2.1 Powder \u003cbr\u003e2.2.2 Dryblend and pellets \u003cbr\u003e2.2.3 Paste and solution \u003cbr\u003e2.2.4 Latex \u003cbr\u003e2.3 Physical-chemical properties of pure and compounded PVC \u003cbr\u003e2.3.1 Molecular weight and its distribution \u003cbr\u003e2.3.2 Particle size and shape \u003cbr\u003e2.3.3 Porosity \u003cbr\u003e2.3.4 Purity \u003cbr\u003e2.3.5 Density \u003cbr\u003e2.3.6 Crystalline structure, crystallinity, morphology \u003cbr\u003e2.3.7 Thermal properties \u003cbr\u003e2.3.8 Electrical properties \u003cbr\u003e2.3.9 Optical and spectral properties \u003cbr\u003e2.3.10 Shrinkage \u003cbr\u003e2.3.11 Chemical resistance \u003cbr\u003e2.3.12 Environmental stress cracking \u003cbr\u003e2.3.13 Mechanical properties \u003cbr\u003e2.3.14 Other properties of PVC \u003cbr\u003eReferences \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e3 PVC Additives \u003cbr\u003e3.1 Plasticizers \u003cbr\u003e3.2 Fillers \u003cbr\u003e3.3 Pigments and dyes \u003cbr\u003e3.4 Thermal stabilizers \u003cbr\u003e3.5 UV stabilizers \u003cbr\u003e3.6 Impact modifiers \u003cbr\u003e3.7 Antiblocking agents \u003cbr\u003e3.8 Release agents \u003cbr\u003e3.9 Slip agents \u003cbr\u003e3.10 Antistatics \u003cbr\u003e3.11 Flame retardants \u003cbr\u003e3.12 Smoke suppressants \u003cbr\u003e3.13 Lubricants \u003cbr\u003e3.14 Process aids \u003cbr\u003e3.15 Vicat\/HDT modifiers \u003cbr\u003e3.16 Foaming agents and promoters \u003cbr\u003e3.17 Antifog agents \u003cbr\u003e3.18 Crosslinking agents \u003cbr\u003e3.19 Adhesion promoters \u003cbr\u003e3.20 Brighteners \u003cbr\u003e3.21 Biocides and fungicides \u003cbr\u003e3.22 Magnetic additives \u003cbr\u003e3.23 Flexibilizers \u003cbr\u003e3.24 Nucleating agents \u003cbr\u003eReferences \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e4 The PVC Formulations \u003cbr\u003e4.1 Blow molding \u003cbr\u003e4.1.1 Bottles and containers \u003cbr\u003e4.1.2 Other products \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.2 Calendering \u003cbr\u003e4.2.2 Floor coverings \u003cbr\u003e4.2.3 Pool liner \u003cbr\u003e4.2.4 Roofing membrane \u003cbr\u003e4.2.5 Sheet \u003cbr\u003e4.2.6 Sponged leather \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.3 Composites \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks 8\u003cbr\u003e4.4 Dip coating \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.5 Extrusion \u003cbr\u003e4.5.1 General section \u003cbr\u003e4.5.2 Blinds \u003cbr\u003e4.5.3 Clear compound \u003cbr\u003e4.5.4 Gaskets \u003cbr\u003e4.5.5 Fencing \u003cbr\u003e4.5.6 Interior profiles \u003cbr\u003e4.5.7 Pipes \u003cbr\u003e4.5.8 Planks \u003cbr\u003e4.5.9 Rigid articles \u003cbr\u003e4.5.10 Sheet \u003cbr\u003e4.5.11 Siding \u003cbr\u003e4.5.12 Tubing \u003cbr\u003e4.5.13 Water stop seal \u003cbr\u003e4.5.14 Window and door profile \u003cbr\u003e4.5.15 Other products \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.6 Fiber and thread coating \u003cbr\u003e4.7 Film production \u003cbr\u003e4.7.1 Film \u003cbr\u003e4.7.2 Food wrap \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.8 Foaming and foam extrusion \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.9 Gel \u0026amp;

Their main drawback is that they contain information which frequently does not apply to today’s products and thus creates confusion which is avoided with these two books: PVC Degradation \u0026amp; Stabilization and PVC Formulary, which were written with the goal to give the most current information to those who need it today.\n\u003ch5\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h5\u003e\n1 Introduction\u003cbr\u003e2 PVC Properties\u003cbr\u003e2.1 Commercial types and grades \u003cbr\u003e2.1.1 General purpose resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.1.1 Suspension \u003cbr\u003e2.1.1.2 Mass \u003cbr\u003e2.1.2 Dispersion resins (emulsion, microsuspension) \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3 Specialty resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3.1 Powder process resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3.2 Ultrahigh molecular weight resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3.3 Absorptive resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3.4 Deglossing resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.3.4 Extender resins \u003cbr\u003e2.1.4 Copolymers \u003cbr\u003e2.1.4.1 VC\/VAc copolymers \u003cbr\u003e2.1.4.2 Grafted copolymers \u003cbr\u003e2.2 Forms ready for processing \u003cbr\u003e2.2.1 Powder \u003cbr\u003e2.2.2 Dryblend and pellets \u003cbr\u003e2.2.3 Paste and solution \u003cbr\u003e2.2.4 Latex \u003cbr\u003e2.3 Physical-chemical properties of pure and compounded PVC \u003cbr\u003e2.3.1 Molecular weight and its distribution \u003cbr\u003e2.3.2 Particle size and shape \u003cbr\u003e2.3.3 Porosity \u003cbr\u003e2.3.4 Purity \u003cbr\u003e2.3.5 Density \u003cbr\u003e2.3.6 Crystalline structure, crystallinity, morphology \u003cbr\u003e2.3.7 Thermal properties \u003cbr\u003e2.3.8 Electrical properties \u003cbr\u003e2.3.9 Optical and spectral properties \u003cbr\u003e2.3.10 Shrinkage \u003cbr\u003e2.3.11 Chemical resistance \u003cbr\u003e2.3.12 Environmental stress cracking \u003cbr\u003e2.3.13 Mechanical properties \u003cbr\u003e2.3.14 Other properties of PVC \u003cbr\u003eReferences \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e3 PVC Additives \u003cbr\u003e3.1 Plasticizers \u003cbr\u003e3.2 Fillers \u003cbr\u003e3.3 Pigments and dyes \u003cbr\u003e3.4 Thermal stabilizers \u003cbr\u003e3.5 UV stabilizers \u003cbr\u003e3.6 Impact modifiers \u003cbr\u003e3.7 Antiblocking agents \u003cbr\u003e3.8 Release agents \u003cbr\u003e3.9 Slip agents \u003cbr\u003e3.10 Antistatics \u003cbr\u003e3.11 Flame retardants \u003cbr\u003e3.12 Smoke suppressants \u003cbr\u003e3.13 Lubricants \u003cbr\u003e3.14 Process aids \u003cbr\u003e3.15 Vicat\/HDT modifiers \u003cbr\u003e3.16 Foaming agents and promoters \u003cbr\u003e3.17 Antifog agents \u003cbr\u003e3.18 Crosslinking agents \u003cbr\u003e3.19 Adhesion promoters \u003cbr\u003e3.20 Brighteners \u003cbr\u003e3.21 Biocides and fungicides \u003cbr\u003e3.22 Magnetic additives \u003cbr\u003e3.23 Flexibilizers \u003cbr\u003e3.24 Nucleating agents \u003cbr\u003eReferences \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e4 The PVC Formulations \u003cbr\u003e4.1 Blow molding \u003cbr\u003e4.1.1 Bottles and containers \u003cbr\u003e4.1.2 Other products \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.2 Calendering \u003cbr\u003e4.2.2 Floor coverings \u003cbr\u003e4.2.3 Pool liner \u003cbr\u003e4.2.4 Roofing membrane \u003cbr\u003e4.2.5 Sheet \u003cbr\u003e4.2.6 Sponged leather \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.3 Composites \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks 8\u003cbr\u003e4.4 Dip coating \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.5 Extrusion \u003cbr\u003e4.5.1 General section \u003cbr\u003e4.5.2 Blinds \u003cbr\u003e4.5.3 Clear compound \u003cbr\u003e4.5.4 Gaskets \u003cbr\u003e4.5.5 Fencing \u003cbr\u003e4.5.6 Interior profiles \u003cbr\u003e4.5.7 Pipes \u003cbr\u003e4.5.8 Planks \u003cbr\u003e4.5.9 Rigid articles \u003cbr\u003e4.5.10 Sheet \u003cbr\u003e4.5.11 Siding \u003cbr\u003e4.5.12 Tubing \u003cbr\u003e4.5.13 Water stop seal \u003cbr\u003e4.5.14 Window and door profile \u003cbr\u003e4.5.15 Other products \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.6 Fiber and thread coating \u003cbr\u003e4.7 Film production \u003cbr\u003e4.7.1 Film \u003cbr\u003e4.7.2 Food wrap \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.8 Foaming and foam extrusion \u003cbr\u003eConclusive remarks \u003cbr\u003e4.9 Gel \u0026amp;

In addition to the Handbook, Databook of Nucleating Agents is simultaneously published to give readers comprehensive information on this important subject. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHandbook of Nucleating Agents gives information on how to increase the production rate, modify structure and morphology, improve mechanical performance, and reduce haze of polymeric products with a proper selection of nucleating agents (and\/or the so-called clarifying agents). Handbook of Nucleating Agents brings analyses of important publications found in open and patent literature. Special attention is given to the findings of the last five years which brought many new important developments. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book is divided into 14 chapters each of which concentrates on essential performance of nucleating agents. Chemical origin and related properties of nucleating agents are analyzed in general terms to highlight the differences in their properties. The specific agents are discussed in Databook of Nucleating Agents which is published as a separate book to help in selection of product available in the commercial markets and analyze properties of different products. Information in Databook and Handbook is totally different without any repetition. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe next six chapters of Handbook discuss the most essential theoretical knowledge required for the proper selection and use of nucleating and clarifying agents. These include polymer crystallization in the presence and without nucleating agents, parameters of crystallization, essential influences on the nucleation processes, the measures of nucleation efficiency, the mechanisms of nucleation, and the effective methods of dispersion of nucleating agents. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFollowing three chapters concentrate on the application aspects in different formulations. Here extensive use is being made of patent literature and research papers available for different applications. Discussed are 19 polymer processing methods which require use of nucleating agents, 40 different polymers which are known to use nucleating agents, and 16 groups of commercial products in which nucleating agents found applications. This shows that the modern use nucleating agent is widespread in industry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe last three chapters discuss the effects of nucleating agents on physical and mechanical properties of materials, the most essential analytical techniques used to analyze systems containing nucleating agents, and health and safety in use of nucleating agents.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis important and timely publication(s) should not be missed.

