Here's what some people are saying about this book:

"This short book introduces the industry newcomer to all the basics of rubber technology in simple, easy-to-read terms requiring no technical background. From where polymers come from to how specifications work, it covers all the major topics of the field in moderate detail. It has been written with the non- technical person in mind, but also will serve as a good starting point for the chemist or engineer who wants to learn about rubber, how it is made, tested, and controlled in quality. The glossary of rubber terms goes beyond the content of the book itself and is a convenient reference for both newcomers and those already in the industry. Lastly, the bibliography provides an excellent list of the latest reference works for all who will go on to greater learning." -- RJD

"An excellent and concise primer to rubber technology that will benefit those new to the subject as well as refresh the practitioner. This short book packs a surprising amount of technical information into a format that is clear and easy to understand, yet without overly simplifying the concepts."
