(This book has become an industry standard as it provides ...)
This book has become an industry standard as it provides insight to critical areas such as product design, meeting performance requirements, reducing cost, and zero-defect targets. The information presented is of value to fabricators, designers, and engineers and it also provides a firm basis for the beginner. The intent is to provide a complete review of the important aspect of the blow molding process that goes from the practical to the theoretical and from the elementary to the advanced.

This unique reference is the first book of its kind. It offers a comprehensive guide to the terminology and language used in the worldwide plastics industry, covering thousands of words and concepts in engineering, chemistry, thermodynamics, design, quality control, research activity, product development, manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, management, public opinion, government regulation, environmental issues, and many other key topics. The book describes both practical approaches and theoretical structures and offers detailed technical and business information pertaining to every area of the plastics industry. Special attention has been given to making the book accessible to individuals who may be unfamiliar with the words or expressions common to a given subject. Thus entries are organized topically and cross-referenced, and special sections are devoted to abbreviations, conversion factors, and chronology. This is a landmark resource that will benefit the entire spectrum of plastics professionals, from researchers and engineers to salespeople, designers, and students.

In this Reinforced Plastics Handbook, the authors have continued the approach of the late John Murphy, author of the first and second editions. The book provides a compendium of information on every aspect of materials, processes, designs, and construction. Fiber-reinforced plastics are a class of materials in which the basic properties of plastics are given mechanical reinforcement by the addition of fibrous materials. The wide choice of plastics resin matrices and the correspondingly wide choice of reinforcing materials mean that the permutations are virtually unlimited. But the optimum properties of resin and reinforcement cannot be obtained unless there is an effective bond between the two, and this is the continuing objective of reinforced plastics production, design, and processing.

(This book is for people involved in working with plastic ...)
This book is for people involved in working with plastic material and plastic fabricating processes. The information and data in this book are provided as a comparative guide to help in understanding the performance of plastics and in making the decisions that must be made when developing a logical approach to fabricating plastic products to meet performance requirements at the lowest costs. It is formatted to allow for easy reader access and this care has been translated into the individual chapter constructions and index. This book makes very clear the behaviour of the 35,000 different plastics with the different behaviours of the hundreds of processes. Products reviewed range from toys to medical devices, to cars, to boats, to underwater devices, containers, springs, pipes, aircraft, and spacecraft.

Dominick V. Rosato was born on April 19, 1921, in Boston, Massachusetts, United States.
Dominick V. Rosato graduated from the Philadelphia’s Drexel Institute of Technology (now Drexel University) with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering degree in 1942. He also attended Yale University, Ohio State University, and the University of Pennsylvania.
Dominick V. Rosato began his career as a tool maker with Schram Industries. He worked his way up to become a journeyman toolmaker while completing his education at Philadelphia’s Drexel Institute of Technology in 1942. He also trained as a military reserve officer. He was commissioned into the Army Air Force and assigned to the Nonmetallic Structures and Materials Laboratory at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio during World War II; later, during the Korean War, when he served as Deputy Chief of Plastics Research and Development. From this experience came a life-long love of plastics engineering, especially in the composites field.
Following his military career, Rosato served as Director of Plastics Research and Development for Raybestos in Manhattan from 1954 to 1963. There he worked on early space applications for plastics and composites. He published his first book on industrial uses of asbestos in high-performance plastics in 1954.
From 1963 to 1974 Rosato worked as director of international sales and marketing for Ingersoll Rand, then a major injection molding equipment supplier, while at the same time serving as technical editor of Plastics World magazine. Rosato published 28 industry handbooks and reference texts on subjects in plastics technology, mechanical engineering, blow molding, product design, injection molding, composites design and manufacturing, filament winding, environmental effects on plastics, and extrusion processing.
Dominick V. Rosato also contributed chapters to 45 other plastics technical books and prepared more than 2,000 articles, papers, and presentations. He founded and developed materials for the University of Massachusetts-Lowell’s Plastics Seminars and Workshop programs. Later in his long career, he developed and taught plastics materials, processing, and part design courses at the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence.
Rosato was an active member of the Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE), serving on the Injection Molding Division Board for decades. He was named a Fellow of the society in 1984.
