Annotation Several reasons are behind formation of odors in materials, including the following: Use of other materials than polymer, especially materials required in processingUse of various process parameters and their severity in degradation of components of formulationRecycling of polymeric materialsContact with natural products (food, cosmetics, etc.)Storage Migration-evaporationStorage in the same spaceDiffusion-related properties The above reasons are analyzed for different materials to find out the best methods to prevent odor formation. The book also contains information on testing of odor changes, relationship between odor and toxicity, and the selection of raw materials for fog-free products. The first book in this field, the Handbook of Odors inMaterials is needed by anyone interested inmaterials. The first book of its kind in this fieldAnalyzes the reasons behind odor formation and provides the best methods to prevent odors in various materialsContains information on testing of odor changes and the relationship between odor and toxicity
