Description for Introduction to Synthetic Polymers
Paperback. Taking the most common polymers, this undergraduate textbook describes the basic principles of polymer science. Using polymers with which students will be familiar, for example polystyrene and PVC, this book relates the structure of polymers to their properties, and explains how and their properties can be tailored for a particular use. Num Pages: 232 pages, numerous figures and tables. BIC Classification: PNNP; TDCP. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 239 x 169 x 14. Weight in Grams: 412.
This clear and concise textbook introduces the huge field of polymer science to students taking degree courses in chemistry, material science and related subjects covering polymers. By focusing on the few major polymers, for example polystyrene and PVC, which are in common use and which the students will recognise, the book illustrates simply the basic principles of polymer science. It looks at the factors which give rise to the special properties of polymers, and emphasizes how polymer molecules can be synthesised with different sizes and architectures to tailor the properties of the resulting material. The later chapters then introduce a ... Read more
