• Sommario/riassunto: "This book introduces the theory of light-induced polymerization utilizing ultraviolet (UV) and visible light and electron beams (EB) as the initiators, beginning with an analysis of the physical chemistry of photopolymerization and its advantages and disadvantages compared to other types. The volume explains how the underlying chemical reactions relate to the types of processes selected and product quality, with an in-depth consideration of the raw materials and equipment required for efficient UV and EB curing. Special attention is given to the principles of formulation and to applications where this type of curing leads to higher quality products at lower costs"--
