These two volumes provide the reader with a great depth of understanding and practical knowledge over a very broad range of polymers and polymer processes. (IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine, January/February 2006) This comprehensive work touches on almost everything for commercial polymerization processes. (CHOICE, January 2006) ...the resource fills its broad mission admirably...any institution with people working with polymers in either academic or industrial contexts should find a great deal of use in this resource. (American Reference Books Annual, 2006) The scope of these two volumes leaves your 'breathless' and is a valuable addition as a reference text. (Polymer News, December 2005)
Author Information
Thierry Meyer, born 1961 in Geneva, obtained his MSc at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) in 1985 followed by a PhD in 1989 in chemical engineering in 1989. He joined Ciba-Geigy in 1994 as a development chemist in the pigment division, then was head of development and became production manager in 1998. In 1999 he switched to the Institute of Chemical Sciences and Engineering at EPFL directing the polymer reaction engineering unit. Since 2002, he also serves as the chairman of the working party on polymer reaction engineering of the European Federation of Chemical Engineering. Jos Keurentjes (1963) did his MSc at the Wageningen Agricultural University, followed by a PhD in food engineering at the same university (1991). Subsequently, he joined Akzo Nobel Central Research as a researcher in the department of chemical and physical technology, followed by a position heading separation technology. In 1997 he switched to the Eindhoven University of Technology holding the chair on process development. Starting 2002, he also serves as scientific secretary of the working party on polymer reaction engineering of the European Federation of Chemical Engineering.
