Lange's Handbook of Chemistry

McGraw-Hill, 1998

Perhaps it would be simplest to begin by stating the ways in which this new edition, the fourth under the aegis of the present editor, has not been changed. It remains the one-volume source of factual information for chemists, both professionals and students—the first place in which to “look it up” on the spot. The aim is to...

Natural and Wood Fibre Reinforcement in Polymers (Rapra Review Reports)

Smithers Rapra Technology, 2002

The use of composite materials dates from centuries ago, when it all started with natural fibres. In ancient Egypt some 3,000 years ago, clay was reinforced by straw to build walls. Later on the natural fibre lost much of its interest.

This report examines the different fibre types available and the current research. The...
