Manufacturing of polymer composites

Suitable as a final-year undergraduate or graduate text, as well as being an introduction or desk reference for a practising engineer or designer. The book enables the reader to become comfortable with composites as a possible materials choice. It also provides the practising engineer or designer with sufficient knowledge about manufacturing related issues to permit them to avoid common design pitfalls and unmanufacturable designs. This text covers all commercially significant materials and techniques, while at the same time discussing areas of research that are nearing commercial reality.
