The field of bioscience methodologies in physical chemistry stands at the intersection of the power and generality of classical and quantum physics with the minute molecular complexity of chemistry and biology. This book provides an application of physical principles in explaining and rationalizing chemical and biological phenomena. It does not stick to the classical topics that are conventionally considered as part of physical chemistry; instead it presents principles deciphered from a modern point of view, which is the strength of this book.

This volume collects selected papers presented and discussed during the 9th National Conference organized by the Italian Association of Materials Engineering, AIMAT from 2008 at Piano di Sorrento (Napoli, Italy). It gives a valuable representation of highlights of the research and development activities running in 21 Italian universities and research centers in the field of materials science and engineering. All the reported research topics are focused on a methodological approach that takes into account scientific issues and engineering aspects related to real applications.

This book is mainly dedicated to the processes of ozonolysis, destruction and stabilisation of polymers, reactions and structure formation of polymers in fractal spaces, hydrosilylation reactions, anti-adhesive coatings, synergism and antagonism in processes of polymers phototransformation and light stabilisation, selective oxidation, carbocations reactions and polymer analogous reactions.
