Practical Guide to Rotational Moulding, Third Edition, takes a step-by-step approach to rotomoulding, covering applications, moulds, machinery, materials, and design. This third edition has been thoroughly revised to include the latest advances, including novel materials and moulds, new products, and automation.

The book begins with a chapter that introduces the rotational moulding process, analyses advantages and disadvantages, and explores common applications for rotomoulded products. The subsequent chapters provide detailed, methodical coverage of moulds, machinery, materials, and design for functionality, supported by clear illustrations and diagrams. Finally, challenges and future developments are discussed.

This hands-on technical guide helps engineers, designers and practitioners to understand all aspects of rotomoulding, with the aim of producing performant end products and parts, with uniform wall thickness and potentially in complex shapes. The book is also of great interest to professionals across the plastics industry, as well as researchers and advanced students in plastics engineering, industrial design, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, and materials science and engineering.

Über den Autor
Roy J. Crawford was Vice Chancellor of the University of Waikato, New Zealand. Prior to this he was Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Research at Queen's University Belfast in Northern Ireland, United Kingdom. At Queen's University, Dr. Crawford was responsible for establishing the Polymer Processing Research Centre which included the Research Group on rotational moulding of plastics, which he also founded. In 1998, he was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, and in 2005, he was elected as a Fellow of the Society of Plastics Engineers. In the 2015 Queen's Birthday Honours, Dr. Crawford was appointed a Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit, for services to tertiary education. Dr. Crawford sadly passed away in 2016.