Handbook of Nucleating Agents brings analyses of important publications found in open and patent literature. Special attention is given to the findings of the last five years which brought many new important developments. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book is divided into 14 chapters each of which concentrates on essential performance of nucleating agents. Chemical origin and related properties of nucleating agents are analyzed in general terms to highlight the differences in their properties. The specific agents are discussed in Databook of Nucleating Agents which is published as a separate book to help in selection of product available in the commercial markets and analyze properties of different products. Information in Databook and Handbook is totally different without any repetition. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe next six chapters of Handbook discuss the most essential theoretical knowledge required for the proper selection and use of nucleating and clarifying agents. These include polymer crystallization in the presence and without nucleating agents, parameters of crystallization, essential influences on the nucleation processes, the measures of nucleation efficiency, the mechanisms of nucleation, and the effective methods of dispersion of nucleating agents. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFollowing three chapters concentrate on the application aspects in different formulations. Here extensive use is being made of patent literature and research papers available for different applications. Discussed are 19 polymer processing methods which require use of nucleating agents, 40 different polymers which are known to use nucleating agents, and 16 groups of commercial products in which nucleating agents found applications. This shows that the modern use nucleating agent is widespread in industry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe last three chapters discuss the effects of nucleating agents on physical and mechanical properties of materials, the most essential analytical techniques used to analyze systems containing nucleating agents, and health and safety in use of nucleating agents.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis important and timely publication(s) should not be missed.

Ironically, the expectations from the healing of commercial products are higher than in the case of living things (for example, skin healing leaves scars that would not be acceptable for self-healed phone, watch, radio receiver, etc.) The most up-to-date information presented in this book gives a full account of means, ways, and practical results to prevent discarding products because they were once damaged. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe book has three major sections organized into fifteen chapters. The first section contains a chapter that discusses the well-established mechanisms of self-healing, which can be potentially applied in the development of new materials that have the ability to repair themselves without or with minimal human intervention. All theoretical background required and known to-date to understand these principles is included in this section. The full chapter on chemical and physical changes, which occur during self-healing, is also part of this section. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe second part of this book compares the parameters of different self-healing technological processes. The process parameters discussed include fault detection mechanisms, methods of triggering and tuning off the healing processes, the activation energy of self-healing processes, the means and methods of delivery of the healing substances to the defect locations, self-healing timescale (rate of self-healing), and the extent of self-healing (healing efficiency, recovery of properties, etc.). Each of these topics is discussed in a separate chapter.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe third part is devoted to the mathematical modeling of the processes of self-healing (molecular dynamics simulation), the morphology of healed areas, and the discussion of applying the most important analytical techniques to the evaluation of the self-healing processes.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe final section of the book includes:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Practical advice on the selection of additives for self-healing formulation.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Methods of self-healing of different polymers.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Application of self-healing technology in different groups of products.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis part is based on practical knowledge, the existing patents, the published paper, and useful application notes.

