With tremendous growth over the last five years, mechanochemistry
has become one of the most important topics in current polymer
science research. With a particular focus on polymers and soft
materials, Mechanochemistry in Materials looks at the subject from
the application of macroscopic forces to solid systems of
macroscopic dimensions. The book has been divided according to
length scale covering both experimental and theoretical
considerations simultaneously. The first section of the book
focuses on inspiration from nature, exploring and explaining
multiple biological phenomena. The second section discusses
molecular mechanochemistry, including the theoretical understanding
of the transduction of mechanical force and its impact on covalent
bonds cleavage and formation. The final section considers the
implementation of these phenomena at the mesoscale and discusses
the use of supramolecular/reversible aspects with similarities to
biological systems. The book provides a unique comparison with
natural systems and contains all the important achievements in the
area from the last decade. Appealing to a broad range of materials
scientists, working in industry and academia, this well-presented
and comprehensive title will be essential reading for researchers.
