The present volume comprises physical data (mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical properties) of three types of specialty thermoplastic materials and provides detailed chemical and process-related information of their behavior in their applications. These materials include fluoroplastics, high-performance engineering thermoplastics, and thermoplastic elastomers. Fluoroplastics are unique polymeric materials, which exhibit exceptional chemical inertness, resistance to elevated temperatures, resistance to ultraviolet radiation, excellent weather resistance, excellent dielectric...

Thermodynamics determines the properties and region of existence of any alloy. Pressure, temperature and composition are the key parameters that dictate its crystal structure, crystallographic data, physical and mechanical properties. Phase diagrams are of utmost importance as overviews of the particularities of any alloying mixture. The present volume presents phase equilibria, thermodynamic and crystallographic data of the binary alloys K-O ... Y-Zr.

The present volume in the New Series of Landolt-Bornstein provides critically evaluated data on phase diagrams, and crystallographic and thermodynamic data of ternary alloy systems. The data for each ternary system are provided in a standard format with text, tables and diagrams. The volume is a standard reference book with selected and easily retrievable data from the fields of physics and chemistry collected by acknowledged international scientists.

The present volume in the New Series of Landolt-Bornstein provides critically evaluated data on phase diagrams, crystallographic and thermodynamic data of ternary alloy systems. Reliable phase diagrams provide materials scientists and engineers with basic information important for fundamental research, development and optimization of materials. The often conflicting literature data have been critically evaluated by Materials Science International Team, MSIT(R), a team working together since many years, and with expertise in a broad range of methods, materials and applications. All...

Handbook of Fluid Dynamics offers balanced coverage of the three traditional areas of fluid dynamics theoretical, computational, and experimental complete with valuable appendices presenting the mathematics of fluid dynamics, tables of dimensionless numbers, and tables of the properties of gases and vapors. Each chapter introduces a different fluid dynamics topic, discusses the pertinent issues, outlines proven techniques for addressing those issues, and supplies useful references for further research.

Covering all major aspects of classical and modern fluid...

People live in indoor environment about 90% of lifetime and an adult inhales about 15 kg air each day, over 75% of the human body’s daily mass intake (air, food, water). Therefore, indoor air quality (IAQ) is very important to human health. This book provides the basic knowledge of IAQ and highlights the research achievements in the past two decades. It covers the following 12 sections: introduction, indoor air chemicals, indoor air particles, measurement and evaluation, source/sink characteristics, indoor chemistry, human exposure to indoor pollutants, health effects and health risk...
