Kurzbeschreibung This book provides state-of-the-art technical and research information on the complex relationship between the plastic/polymer industry and the environment. The primary focus will examine those applications of plastic/polymer associated with negative environmental impacts, such as VOCs and HAPs in coatings formulations, the contribution of packaging plastics to municipal solid waste problems, and environmental consequences of processing plastics/polymers into textiles.
