Handbook of Thermoplastic Elastomers is a guide to the properties, processing, and applications of thermoplastic elastomers. It sets the standard for a reference on these materials by compiling in one comprehensive volume an applicable knowledge of the chemistry, processing, and all properties, and uses of thermoplastic elastomers.

Copiously illustrated and full of applicable processing and engineering data, this is the very definition of a "definitive" user’s guide.
