A comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the major mineral and organic fillers for plastics, their production, structure and properties, as well as their applications in terms of primary and secondary functions. Edited and co-authored by Professor Marino Xanthos with contributions by international experts from industry and academia, the book presents methods of mixing/incorporation technologies, surface treatments and modifications for enhanced functionality, an analysis of parameters affecting filler performance and a presentation of current and emerging applications. Additionally, the novel classification according to modification of specific polymer properties rather than filler chemical composition will provide a better understanding of the relationships between processing, structure and properties of products containing functional fillers and the identification of new markets and applications.

For engineers, scientists and technologists involved in the industrially important sector of polymer composites.

"Das vorliegende Buch gibt einen exzellenten Überblick über die wichtigsten Füllstoffklassen, die in der Kunststoffindustrie zur Anwendung kommen. ... Aufgrund der sehr guten Strukturierung der einzelnen Kapitel eignet sich das Buch vorzüglich als Nachschlagewerk; diese Funktion wird unterstützt durch ein gutes Inhaltsverzeichnis und viele aktuelle Literaturzitate. Aufmachung, Druckbild und die zahlreichen Fotos und Tabellen sind von ausgezeichneter Qualität. Insgesamt ist dieses Buch sehr zu empfehlen."

"Eine solche Übersicht, wie sie Marino Xanthos mit weiteren Autoren erstellt hat, bringt deshalb Licht in ein vielfach dunkles Feld der Füllstoffe. (...) Eine Vielzahl von fachlichen Anregungen wird über nunmehr bekannte Füllstofffunktionen zu Lösungen von innovativen Aufgaben geboten und sollte der Fachmann zu nutzen wissen."

Marino Xanthos is Professor of Chemical Engineering and Director of the Polymer Engineering Center of the New Jersey Institute of Technology since 1995. He studied chemical engineering at the University of Toronto, where he took his Ph.D. degree in 1974. He then became Manager of R & D and Technical Services at Marietta Resources International Ltd. in 1975 and taught at the Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, from 1980 to 1995. Since 1988, he has also been Director of Research at the Polymer Processing Institute (PPI), Newark, NJ, an independent non-profit research organization located at NJIT.
His interests focus on polymer blends, composites, and foams, polymer modification and reactive processing, plastics recycling and life-cycle assessment, structure-property relationships, environmental considerations in polymer processing.
