Editorial Reviews

After an introduction featuring general principles, an overview, and the author's personal perspective, subsequent chapters discuss inorganic and organometallic photoinitiators; calorimetric analysis of photopolymerization; kinetic analysis and performance of UV-curable coatings; photopolymerizable silicone monomers, oligomers, and resins; curing of vinyl ethers; coatings in the graphic arts; curing of printing inks; adhesives; imaging systems. Fundamental and practical problems are treated together in an effort to delineate the potential and current limitations of the technology. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
