Reviews
From the reviews:
"Polymer composites have been around a long time and are extensively used in many types of applications ranging from floor tiles to stealth aircraft. … This book is an edited volume that addresses a broad range of topics in this field … . There are 18 chapters emanating mainly from European laboratories and others in the eastern hemisphere. … It will be a valuable addition to the library of any group actively developing composite materials." (Donald R. Paul, Materials Today, Vol. 10 (1-2), January-February, 2007)
