Keratins represent a group of fibrous proteins produced in some epithelial cells of vertebrates such as reptiles, birds and mammals. These proteins are abundantly present in nature and they constitute the major part of hair, wool, horns, nails, feathers and stratum corneum of the skin. In this book,

β¦ Synopsis
Thermosets are a key group of polymers.Β Understanding how their chemistry and structure affects their properties is essential to their manufacture and use in a range of applications. Β The book is composed of two parts: Structure and Properties of Thermosets (part one) and Applications (part two).Β Part one starts with a comprehensive overview of thermosets, then covers mechanical and thermal properties, rheology, nanostructures and toughening.Β The applications presented in part two range from the use of thermosets in the building and construction industry, aerospace applications, electrical applications, thermoset adhesives and insulation materials in appliances and other applications.
