Dr. John Scheirs has worked extensively with poly and related polyesters. His early work involved studying the UV stability of PET and poly-ethylene naphthalate - in France and later he was involved with studying various industrial problems involving polyesters, such as photodegradation, annealing, crystallization behaviour, embrittlement, degradation by aminolysis, differential scanning calorimetry analysis, environmental stress cracking, hydrolysis, nucleating agents, transesterification, injection moulding of recycled PET compounds, solid-state polycondensation, desiccant drying of PET and melt stabilization of PET. More recently in the period 1998-2000, he was the technical manager for Coca-Cola Amatil's world-first PET reforming plant which converts post-consumer PET bottles into high-grade, high IV palletized PET for direct reuse in new bottles and injection and sheet moulding applications. John Scheirs is now the principal consultant with ExcelPlas Polymer Technology where he specializes in polymer recycling chemistry, formulation, processing and testing.Duane Priddy is the editor of Modern Styrenic Polymers: Polystyrenes and Styrenic Copolymers, published by Wiley.

“...useful for practicing polymer scientists and engineers who desire a wide-ranging resource on polystyrene materials...the brad range of subjects addressed support its use as a textbook for studying the general field of polymer science and engineering through the examination of a single material.” (Journal of the American Chemical Society, Volume 126, 4741) "...a wonderful book...this is a 'breath taking' accomplishment having great value to those involved with styrenics or having interest in styrenics..."
