This book is the first volume in a two-volume compilation on
controlled/living radical polymerization. It combines all important
aspects of controlled radical polymerization: from synthetic
procedures, to rational selection of reaction components, to
understanding of the reaction mechanisms, to materials and
applications.
This book is focused on recent progress in the rapidly developing
field of controlled/living radical polymerization. It is a sequel
to ACS Symposium Series 685, 768, 854, 944, 1023, and 1024. Volume
1100 deals with the mechanistic aspects of controlled radical
polymerization and describes the recent advances in the most
important techniques, whereas Volume 1101 contains chapters on new
materials prepared by controlled radical polymerization as well as
applications of these materials.
Natural gums are polysaccharides consisting of multiple sugar units
linked together via glycosidic linkages. Most natural gums reveal
appropriate safety for oral consumption in the form of food
additives or drug carriers. Challenges related to the utilization
of natural polysaccharides, however, include uncontrolled rates of
hydration, pH dependent solubility, viscosity reduction during
storage, and weak interfacial properties. Modification provides an
efficient route for not only removing such drawbacks but also
improving physicochemical properties, such as solubility, viscosity
and swelling index, and introducing new properties for varied
applications.This book provides a comprehensive review of the
various modifications on gums to make them suitable for food,
cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. The book is divided in four
parts: an introduction to natural gums followed by in-depth
coverage of chemical modification, physical modification, and
enzymatic modification of gums. Each chapter includes reaction
mechanisms, physicochemical properties, rheological properties,
interfacial properties, applications and future perspectives.
Presenting a succinct account on gum modification from a practical
point of view, this book is a helpful reference for academic and
industrial scientists and engineers in food technology, materials
chemistry, pharmaceuticals, chemical, industrial, and applied
engineering, biochemistry, and biopolymers.

This book meets the long-felt need for a reference on ferrocenes
with the focus on catalysis. It provides a thorough overview of the
synthesis and characterization of different types of chiral
ferrocene ligands, their application to various catalytic
asymmetric reactions, and versatile chiral materials as well as
drug intermediates synthesized from them. Written by the "who's
who" of ferrocene catalysis, this is a guide to the design of new
ferrocene ligands and synthesis of chiral synthetic intermediates,
and will thus be useful for organic, catalytic and synthetic
chemists working in academia, industrial research or process
development.
This book sheds light on the molecular aspects of liquids and
liquid-based materials such as organic or inorganic liquids, ionic
liquids, proteins, biomaterials, and soft materials including gels.
The reader discovers how the molecular basics of such systems are
connected with their properties, dynamics, and functions. Once the
use and application of liquids and liquid-based materials are
understood, the book becomes a source of the latest, detailed
knowledge of their structures, dynamics, and functions emerging
from molecularity. The systems discussed in the book have
structural dimensions varying from nanometers to millimeters, thus
the precise estimation of structures and dynamics from
experimental, theoretical, and simulation methods is of crucial
importance. Outlines of the practical knowledge needed in research
and development are helpfully included in the book.
