<p><i>Fluoroelastomers Handbook</i> is a comprehensive reference on fluoroelastomer chemistry, processing technology, and applications. This is a must-have reference for materials scientists and engineers in the automotive, aerospace, chemical, chemical process, and power generation industries. Covering both physical and mechanical properties of fluoroelastomers, it is useful in addressing daily challenges in the use of these materials, as well as those of long term research and development programs.</p><p>Fluoroelastomers meet rigorous performance requirements in harsh environments, enhancing reliability, safety, and environmental friendliness. Fluoroelastomers are growing as products of choice for critical components such as O-rings, hoses, and seals in hostile fluid and temperature conditions.</p><p>Since the publication of the previous edition in 2005, many new findings and developments in chemistry, technology and applications of fluoroelastomers have taken place. This is the only book with&nbsp;updated information on the manufacturing process, cross-linking chemistry and formulation of compounds, as well as mixing, processing and curing methods. A fully revised chapter is included on applications and examples of fluoroelastomer compounds. Safety, hygiene and disposal standards and guidelines have been updated, and a new chapter has been added to discuss new developments and current trends, helping engineers and materials scientists to stay ahead of the curve.</p><ul><li>The only definitive reference work on fluoroelastomer chemistry, processing technology, and applications</li><li>Helps engineers and materials scientists both with day-to-day challenges of using fluoroelastomers, as well as long term research and development programs</li><li>Includes fully updated chapters on chemistry, manufacture and processing of fluoroelastomers, as well as information on properties, applications and disposal and safety issues</li></ul>
