An alphabetical glossary. This unique compact technical lexicon is an easy to use aid directed to everyone who is in need of single headwords of the coating technology. It neither presupposes special coating knowledge nor fundamental chemistry cognitions. The text deliberately avoids chemical formulas and complex scientific explanations. To further increase its practical usefulness, the lexicon is enriched with many examples of technical applications and practical implications, as well as helped by the creation of cross references to similar terms. For readers with a technical education in coatings, it works as a compact and easy to carry information source, when it may be necessary to have a quick overview of the headwords from different sub-fields of the coating technology and to link single terms so that they contribute to a fuller understanding of the field.weiterlesen
