Book Description
Contains the 15 papers presented at the November 1998 symposium sponsored by the materials division of the ASME. The papers are nearly equally divided between the two broad areas of structure-to- property characterization and foam processing. The topics addressed include acoustic, tensile, impact, fracture, and creep behavior of foams. The issues addressed in processing include measurement of gas solubility, approaches to foaming PET, extrusion of microcellular foams and polyethylene foams, and evaluation of blowing agent performance. Two papers discuss the emerging role of porous polymers in biomaterials research. No subject index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
