The Use of the Rapra Vibrating Needle Curemeter in Monitoring The Cure of Polyurethane Foams

Authors: N. Blair and R.J. Heath
Published: 2001
Number of Pages: 80 (This is a soft-backed book.)

This book was originally an MSc thesis and can be described as 'data in the raw'. The work itself provides new insights into the process of foaming in polyurethane foams. This publication will be ideal for technologists working in the polyurethane foam industry. The introduction to the book includes a discussion on the advantages and possible pitfalls of studying polyurethane foams. This is followed by an authoritative literature survey, providing a useful assessment of the research to date.