Ironically, the expectations from the healing of commercial products are higher than in the case of living things (for example, skin healing leaves scars that would not be acceptable for self-healed phone, watch, radio receiver, etc.) The most up-to-date information presented in this book gives a full account of means, ways, and practical results to prevent discarding products because they were once damaged. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe book has three major sections organized into fifteen chapters. The first section contains a chapter that discusses the well-established mechanisms of self-healing, which can be potentially applied in the development of new materials that have the ability to repair themselves without or with minimal human intervention. All theoretical background required and known to-date to understand these principles is included in this section. The full chapter on chemical and physical changes, which occur during self-healing, is also part of this section. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe second part of this book compares the parameters of different self-healing technological processes. The process parameters discussed include fault detection mechanisms, methods of triggering and tuning off the healing processes, the activation energy of self-healing processes, the means and methods of delivery of the healing substances to the defect locations, self-healing timescale (rate of self-healing), and the extent of self-healing (healing efficiency, recovery of properties, etc.). Each of these topics is discussed in a separate chapter.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe third part is devoted to the mathematical modeling of the processes of self-healing (molecular dynamics simulation), the morphology of healed areas, and the discussion of applying the most important analytical techniques to the evaluation of the self-healing processes.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe final section of the book includes:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Practical advice on the selection of additives for self-healing formulation.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Methods of self-healing of different polymers.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Application of self-healing technology in different groups of products.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis part is based on practical knowledge, the existing patents, the published paper, and useful application notes.

These \"traditional\" materials were used with little or no chemical conversion. Natural forces determined which materials were durable and which were perishable. Our forebears learned by observing natural effects which materials should be used for long-term use and which were disposable. At the end of their useful life, disposal of the articles caused little environmental impact as these natural products once again became part of nature.\u003cbr\u003eToday we have become engulfed with products and materials made from materials extensively modified from their original, natural state. These modifications are often done in chemically irreversible ways. We want the products to be durable over their useful life but we also want them to be returned to nature when we no longer need them. We hope that their disposal will not cause pollution. We need our water to be pure, our air to be safe to breathe, and our soil to be uncontaminated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConflicts abound. If we are to resolve them and continue to use synthetic materials responsibly, we must plan carefully and gain a complete understanding of how materials will perform and degrade. In particular we must be able to understand how materials weather, what the by-products of weathering are and how materials can be transformed into non-polluting entities either through recycling or natural disposal. Terms such as \"life cycle assessment\", \"recyclable\", \"biodegradable\" and \"lifetime warranty\" slip easily off our tongues. We need to bring weathering testing to the point at which reliable testing and investigative studies can enable us to use these and related terms with complete confidence.\u003cbr\u003eIn spite of the efforts of research groups, standardization organizations and industry, there is much to be done to bring weathering testing to the level that will allow the results to predict the life of materials. There must be a willingness among the involved parties to cooperate and a comprehensive body of information to support their efforts.\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a contribution to the information base to assist the scientific efforts aimed at improving the knowledge of weathering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne aim of this book is to provide a critical overview of methods and findings based on experimental work. Another is to create an awareness of the effect of the combined action of all the weather variables on materials under study.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe introductory chapter outlines experimental design techniques and equipment selection and emphasizes the importance of selecting the basic parameters of weathering including:\u003cbr\u003eUV radiation\u003cbr\u003etemperature of the specimens\u003cbr\u003erainfall and condensed moisture\u003cbr\u003ehumidity\u003cbr\u003epollutants\u003cbr\u003estress\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book is structured to illustrate the importance of these parameters on weathering studies. Throughout the book, the authors attempt to show that weathering is not only dependent on UV radiation but that the overall effect depends on the interplay of all parameters which create a unique sequence of events that will change if the parameters are changed. The lack of correlation between laboratory and outdoor exposure is frequently caused by combinations of factors among which the improper selection of laboratory conditions is prime.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter the introduction we discuss the choices available for outdoor weather testing. This relates laboratory tests to tests outdoors so that there may be correlation with natural conditions. The importance of precise control of both UV spectral intensity, temperature and heat flow is demonstrated in Boxhammer's careful use of available equipment and by studies done on automotive components.