Overview

Surface Coatings is now published in two volumes. Volume 1 deals with raw materials and how they are used; Volume 2 with paints and their application. Since Surface Coatings first appeared in 1974, the industry has undergone dramatic and rapid changes both in direction and emphasis, and this new edition mirrors these changes. The new and expanded format of Surface Coatings makes it an indispensable and up-to-date reference book for the surface coatings industry. In addition, chemists and technologists employed in related industries such as inks, adhesives, ceramics, building, cosmetics, and raw material suppliers, will find it very useful. Individual chapters have been written by acknowledged experts in the relevant industry under the guidance of a special committee set up by the Oil and Colour Chemists' Association, Australia. The book reflects not only their professional expertise but also the many years of vital 'hands-on' experience gained in all facets of the surface coatings industry throughout the industrialised world. The move towards aqueous systems is acknowledged in Volume 1 by doubling the number of chapters on emulsions and adding new chapters on aqueous resins while at the same time still providing an excellent introduction to polymer science, pigments, solvents and additives. This book should be of interest to anyone in the surface coatings industry; chemists and technologists employed in related industries, such as inks, adhesives, ceramics, building, cosmetics, and raw material suppliers.
