The CRC Handbook of Solubility Parameters and Other Cohesion Parameters, Second Edition, which includes 17 new sections and 40 new data tables, incorporates information from a vast amount of material published over the last ten years. The volume is based on a bibliography of 2,900 reports, including 1,200 new citations. The detailed, careful construction of the handbook develops the concept of solubility parameters from empirical, thermodynamic, and molecular points of view and demonstrates their application to liquid, gas, solid, and polymer systems.

Providing a broad survey of the entire field, 'Macromolecules' integrates representations of chemistry, physics and technology, as well as including precise descriptions of basic phenomena and balanced treatments of facts and theory.

Once simply a convenient container to hold and carry food, packaging has now become an integral part of the food chain. This new volume provides the most comprehensive and current information available on food packaging interactions, including presentations on migration, scalping, and permeability. A significant portion of the volume covers research on microwave susceptor packaging, the materials that promote browning and crisping of products. This is a valuable resource for food product development scientists and engineers who need to understand what can happen to foods in different types of packages. Regulatory agencies can also use this book to keep pace with new developments and to maintain appropriate regulation. Includes information on regulation of packaging for the United States, United Kingdom, and European Community.

Aimed at both the novice and the experienced scientist, this mini-encyclopedia describes over 100 materials methodologies, including evaluation, chemical analysis, and physical testing techniques. Each technique is presented in terms of its use and sample

The bibliography covers physics, chemistry, engineering, mathematics, astronomy, biology, geology, agriculture, medicine, environment, energy, equations, manufacturing, materials, measurement, carcinogens and pesticides.
