The brief explains in simple terms the essentials of polymer
chemistry and how polymers came to be discovered by pioneers in
this field. It relates the many uses of polymers, including those
not widely recognised by the lay person. The chemistry of
polymerisation and the influence of chemical structure and
additives on properties are described. Ethical issues are
considered, especially in the context of huge tonnages of plastics.
Finally short paragraphs on more than 30 common polymers are listed
chronologically with chemical structures, properties and
applications. It will appeal to those with connections to or within
the plastics, rubber and textile industries, science students,
members of other science disciplines using polymers, as well as
people just curious to know about everyday plastics.
