This is a new, basic introduction to polymer science. It is both
comprehensive and readable. The authors are leading educators in
this field with extensive backgrounds in industrial and academic
polymer research. The text starts with a description of the types
of microstructures found in polymer materials. This provides an
understanding of some of the key features of the various mechanisms
of homopolymerization and copolymerization which are discussed in
following chapters. Also discussed in these chapters are the
kinetics and statistics of polymerization, with a separate chapter
on the characterization of chain structure by spectroscopic
methods. The next part of the text deals with chain conformation,
structure and morphology, leading to a discussion of
crystallization, melting and glass transition. The discussion then
moves from solid state to solution properties where solution
thermodynamics is introduced. This provides the basis for
discussion of the measurement of molecular weight by various
solution methods. The final chapter deals with mechanical and
rheological properties which are discussed from a phenomenological
continuum approach and then in terms of a fundamental molecular
perspective. Altogether, this new text provides a comprehensive,
readable introduction to and overview of polymer science. It is
well illustrated with schematics prepared for this text to help in
the understanding of key concepts. It will provide a basic
understanding of today's polymer science for technical and
engineering personnel not already familiar with the subject, and a
convenient update and overview for materials scientists.