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe recent availability of the CIRA filters and the continued use of borosilicate filters now permits accurate duplication of solar radiation. The chapter by Summers and Rabinovitch shows how radiation wavelength impacts the performance of several polymers. The manufacturers of weathering equipment can perfectly simulate the solar spectrum. Researchers now must take advantage of these developments. We show that failure to duplicate the solar spectrum invalidates the experiment. The failure is caused by energy input, temperature, moisture, and radiative effects. These parameters should not differ in the experiment from that of natural exposure.\u003cbr\u003eWe compare the two most common artificial light sources - xenon arc and fluorescent lamps. The automotive, textile, polymer and stabilizer industries use xenon arc which gives the full spectrum of solar radiation (UV, visible, and near infrared). The use of fluorescent lamps, which lack the spectral range of the xenon arc, should be discouraged except in special cases where the known mechanisms for degradation are triggered only by radiation between 295 nm to 350 nm. Several industries report problems stemming from studies done with fluorescent lamps which fail to correlate with actual outdoor exposure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWater spray during weathering studies has often been neglected. The reported work on co-polyester sheeting shows how complex material changes can be in the presence of water. More work is urgently needed to determine how humidity and condensation influence material degradation. Two contributions from the Edison Welding Institute have been included to demonstrate the effect of infrared energy and how different materials absorb this energy differently. In particular, the inclusion of pigments complicates infrared absorption. The chapter by Hardcastle shows how an evaluation of performance requirements helps to define a method of predicting the maximum allowable service temperature of vinyls based on measurements of their solar reflectance.\u003cbr\u003eProducts in service operate under mechanical stress due both to residual stresses developed during the forming process and to external stress in use. It has long been recognized that stress affects weathering but little has been done to evaluate the effect. Two chapters by White et al. propose methods of evaluating the effects of stress in weathering studies. These effects are complex since the initial stress distribution changes during exposure and this requires a knowledge of the kinetics of these changes. A similar situation exists with respect to the effects of pollutants. We know they influence weathering but there are few studies that assess their influence. Paterna et al. examine gas fading of automotive components in the presence of nitrous oxides. More elaborate techniques must be developed to evaluate the combined effects of UV radiation, moisture, temperature and pollutants on products to simulate outdoor applications. It is unrealistic to study these influencing factors independently.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo studies on the effects of high energy radiation have been included to demonstrate well defined projects which evaluated material failures and determined the activation energies of the degradation process for many materials, explained why degradation occurred in industrial sterilization, and determined how such degradation might be prevented.\u003cbr\u003eAssessment of automotive clearcoats and nanocomposites show that current test methods are sufficiently accurate, sensitive and suitable to detect degradation at an early stage of exposure. This is another area where more investigative work is needed. The benefit of this approach lies in gaining information early in the product development process using the equivalent of natural conditions without depending on the use of high energy radiation, often employed in accelerated testing, which causes degradation mechanisms which would not normally occur.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeveral contributors emphasize other complexities which must be dealt with in weathering studies. The materials themselves are complex. Many contain additives which interact with the host, the substrates and one another in a weathering situation. Conclusions may err if they are based on an inaccurate knowledge of the real composition of the material under study. Even the manufacturer may be unaware of the true composition as composite additives may have proprietary compositions which are not disclosed. Many fundamental studies are needed to investigate the interactions of multi-component systems and to unravel the effects of processing aids which may be added without knowledge of their effects or interactions. Such practices may lead to unexpected and possibly, catastrophic, failures which would remain undetected in routine research and quality control operations.\u003cbr\u003eThe stabilizer manufacturers have, as an industry, made a significant contribution to weathering testing methods. There are several chapters from these sources. They show that their reports to their customers are meticulous in relating the results of evaluations to the conditions of the test. Their approach is conservative in selecting both equipment and test conditions. The tests are expensive. They must relate to the real conditions of use and results should be comparable to those of prior tests. