Thermosets: Structure, Properties and Applications, Second Edition reviews both factors affecting thermoset properties and how this understanding can be used to engineer thermosets for particular uses. The book builds on, and updates, the existing review of mechanical and thermal properties, the use of chemorheology to characterize and model thermoset flow behavior, and the role of nanostructures in thermoset toughening. All chapters have been reviewed and updated, and new chapters have been added to reflect ongoing changes and developments in the field of thermosetting materials and the applications of these materials. Applications of thermosets are the focus of the second part of the book, including the use of thermosets in the building and construction industry, aerospace technology, and as insulation materials. Thermoset adhesives, including epoxy resins, acrylates and polyurethanes are also discussed, followed by a review of thermosets for electrical applications. New chapters include coverage of thermoset nanocomposites, recycling issues, and applications such as consumer goods, transportation, energy and defense. With its distinguished editor and international team of expert contributors, the book is an essential guide for engineers, chemists, physicists and polymer scientists involved in the development, production and application of thermosets, but is also a useful review for academic researchers in the field.
