Advances in Polymer Technology a quarterly peer-reviewed journal edited under the auspices of the Polymer Processing Institute presents important developments in polymeric materials production and processing methods and equipment and product design. In addition to original articles on trends and advances in polymer technology the editors welcome review articles technico-economic studies and patent reviews as well as short communications on new processing and product technologies for plastics elastomers and other polymers. Examples are technologies for reactive processing multiphase polymer systems simulation of processing and product design recycling and degradation on-line rheological morphological and compositional measurements and specialty polymers for specific applications. Submissions should be directed to the Editor Dr. Theodore Davidson Polymer Processing Institute Suite 3901 Guttenberg Building New Jersey Institute of Technology Newark NJ 07102-1982 or to the Editor - Europe Dr. Leno Mascia Loughborough University Institute of Polymer Technology and Materials Engineering Loughborough Leics LE11 3TU UK.
