The application techniques are many, and the uses are numerous. Technical people need to be aware of many things. One study said that a coating chemist must be proficient in 27 different disciplines. This book is directed at supplying a broad cross-index of some of the different aspects to help the technical person. It is not meant to be an in-depth treatise on any subject. It is meant to give insight into the various subjects covered. The chapter authors or the editor may be contacted for more information or direction on the subjects. To aid the person involved in coatings, inks, or adhesives, be they chemists, engineers, technicians, researchers, or manufacturers, chapters are given in the areas of fundamentals and testing, coating and processing, techniques and materials, and surface coatings. Each section contains information to expand the awareness and knowledge of someone practicing in the field. The objective is to help people solve problems and increase their level of technology. With time, technology increases, as shown by the chapter on statistical design of experiments, and the chapter on using equipment to determine ultraviolet (UV) resistance. Newer materials such as fluorocarbon resins, polyurethane thickeners, and high-temperature pigments are included as well as older materials such as alkyds, clays, and driers. To accomplish the presentation of technology, this book has been expanded to 118 chapters by adding new material and updating other material. Hopefully, the reader will expand his or her knowledge and further push the envelope of technology. The editor gratefully acknowledges the many contributions of the chapter authors and the publishers who have made this book possible. Arthur A.