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book concludes with an example of the type of ground work and planning that is required before routine analysis begins. Using work on automotive clearcoats, we demonstrate how information must be analyzed and categorized to provide a rationale for testing, defining performance requirements, exposure conditions, mechanisms of degradation and how best to observe and measure the changes in specimens. Information gleaned from field performance is used to determine the appropriate laboratory simulations. If this preparatory work is not done the subsequent testing efforts are unlikely to yield useful data and be of little use in predicting future product performance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne final comment. Manufacturers must operate to meet economic goals. Industry as a whole is becoming increasingly competitive and is continually seeking ways to rationalize production methods to improve economics. Materials from different industries compete for the same markets. Durability has become one of the most important characteristics. The product is either made from an inherently durable material or it receives an external coating which gives the required durability. The first approach is more consistent with recycling processes which generally have difficulty in dealing with multi-component mixtures. As the understanding of weathering increases we may learn how to more frequently select a durable substrate which will not require the complication and cost (initial and recycling) of a surface coating. The economic answer would seem to lie in making the investment in weathering research to avoid the costs of material replacement and material failures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONTENTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Preface\u003cbr\u003e• Basic Parameters in Weathering Studies\u003cbr\u003e• Choices in the Design of Outdoor Weathering Tests\u003cbr\u003e• A Comparison of New and Established Accelerated Weathering Devices in Aging Studies of Polymeric Materials at Elevated Irradiance and Temperature\u003cbr\u003e• Current Status of Light and Weather Fastness Standards—New Equipment Technologies, Operating Procedures and Application of Standard Reference Materials\u003cbr\u003e• Weatherability of Vinyl and Other Plastics\u003cbr\u003e• Aging Conditions' Effect on UV Durability\u003cbr\u003e• Molecular Weight Loss and Chemical Changes in Copolyester Sheeting with Outdoor Exposure\u003cbr\u003e• Fourier Transform Infrared Micro Spectroscopy: Mapping Studies of Weather PVC Capstock Type Formulations\u003cbr\u003eII: Outdoor Weathering in Pennsylvania\u003cbr\u003e• Effects of Water Spray and Irradiance Level on Changes in Copolyester Sheeting with Xenon Arc Exposure\u003cbr\u003e• Hot Water Resistance of Glass Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastics\u003cbr\u003eSurface Temperatures and Temperature Measurement Techniques on the Level of Exposed Samples during Irradiation\/Weathering in Equipment\u003cbr\u003e• Infrared Welding of Thermoplastics: Characterization of Transmission Behavior of Eleven Thermoplastics\u003cbr\u003e• Infrared Welding of Thermoplastics\u003cbr\u003e• Colored Pigments and Carbon Black Levels on Transmission of Infrared Radiation\u003cbr\u003e• Predicting Maximum Field Service Temperatures from Solar Reflectance Measurements of Vinyl\u003cbr\u003e• Residual Stress Distribution Modification Caused by Weathering\u003cbr\u003e• Residual Stress Development in Marine Coatings under Simulated Service Conditions\u003cbr\u003e• Balancing the Color and Physical Property Retention of Polyolefins Through the Use of High Performance Stabilizer Systems\u003cbr\u003e• Activation Energies of Polymer Degradation\u003cbr\u003e• Failure Progression and Mechanisms of Irradiated Polypropylenes and Other Medical Polymers\u003cbr\u003e• Chemical Assessment of Automotive Clearcoat Weathering\u003cbr\u003e• Effect of Aging on Mineral-Filled Nanocomposites\u003cbr\u003e• The Influence of Degraded, Recycled PP on Incompatible Blends\u003cbr\u003e• Interactions of Hindered Amine Stabilizers in Acidic and Alkaline Environments\u003cbr\u003e• Interactions of Pesticides and Stabilizers in PE Films for Agricultural Use\u003cbr\u003e• The Influence of Co-Additive Interactions on Stabilizer Performance\u003cbr\u003e• New High Performance Light Stabilizer Systems for Molded-in Color TPOs: An Update\u003cbr\u003e• Stabilization of Polyolefins by Photoreactive Light Stabilizers\u003cbr\u003e• Effect of Stabilizer on Photo-Degradation Depth Profile\u003cbr\u003e• New Light Stabilizer for Coextruded Polycarbonate Sheet\u003cbr\u003e• Ultraviolet Light Resistance of Vinyl Miniblinds\u003cbr\u003e• Reaction Products Formed by Lead in Air\u003cbr\u003e• Case Studies of Inadvertent Interactions between Polymers and Devices in Field Applications\u003cbr\u003e• Automotive Clear Coats\u003cbr\u003e• Index\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAbout Author\u003c\/h5\u003e\nGeorge Wypych has a Ph.

These \"traditional\" materials were used with little or no chemical conversion. Natural forces determined which materials were durable and which were perishable. Our forebears learned by observing natural effects which materials should be used for long-term use and which were disposable. At the end of their useful life, disposal of the articles caused little environmental impact as these natural products once again became part of nature.\u003cbr\u003eToday we have become engulfed with products and materials made from materials extensively modified from their original, natural state. These modifications are often done in chemically irreversible ways. We want the products to be durable over their useful life but we also want them to be returned to nature when we no longer need them. We hope that their disposal will not cause pollution. We need our water to be pure, our air to be safe to breathe, and our soil to be uncontaminated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConflicts abound. If we are to resolve them and continue to use synthetic materials responsibly, we must plan carefully and gain a complete understanding of how materials will perform and degrade. In particular we must be able to understand how materials weather, what the by-products of weathering are and how materials can be transformed into non-polluting entities either through recycling or natural disposal. Terms such as \"life cycle assessment\", \"recyclable\", \"biodegradable\" and \"lifetime warranty\" slip easily off our tongues. We need to bring weathering testing to the point at which reliable testing and investigative studies can enable us to use these and related terms with complete confidence.\u003cbr\u003eIn spite of the efforts of research groups, standardization organizations and industry, there is much to be done to bring weathering testing to the level that will allow the results to predict the life of materials. There must be a willingness among the involved parties to cooperate and a comprehensive body of information to support their efforts.