Edited by Jean-Baptiste Donnet, Roop Chand Bansal and Meng-Jiao Wang

Pages: 461, Hardbound

Published: 1993

 

The second edition of this reference provides comprehensive examinations of developments in the processing and applications of carbon black, including the use of new analytical tools such as scanning tunnelling microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and inverse gas chromatography. Completely rewritten and updated by numerous experts in the field to reflect the enormous growth of the field since the publication of the previous edition, Carbon Black:

• discusses the mechanism of carbon black formation based on recent advances such as the discovery of fullerenes
• elucidates micro- and macrostructure morphology and other physical characteristics
• outlines the fractal geometry of carbon black as a new approach to characterization
• reviews the effect of carbon black on the electrical and thermal conductivity of filled polymers
• delineates the applications of carbon black in elastomers, plastics, and zerographic toners,
• and surveys possible health consequences of exposure to carbon black.

With over 1200 literature citations, tables, and figures, this resource is intended for

• physical, polymer, surface and colloid chemists
• chemical and plastics engineers
• spectroscopists
• materials scientists
• occupational safety and health physicians, and
• upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
