✦ Synopsis

This updated and expanded edition provides readers with an overview of those finishings which radically change the key characteristics of materials. The text embraces all aspects of the decoration and surface finishing of plastics, reviewing the techniques used, the types of material for which they may be employed, pre-treatments, the problems of finishing and possible uses. The contributors also explain how methods and machinery have been adapted, modified and developed for work with plastics
