W ALL ARE SURROUNDED by plastic materials and cannot imagine modem life and utilities without the synthetic polymers. And yet, how many of us can distinguish between polyethylene and PVC? After all, most people name any polymer as ''Nylon. /I Is there any distinction between polymers and plastics? This introductory textbook tries to answer these questions and many others. It endeavors to provide the basic information required in modem life about the best utilization of new materials in the plastics era; the chemical sources of synthetic polymers, and the processes in which small"simple" molecules are converted to giant macromolecules, namely, ...

Reviews for Fundamentals Of Polymer Engineering
`A valuable addition to undergraduate engineering education.' Prof. Ronald Salovey, USC Los Angeles `The discussion of the different forms of polyolefins, and the relationship of their mechanical properties to their utility patterns is quite skillful...Thermoplastic processing and its rheological foundations are well handled...[I] recommend Ram's book for serious consideration ...
