...not only informative, but thought-provoking. A 'must-have' reference to stay abreast of what is happening and emerging for polymeric foams and products. - Lih-Sheng (Tom) Turng, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA ...contains a comprehensive literature selection and very scientific descriptions for current approaches in foaming. Furthermore, the most recent developments in foam technology like foam extrusion and bead foaming of Polylactide (PLA) as well as nanocellular foams are part of the book. In general, the selection of topics is very meaningful and scientifically and technically highly relevant. -Volker Altstadt, University of Bayreuth, Germany ...features a comprehensive introduction...on state-of-the-art developments related to polymer foams and some emerging technologies as well as a future outlook, followed by product developments and material-specific foams and simulation....A must-have reference to stay abreast of what is happening and emerging for polymeric foams and products. -Lih-Sheng (Tom) Turng, University of Wisconsin-Madison
