The Handbook of Fillers, Extenders and Diluents describes more than 2500 trade names, chemicals and materials that serve the primary function of lowering the overall cost of the end products to which they are added. These ingredients are often selected based on secondary, property-enhancing functions. In the paper industry they are used to improve brightness, increase opacity and reduce porosity. Inerts, extenders and supplemental pigments are often used in paints to increase color, hiding power, weatherability and control viscosity. Fillers in plastics and polymers impart strength, lubricity, electrical and thermal properties. Besides supplying bulk to detergents, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, diluents act to adjust dose or concentration. This Handbook is an excellent tool for locating additives based on their function and/or industrial application.
