Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A faint scent of chemicals lingers in the air, conjuring visions of bustling factories where the birth of modern materials reshaped industry and design. In the world of industrial chemistry, few subjects have wielded such transformative power as the science and manufacture of synthetic resins. This foundational work delves into the intricate processes that underpin resin manufacturing, illuminating the journey from raw materials to finished polymers with clarity and precision. Whether tracing the origins of industrial polymers or examining the essential chemical engineering materials that drive plastics production, the text offers a rare window into the ingenuity and ambition that fuelled an era of innovation.The pages reveal not only the technical mastery required to synthesise these remarkable substances but also the broader context in which resin applications revolutionised countless aspects of twentieth-century life. Each chapter is steeped in the practical realities of the resin industry, from the careful selection of chemical raw materials to the evolving landscape of synthetic materials. The writing is informed and meticulous, yet remains inviting to both the curious general reader and the discerning collector, drawing on the enduring fascination with polymer chemistry and its impact on modern manufacturing.This book was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions.