\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a contribution to the information base to assist the scientific efforts aimed at improving the knowledge of weathering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne aim of this book is to provide a critical overview of methods and findings based on experimental work. Another is to create an awareness of the effect of the combined action of all the weather variables on materials under study.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe introductory chapter outlines experimental design techniques and equipment selection and emphasizes the importance of selecting the basic parameters of weathering including:\u003cbr\u003eUV radiation\u003cbr\u003etemperature of the specimens\u003cbr\u003erainfall and condensed moisture\u003cbr\u003ehumidity\u003cbr\u003epollutants\u003cbr\u003estress\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book is structured to illustrate the importance of these parameters on weathering studies. Throughout the book, the authors attempt to show that weathering is not only dependent on UV radiation but that the overall effect depends on the interplay of all parameters which create a unique sequence of events that will change if the parameters are changed. The lack of correlation between laboratory and outdoor exposure is frequently caused by combinations of factors among which the improper selection of laboratory conditions is prime.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter the introduction we discuss the choices available for outdoor weather testing. This relates laboratory tests to tests outdoors so that there may be correlation with natural conditions. The importance of precise control of both UV spectral intensity, temperature and heat flow is demonstrated in Boxhammer's careful use of available equipment and by studies done on automotive components.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe recent availability of the CIRA filters and the continued use of borosilicate filters now permits accurate duplication of solar radiation. The chapter by Summers and Rabinovitch shows how radiation wavelength impacts the performance of several polymers. The manufacturers of weathering equipment can perfectly simulate the solar spectrum. Researchers now must take advantage of these developments. We show that failure to duplicate the solar spectrum invalidates the experiment. The failure is caused by energy input, temperature, moisture, and radiative effects. These parameters should not differ in the experiment from that of natural exposure.\u003cbr\u003eWe compare the two most common artificial light sources - xenon arc and fluorescent lamps. The automotive, textile, polymer and stabilizer industries use xenon arc which gives the full spectrum of solar radiation (UV, visible, and near infrared). The use of fluorescent lamps, which lack the spectral range of the xenon arc, should be discouraged except in special cases where the known mechanisms for degradation are triggered only by radiation between 295 nm to 350 nm. Several industries report problems stemming from studies done with fluorescent lamps which fail to correlate with actual outdoor exposure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWater spray during weathering studies has often been neglected. The reported work on co-polyester sheeting shows how complex material changes can be in the presence of water. More work is urgently needed to determine how humidity and condensation influence material degradation. Two contributions from the Edison Welding Institute have been included to demonstrate the effect of infrared energy and how different materials absorb this energy differently. In particular, the inclusion of pigments complicates infrared absorption. The chapter by Hardcastle shows how an evaluation of performance requirements helps to define a method of predicting the maximum allowable service temperature of vinyls based on measurements of their solar reflectance.\u003cbr\u003eProducts in service operate under mechanical stress due both to residual stresses developed during the forming process and to external stress in use. It has long been recognized that stress affects weathering but little has been done to evaluate the effect. Two chapters by White et al. propose methods of evaluating the effects of stress in weathering studies. These effects are complex since the initial stress distribution changes during exposure and this requires a knowledge of the kinetics of these changes. A similar situation exists with respect to the effects of pollutants. We know they influence weathering but there are few studies that assess their influence. Paterna et al. examine gas fading of automotive components in the presence of nitrous oxides. More elaborate techniques must be developed to evaluate the combined effects of UV radiation, moisture, temperature and pollutants on products to simulate outdoor applications. It is unrealistic to study these influencing factors independently.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo studies on the effects of high energy radiation have been included to demonstrate well defined projects which evaluated material failures and determined the activation energies of the degradation process for many materials, explained why degradation occurred in industrial sterilization, and determined how such degradation might be prevented.\u003cbr\u003eAssessment of automotive clearcoats and nanocomposites show that current test methods are sufficiently accurate, sensitive and suitable to detect degradation at an early stage of exposure. This is another area where more investigative work is needed. The benefit of this approach lies in gaining information early in the product development process using the equivalent of natural conditions without depending on the use of high energy radiation, often employed in accelerated testing, which causes degradation mechanisms which would not normally occur.