Electrets in Engineering: Fundamentals and Applications

Rating:
Summary: New book . New topic.
Review: Book provides a comprehensive overview of the structure and properties of electret materials used in engineering, medicine, and biotechnology. Starting with a discussion of traditional applications such as acoustic transducers and filters, it then moves on to more novel uses. Their use as anticorrosion and polymer coating technique is examined as well as their role in the lubrication of friction joints. Biological and medical applications are also covered before the final chapter looks into economic and ecological aspects of these materials.
