Defonseka C. Polymeric Composites with Rice Hulls. An Introduction 2ed 2019

Textbook in PDF format

Polymeric composites with rice hulls have superior properties compared with other polymer composites and are suitable for a wider range of applications. This book explains what it is that makes polymeric composites with rice hulls ideal substitutes for natural wood and how they may help ease global environmental concerns. It is an ideal source of information for researchers, resin-pellet manufacturers, processors and end users.
Provides a wealth of information on raw materials, processing machinery and production technology.
Describes applications for end products, from construction to industrial and domestic uses.
