Blow moulding is a manufacturing process used to form hollow plastic parts. It evolved from the ancient art of glass blowing and it is used to particular advantage with plastic materials. Celluloid was used first to blow mould baby rattles and novelties in the 1930s, linear low-density polyethylene was used in the 1940s for high production bottles and these days polyethylene terephthalate is used to make anything from soda bottles, to highly sophisticated multilayered containers and automotive fuel tanks in the last decade. When designing a product it is important to consider aspects such as a material's characteristics, the processing methods available, the assembly and finishing procedures, and the life cycle and expected performance of the product. This book presents the basics of blow moulding as well as the latest state-of-the-art and science of the industry. A key feature is the approach of discussing the 'basics' and then taking the reader through the entire process from design development through to final production.

Over the years, numerous handbooks and design guides on the subject of plastics have been published. None of these dealt in any depth with the subject of this handbook-blow molding. The recent growth of blow molding as an economically feasible process has been rapid in many areas. This growth, coupled with the lack of technical publications relating to blow molding, prompted the Board of Directors of the Blow Molding Division of the Society of Plastic Engineers to undertake the assimilation of available information and the editing of this milestone publication. We believe that this Plastic Blow Molding Handbook will provide the reader with a greater understanding of the unique process characteristics of blow molding, enable the reader to apply proven techniques in developing new products and applications for blow molding, and will serve as a valuable reference for all who are interested in the plastics industry. Our thanks are heartily extended to the various authors for their con tributions to this pioneering effort in blow molding. J. H. Moran Chairman Blow Molding Division Society of Plastic Engineers xi Preface The blow molding of plastic articles has in the past had an aura of the mystic around it. As a result, little comprehensive work on the subject has been published. Advances in the technology of polymeric materials, machine controls, computer science, and management techniques have made it nec essary to correct the myths and magic.

I am pleased to present the Fifth Edition of the Plastics Engineering Handbook. Last published in 1976, this version of the standard industry reference on plastics processing incorporates the numerous revisions and additions necessitated by 14 years of activity in a dynamic industry. At that last printing, then-SPI President Ralph L. Harding, Jr. anticipated that plastics pro duction would top 26 billion pounds in 1976 (up from 1.25 billion in 1947, when the First Edition of this book was issued). As I write, plastics production in the United States had reached almost 60 billion pounds annually. Indeed, the story of the U.S. plastics industry always has been one of phenomenal growth and unparalleled innovation. While these factors make compilation of a book such as this difficult, they also make it necessary. Thus I acknowledge all those who worked to gather and relate the information included in this 1991 edition and thank them for the effort it took to make the Plastics Engineering Handbook a definitive source and invaluable tool for our industry.

In the past few decades, there have been great advances in the phylogenetic classification of infectious diseases of man. Taxonomic Guide to Infectious Diseases organizes this information into a standard biological classification and provides a short, clinically-oriented description of every genus (class) of infectious organism. It covers an overview of modern taxonomy, including a description of the kingdoms of life and the evolutionary principles underlying the class hierarchy, and each following chapter will describe one phylum and the genera that contain infectious species. Taxonomic Guide to Infectious Diseases is written in an engaging, narrative style, providing the reader with an easy to digest yet clinically-oriented story of the pathogenic features of each genus. Designed for researchers, clinicians and students of infectious diseases, medical microbiology and pathology. Offers genus-by-genus classification of infectious diseases along with short, clinically-oriented descriptions of each genusPresents comprehensive lists of infectious species for each genera and identifies diseases caused by each species. Compiled and written by a well-known pathologist with extensive experience in diagnosing human infectious diseases.
