This book is containing the preparation process of paint composed mainly from novolac and kaolin as flame retardant material to protect the easily burning surfaces like wood and wood products such as furniture, ceiling and wood building from reaching the ignition temperature when they exposure to the flame temperature about 925 C, for periods of time, depending on the kaolin percent and paint layer thickness. It was also used to protect the non-combustion surfaces from reaching the softening point.The preparation process of the paint, its application, and measured properties were Iraqi...

This book includes the details preparation methods of 3,3,3,3- and 4,4,4,4-tetraaminophthalocyaninatocopper(II) compounds and their grafting process with different prepared polymers. The sizing measurement showed that the grafting process led to decreasing in particle size and increasing in surface area. Optical measurements exhibited an increasing in the energy gap due to grafted polymers compared to ungrafted tetraaminophthalocyaninatocopper(II) and they were affected by their particle sizes. This was also reflected positively on their thermal properties.
