Colour Technology of Coatings / / Wilhelm Kettler, Manfred Binder, Gerhard Wilker, Sandra Weixel, Hans-Jörg Kremitzl, Rainer Henning, Uwe Hempelmann, Stephan Gauss, Peter Gabel, Walter Franz.

Like many other textbooks, this one has its origins in the classroom and is the culmination of more than 10 years’ experience of teaching courses on colorimetry to engineers and technicians from various branches of industry. The VDMI, the VdL and the FPL asked various experts at pigments, paints, an...
