The aim of this four volume, multi-author reference work is to provide a unique and comprehensive guide to the radiation curing field. During the last ten years radiation curing has developed into an area of increasing scientific and technological importance. These books outline the photochemical processes involved, evaluate the emerging applications and possibilities for further applications as well as providing an up-do-date overview of current research and industrial development. Volume One deals primarily with the basic principles of radiation curing: UV-curing; EB-curing; microwave curing; oligomer/resin technology; chemistry of imaging science; testing methods; equipment; coatings applications; and emerging trends in photopolymers for holographic recording and laser-induced reactions. Both academic researchers, graduate students and specialists in industrial research and development laboratories should find these volumes of value in the way that they present recent developments in the fields of polymer photochemistry, chemistry of photosensitive materials, the design of highly efficient photoresponsive systems, UV- and EB-curing, experimental methods of testing, reprography, microelectronics and halography.
