This report begins by summarising the basis of polymer blending. This includes an outline of the techniques being used to characterise blends including spectroscopic techniques and rheometry. The types of polymer blends which have been studied are outlined. Methods of compatibilisation are discussed. The morphology of the phases in a blend is critical to property development - the types of morphology observed are described. Flow-induced morphology is described. Processing of blends and the effects on morphology are discussed including extrusion, thermoforming, blow moulding, injection moulding and foaming. The accompanying abstracts from the Rapra Polymer Library database provide useful further information and indicate sources of additional material.

This book examines the whole range of modern packaging options. It covers edible packaging based on carbohydrates, proteins, antioxidative and antimicrobial packaging, and the chemistry of food and food packaging, such as plasticization and polymer morphology. Issues related to shelf life and biodegradability are also discussed, in addition to newly discovered processing and preservation techniques, most notably modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and active packaging (AP).

The Handbook of Natural Polymers, Volume Two: Functionalization, Surface Modification, and Properties covers modifications, functionalization, analysis and properties of polymers from natural sources. The book begins by introducing the current state-of-the-art, challenges and opportunities in natural polymers. This is followed by detailed coverage of methods for chemical, physical and surface modifications, and functionalization of natural polymers, including nanocellulose composites, gluten, chitin, alginate, pectin, keratin, shellac, wool, hemicellulose, lignin, natural rubber, albumin, collagen, gelatin, zein, soya protein, silk fibroin, gutta percha and gum. The final chapters explain several other key aspects, such as microscopical and spectroscopical analysis, mechanical, thermal, and more. The book aims to offer potential avenues for the preparation, modification, and implementation of advanced natural polymer-based materials with the desired properties for specific applications. Provides systematic coverage of the latest methods for functionalization, surface modification, and properties' analysis of natural polymers Includes an extensive range of natural polymer sources, including established biopolymers and emerging materials Explores modifications and properties of natural polymers and their related composites, blends, IPNs, gels and nanoparticles

Liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) have a wide range of uses, from strong engineering plastics to delicate gels for use in liquid crystal (LC) displays. For this reason, it is essential reading for materials scientists, engineers or technologists in industry, as well as research laboratories or academia. An additional indexed section containing several hundred abstracts from the Rapra Polymer Library database gives useful references for further reading.

This report presents an overview of the chemical analysis of thermosets. Materials based on thermosets present the analyst with considerable challenges due to their complexity and the wide range of polymer types and additives available. This review sets out to present an introduction to the analytical techniques and methods that are used to characterise and carry out quality control work on thermosets, investigate the failure of thermosets products and to deformulate thermoset compounds. The review is accompanied by around 400 abstracts from papers and books in the Rapra Polymer Library database, to facilitate further reading on this subject.
