Synthetic high polymers are now used along with other engineering materials in many economic fields. The building industry being one of these, makes use more and more of a wide variety of polymeric materials beside, or replacing, conventional construction materials like wood, glass, metals, masonry, concrete etc. Polymeric Building Materials fills the gap in the technical literature on the performances of polymeric products applied to construction. The chapters have been selected to demonstrate some of the novel and creative uses of polymeric materials in this field and cover subjects ranging from polymer-concrete composite systems to foams, adhesives, sealants, solar energy conservation and degradation. Numerous schematics, tables and diagrams help to give a better understanding of the different topics and the book is based on almost 800 references. The book will be of use to materials scientists, building and civil engineers, architects and chemical engineers involved in plastics and rubber technology.
