Description
<i>Handbook of Antioxidants, Second Edition</i> provides a wealth of information on the mechanics, practical effects, and applications of a wide range of antioxidants. The book starts by introducing general concepts then segues into a discussion on existing natural and synthetic antioxidants, characterizing their general properties and applications. Formation and action of oxidizing species in living organisms, ambient air, industrial environments, and chemical reactions are covered next. Subsequent chapters cover the theories and mechanisms of stabilization, performance indicators, antioxidant selection, the degradation and stabilization of different polymers and rubbers, specific effects on other components of formulation, and analytical methods.<br><br>This book is an excellent companion to the <i>Databook of Antioxidants, Second Edition</i>, which has also recently published. Both books supplement each other without repeating the same information – one contains data another theory, mechanisms of action, practical effects, and implications of application.
