3-Volume Set. Polymers are materials composed of long molecular chains that are well-accepted for a wide variety of applications. This unit explores these materials in terms of their chemical composition, associated properties and processes of manufacture from petrochemicals. Material Science relating to Polymers such as synthetic Polymers like Plastics is known as Polymer Science. The field of Polymer Science includes researches of multiple disciplines like Chemistry, Physics and Engineering. This publication entitled "Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Technology" provides the readers with key information on the said subject in an affordable three volumes condensed format. This user-friendly reference publication offers quick access to all areas of polymer science and technology. It presents the state of the art in all areas of polymer science, technology and engineering, covering new imaging and analytical techniques and new methods of controlled polymer architecture. It also talks about related information about polymers, plastics, fibres, blonnateria Is and polymerisation processes. The "Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Technology" gives an introduction to polymer science and technology in addition to a basic understanding of polymers and polymer nomenclature and polymer characterisation. Natural polymers, synthetic polymers and their sources are discussed briefly. Other themes which are covered include the phenomena of observing and measuring polymer/colloids properties; polymer chemistry and chemical properties of polymers; chemistry of high polymers; polymer physics and physical properties of polymers; polymer structure, tacticity and other properties; and polymer measurement devices. This publication also addresses processes like manufacturing; methods of polymer synthesis and modification; design and synthesis of polymers with controlled structures; products and stuffs made from polymers; polymer processing, testing and analysis; polymer blends and composites; polymer fibre composite materials; design and manufacture of composites; biopolymers and biomaterials; smart polymers and polymeric materials; and polymers strength enhancement and degradation. Other aspects which are highlighted include computational polymer science and technology; theoretical polymer science and technology; applied polymer science and technology; polymer rheology; polymer crystallisation; polymer material science and engineering; biomedical applications of polymers; macromolecules of interfaces and films; electronic and photonic molecular materials and devices; advanced polymer research; and polymer fibre applications.
