This book offers both producers and users the opportunity to review and update their understanding of latest technologies and market issues impacting both inorganic and organic High Performance Pigments, together with assessing key regulatory affairs, in this special area of the chemical industry.
The manufacture of high performance pigments is today a global industry, no professional today can afford to waste time on unfocussed research. High Performance Pigments will effectively help chemists, physicists, engineers, applications and regulatory specialists, and materials scientists to stay ahead in this fast-changing field.
Features:
- Inorganic HPPs
- Topics that include both organic and inorganic products
- Organic HPPs
- Analytical chemistry of HPPs: Regulatory, legislative and product safety issues
