Expectations of a technological revolution are associated with nanotechnology, and indeed the generation, modification and utilization of objects with tiniest dimensions already permeates science and research in a way that the absence of nanotechnology is no longer conceivable. It has progressed to an independent interdisciplinary field, its great success due to the purposeful combination of physical, mechanical and molecular techniques. This bo ...
Um solide, langzeitbestandige und stoffgerechte Klebungen im industriellen oder handwerklichen Bereich herzustellen, sind sowohl gute Grundlagenkenntnisse als auch fachlich fundiertes Wissen von Noten. Die einzelnen Informationen in der vorhandenen Fachliteratur aufzuspuren, ist au?erst muhsam und zeitraubend. Das vorliegende Handbuch – geschrieben von Spezialisten verschiedener Fachbereiche in Forschung und Industrie – vermittelt das vollstandi ...
Als Kunststoffe werden hochmolekulare Substanzen bezeichnet, aus denen sich mittels geeigneter Verarbeitungsprozesse Formkorper herstellen lassen, die bei Raumtemperatur hart und steif sind. Sie zahlen wie Fasern, Folien, Elastomere, Schaumstoffe, Lacke und Klebstoffe zu der umfangreichen Klasse der Polymerwerkstoffe. Die namhaften Autoren aus Industrie und Hochschulen beschreiben Synthesemethoden, Apparaturen zur Konfektionierung und Verfahren ...
Emphasizing the most recent developments this book addresses both the basic and applied aspects of adhesion. The authors present the latest results on fundamental aspects, adhesion in biology, chemistry for adhesive formulation, surface chemistry and the pretreatment of adherends, mechanical issues, non-destructive testing and the durability of adhesive joints, as well as advanced technical applications of adhesive joints. Prominent scientists r ...
Adsorption promises to play an integral role in several future energy and environmental technologies, including hydrogen storage, CO removal for fuel cell technology, desulfurization of transportation fuels, and technologies for meeting higher standards on air and water pollutants. Ralph Yang's Adsorbents provides a single and comprehensive source of knowledge for all commercial and new sorbent materials, presenting the fundamental principles fo ...
This book documents CCPS's Aerosol Research Program to develop a model to predict liquid rainout from release of a pressurized, liquefied gas–and, hence the residual amount of material in a vapor cloud, which may be greater than the amount calculated from an enthalpy chart. RELEASE predicts the rate of fluid discharge, the depressurization, flashing and formation of liquid drops, the entrainment of drops into the vapor cloud, the subsequent spre ...
