Handbook of Antioxidants

Handbook of Antioxidants, 2nd Edition is a technical reference handbook focusing on the mechanics, practical effects, and applications of natural and synthetic antioxidants. The volume establishes how oxidative reactions develop and manifest across varied physical systems to support the study of chemical stabilization.

The content details the formation and action of oxidizing species and free radicals across four primary operational environments. Specifically, the text examines reactive species occurring in living organisms, ambient air, industrial environments, and chemical reactions, tracing chemical degradation behavior in each setting.

This publication acts as a companion volume to the Databook of Antioxidants, Second Edition. The handbook delivers technical context intended to support researchers in materials science, researchers in food science, and researchers in engineering fields.
