How out of date is this reference?
(OP)
I've been taking a personal interest in moulded components (an area of my mind largely composed of ignorance) and rummaging in my library overflow (boxed in the garage) I came across this book:
"Liquid Moulding Technologies"
Woodhead Publishing Limited
1997 edition.
A hand written sticker says $75.
Unusually I don't recall how I came by this. I certainly didn't spend $75.
If anyone is familiar with this book: are there any areas I need to be cautious because of recent developments? Newer plastics or techniques? etc.
Seems it ought to serve as a handy reference.

There are very few new polymers over the last 30 years, but there are a lot of new additives and blends.
