A practical overview of significant advances in polymer chemistry
This guide provides academic, government, and industrial
researchers and managers with a snapshot explanation of specific
advances in nine selected areas of polymer chemistry. To compile
this formation, the author reviewed 2006-2007 US patents in
twenty-three broad subject areas:
Additives
Adhesives
Bioactive
Coatings
Cosmetics
Dental
Electroactive
Energetic Polymers
Fibers
Fluorine
Gels
Imaging Agents
Ink
Liquid Crystals
Nanoparticles
New Synthetic Methods
Optical Materials
Photoactive Polymers
Polymerization Methods
Regulators
Photoresists
Separations
Thermosets
Advances in Polymer Chemistry and Methods Reported in Recent US
Patents provides systematically organized and concise coverage
of:
Newer bulk anionic, cationic, and free radical polymerization
methods, and their impact within selected industrial applications
such as electronics, biomedical/biomaterials, and adhesives
Bulk and surface cross-linking agents using selected bi- and
tri-functional reagents, photochemical methods, or free radical
agents
Cationic and cationic ring opening polymerization reaction,
including a description of di- and tri-heterocyclic monomers and
their use in medical devices
The first section focuses exclusively on polymerization
reactions. For each entry, explicit experimental procedures of all
intermediates, polymers, and materials characterization methods are
provided. In addition, each entry is referenced with relevant US
patents, methods for preparing derivatives and analogues, and
product applications. The second section emphasizes modificationof
existing polymeric materials using well-established synthetic
organic methods, photochemical reactions, and pyrolysis and thermal
rearrangements. Methods for preparing and using cross-linking
agents are also provided.
This guide helps practicing chemists and researchers stay up to
date on developments and identify trends. It's also an excellent
reference for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in
related chemistry courses.
