This book is derived from a recent project sponsored by the Polymer
Engineering Directorate of the SERC and carried out at the
University of Lancaster under the joint auspices of the Departments
of Chemistry and Engineering. The project set out to provide a
novel type of teaching material for introducing polymers and their
uses to students, especially of engineering. Case studies of real
examples of polymers at work are used, so the student or teacher
can start with a successful and well-designed product and work
backwards to its origins in the market, in design and material
selection and in the manufacturing process. The philosophy is that
such an approach captures interest right at the start by means of a
real example and then retains it because of the relevance of the
technical explanation. This after all is what most of us do
habitually; we turn to examples to make our point. The hope is that
subject matter with a somewhat notorious reputation among
engineers, such as aspects of polymer chemistry and the non-linear
behaviour of polymers under mechanical loading will be fairly
painlessly absorbed through the context of the examples. Each study
becomes a separate chapter in the book. The original studies, and
hence the present chapters, vary in length because different topics
demanded different approaches. No attempt has been made to alter
this, or to adopt a standardized format because to have done so
would have interfered with the vitality of the original work.