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeveral contributors emphasize other complexities which must be dealt with in weathering studies. The materials themselves are complex. Many contain additives which interact with the host, the substrates and one another in a weathering situation. Conclusions may err if they are based on an inaccurate knowledge of the real composition of the material under study. Even the manufacturer may be unaware of the true composition as composite additives may have proprietary compositions which are not disclosed. Many fundamental studies are needed to investigate the interactions of multi-component systems and to unravel the effects of processing aids which may be added without knowledge of their effects or interactions. Such practices may lead to unexpected and possibly, catastrophic, failures which would remain undetected in routine research and quality control operations.\u003cbr\u003eThe stabilizer manufacturers have, as an industry, made a significant contribution to weathering testing methods. There are several chapters from these sources. They show that their reports to their customers are meticulous in relating the results of evaluations to the conditions of the test. Their approach is conservative in selecting both equipment and test conditions. The tests are expensive. They must relate to the real conditions of use and results should be comparable to those of prior tests. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book concludes with an example of the type of ground work and planning that is required before routine analysis begins. Using work on automotive clearcoats, we demonstrate how information must be analyzed and categorized to provide a rationale for testing, defining performance requirements, exposure conditions, mechanisms of degradation and how best to observe and measure the changes in specimens. Information gleaned from field performance is used to determine the appropriate laboratory simulations. If this preparatory work is not done the subsequent testing efforts are unlikely to yield useful data and be of little use in predicting future product performance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne final comment. Manufacturers must operate to meet economic goals. Industry as a whole is becoming increasingly competitive and is continually seeking ways to rationalize production methods to improve economics. Materials from different industries compete for the same markets. Durability has become one of the most important characteristics. The product is either made from an inherently durable material or it receives an external coating which gives the required durability. The first approach is more consistent with recycling processes which generally have difficulty in dealing with multi-component mixtures. As the understanding of weathering increases we may learn how to more frequently select a durable substrate which will not require the complication and cost (initial and recycling) of a surface coating. The economic answer would seem to lie in making the investment in weathering research to avoid the costs of material replacement and material failures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONTENTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Preface\u003cbr\u003e• Basic Parameters in Weathering Studies\u003cbr\u003e• Choices in the Design of Outdoor Weathering Tests\u003cbr\u003e• A Comparison of New and Established Accelerated Weathering Devices in Aging Studies of Polymeric Materials at Elevated Irradiance and Temperature\u003cbr\u003e• Current Status of Light and Weather Fastness Standards—New Equipment Technologies, Operating Procedures and Application of Standard Reference Materials\u003cbr\u003e• Weatherability of Vinyl and Other Plastics\u003cbr\u003e• Aging Conditions' Effect on UV Durability\u003cbr\u003e• Molecular Weight Loss and Chemical Changes in Copolyester Sheeting with Outdoor Exposure\u003cbr\u003e• Fourier Transform Infrared Micro Spectroscopy: Mapping Studies of Weather PVC Capstock Type Formulations\u003cbr\u003eII: Outdoor Weathering in Pennsylvania\u003cbr\u003e• Effects of Water Spray and Irradiance Level on Changes in Copolyester Sheeting with Xenon Arc Exposure\u003cbr\u003e• Hot Water Resistance of Glass Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastics\u003cbr\u003eSurface Temperatures and Temperature Measurement Techniques on the Level of Exposed Samples during Irradiation\/Weathering in Equipment\u003cbr\u003e• Infrared Welding of Thermoplastics: Characterization of Transmission Behavior of Eleven Thermoplastics\u003cbr\u003e• Infrared Welding of Thermoplastics\u003cbr\u003e• Colored Pigments and Carbon Black Levels on Transmission of Infrared Radiation\u003cbr\u003e• Predicting Maximum Field Service Temperatures from Solar Reflectance Measurements of Vinyl\u003cbr\u003e• Residual Stress Distribution Modification Caused by Weathering\u003cbr\u003e• Residual Stress Development in Marine Coatings under Simulated Service Conditions\u003cbr\u003e• Balancing the Color and Physical Property Retention of Polyolefins Through the Use of High Performance Stabilizer Systems\u003cbr\u003e• Activation Energies of Polymer Degradation\u003cbr\u003e• Failure Progression and Mechanisms of Irradiated Polypropylenes and Other Medical Polymers\u003cbr\u003e• Chemical Assessment of Automotive Clearcoat Weathering\u003cbr\u003e• Effect of Aging on Mineral-Filled Nanocomposites\u003cbr\u003e• The Influence of Degraded, Recycled PP on Incompatible Blends\u003cbr\u003e• Interactions of Hindered Amine Stabilizers in Acidic and Alkaline Environments\u003cbr\u003e• Interactions of Pesticides and Stabilizers in PE Films for Agricultural Use\u003cbr\u003e• The Influence of Co-Additive Interactions on Stabilizer Performance\u003cbr\u003e• New High Performance Light Stabilizer Systems for Molded-in Color TPOs: An Update\u003cbr\u003e• Stabilization of Polyolefins by Photoreactive Light Stabilizers\u003cbr\u003e• Effect of Stabilizer on Photo-Degradation Depth Profile\u003cbr\u003e• New Light Stabilizer for Coextruded Polycarbonate Sheet\u003cbr\u003e• Ultraviolet Light Resistance of Vinyl Miniblinds\u003cbr\u003e• Reaction Products Formed by Lead in Air\u003cbr\u003e• Case Studies of Inadvertent Interactions between Polymers and Devices in Field Applications\u003cbr\u003e• Automotive Clear Coats\u003cbr\u003e• Index\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAbout Author\u003c\/h5\u003e\nGeorge Wypych has a Ph.
