With contributions from leading international experts, thisessential book gives comprehensive coverage of all areas ofmetallocene catalysts and metallocene-based polyolefins includingdetails of the very latest developments.
The manufacture of polyolefins by metallocene catalysts representsa revolution in the polymer industry. The last five years inparticular have seen a dramatic increase in the volume of researchinto metallocenes and the maturing of metallocene technology.
The following areas are covered in this comprehensive book:catalyst structure, comonomer incorporation, polymerizationmechanisms and conditions, reactor configurations, specialproperties, comparison with conventional polyolefins, rheologicaland processing behavior and fields of application.
This is an invaluable book for plastics engineers, polymerchemists, physicists, materials scientists, and all those workingin the plastics manufacturing and processing industries.
