The definitive guide to organic coatings, thoroughly revised and updated —
now with coverage of a range of topics not covered in previous editions
Organic Coatings: Science and Technology, Fourth Edition offers unparalleled
coverage of organic coatings technology and its many applications. Written by
three leading industry experts (including a new, internationally-recognized
coatings scientist) it presents a systematic survey of the field, revises and updates
the material from the previous edition, and features new or additional treatment
of such topics as superhydrophobic, ice-phobic, antimicrobial, and self-healing
coatings; sustainability, artist paints, and exterior architectural primers, making it
even more relevant and useful for scientists and engineers in the field, as well as
for students in coatings courses.
The book incorporates up-to-date coverage of recent developments in the field
with detailed discussions of the principles underlying the technology and their
applications in the development, production, and uses of organic coatings. All
chapters in this new edition have been updated to assure consistency and to
enable extensive cross-referencing. The material presented is also applicable to
the related areas of printing inks and adhesives, as well as areas within the
plastics industry.
