An Accessible Guide to Polymer Material Processing? A Review of Plastics Process Analysis, Instrumentation, and Control by J.K. Fink

Abstract

This review examines the newly published book Plastics Process Analysis, Instrumentation, and Control authored by Johannes K. Fink and published by Scrivener Publishing LLC and John Wiley & Sons, Inc. This book examines the last ten years of polymer processing technology and provides a good look at the state-of-the-art in terms of processing techniques, control methods, analysis methods, and known and predicted problems in the processing of these materials. The book is highly accessible and easy to understand for those with basic prior knowledge of polymer processing and manufacturing processes, making it a good resource for both academic research and practical use in manufacturing and design.
