The monthly roundup from Editor Teresa McPherson.
We’re
pleased to announce several new additions to our website this month. As part of
our new expanded coverage of polymers this year, we’ve established a
partnership with GEM-Chem, Brussels, Belgium, to offer GEM-Chem’s Polymers
Library on the
ASI website. This valuable resource
consists of articles on the synthesis, processing and production of polymers.
It also includes newsreels updated daily, global capacities of plastics, and
several articles on management topics. New articles are added to the site on a
monthly basis.
“We feel this resource will be a valuable
addition to our magazine’s online content,” said Publisher Sue Love. “Readers
will benefit from the depth of information that can be found on the
site.”
Speaking of polymers, we’re covering this important
issue this month in the form of several articles. “Corona Surface Treatments
and Bonding with Silicone Adhesives” examines how the polymeric structure of
silicone adhesives allows polysiloxanes to be used in an array of applications
because it allows for different types of polysiloxanes. And see “Polymer
Glossary” for a comprehensive listing of polymer terms, as well as a list of
common abbreviations.
In addition, look for coverage of
polymers in the form of a special report in the June issue, as well as in the December
Buyers’ Guide.
We’ve added the following to the homepage as
well:
- Ask Dr. Dave hotlink -
an online form to send questions in for Dr. Dave’s monthly
column
- Submit press releases -
an online form to submit news releases to our editorial department for consideration
in the magazine
- Submit classifieds -
an online form to submit classified advertisements electronically
We
hope all of these will facilitate easier communication with our readers and advertisers,
and make the website more functional and user-friendly. If you have any
suggestions for us, we’d be glad to hear them. Please direct your comments to
me by e-mail at
mcphersont@bnpmedia.com.
