Advances in Polymer Coated Textiles

Güneri Akovali (ed.), Smithers Rapra, Shawbury, Shrewsbury, UK, 2012, 482 p., soft-cover, EUR 120.00, ISBN 978-1-84735-498-3

The book Advances in Polymer Coated Textiles is an up-to-date summary of the technical textile industry, considering the passage from conventional to emerging technologies. It describes the materials commonly used in textile coatings, such as thermoplastic polymers, polyurethanes, natural and synthetic rubbers and elastomers. It discusses the criteria for the selection of coating and textile and summarises the basic features of the manufacturing technology of the system. It explores a range of emerging technologies and applications, including smart, intelligent and nanostructured applications, alongside the testing and quality control methods of such systems. In addition, it presents quality and productivity improvements in rubber-coated textile industries, tools and techniques.
