The 75th Anniversary Celebration of the "Division of Polymeric
Materials: Science and Engineering" of the "American Chemical
Society," in 1999 sparked this third edition of "Applied Polymer
Science" with emphasis on the developments of the last few years
and a serious look at the challenges and expectations of the 21st
Century.
This book is divided into six sections, each with an Associate
Editor responsible for the contents with the group of Associate
Editors acting as a board to interweave and interconnect various
topics and to insure complete coverage. These areas represent both
traditional areas and emerging areas, but always with coverage that
is timely. The areas and associated chapters represent vistas where
PMSE and its members have made and are continuing to make vital
contributions. The authors are leaders in their fields and have
graciously donated their efforts to encourage the scientists of the
next 75 years to further contribute to the well being of the
society in which we all live.
Synthesis, characterization, and application are three of the legs
that hold up a steady table. The fourth is creativity. Each of the
three strong legs are present in this book with creativity present
as the authors were asked to look forward in predicting areas in
need of work and potential applications. The book begins with an
introductory history chapter introducing readers to PMSE. The
second chapter introduces the very basic science, terms and
concepts critical to polymer science and technology. Sections two,
three and four focus on application areas emphasizing emerging
trends and applications. Section five emphasizes the essential
areas of characterization. Section six contains chapters focusing
of the synthesis of the materials.
