Sommario/riassunto

"This book pulls together world-class experts to review the state-of-the-art materials and processing aspects of polyester film technology. Despite the technological and business importance of polyester films, there are very few books currently covering the topic of polyester films comprehensively -- including all aspects of the technology from first principles to practical applications. Covering topics such as optical and mechanical properties, microlayer coextrusion, dimensional control, and various film applications, this book includes the performance of real-life products and components used in everyday life"--
