Polymer Structure Characterization: From Nano to Macro by Richard A Pethrick

By Richard A Pethrick

The varied actual homes displayed by way of low molar mass natural fabrics and polymers are because of the their molecular supplier. with a purpose to comprehend the constitution – estate courting of a fabric it is important to first examine the interactions at a molecular point. This new version of Polymer constitution Characterization presents readers with the historical past had to comprehend the criteria that impression molecular association and the way this impacts the morphology and bulk actual houses of a material.


In order to introduce the suggestions, the ebook first appears to be like at small molecular platforms and builds as much as complicated macromolecular structures. the second one variation has been totally revised and up-to-date to incorporate new examples and references. themes coated comprise: natural crystals, liquid crystals, plastic crystals, polymer crystal progress, amorphous glassy fabrics, polymer surfaces and interfaces, colloids and molecular association in drinks in addition to new chapters on self-assembly and biopolymer systems.


The booklet is meant to supply complimentary fabric for quite a number undergraduate and postgraduate classes in fabrics technological know-how, molecular chemistry and chemical physics. as well as polymer and fabric scientists, the booklet may even be of curiosity to chemists and physicists learning the homes of natural materials.
