Polymer Science and Engineering (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781632386595)

The science of polymers studies the properties, synthesis, design and characterization of synthetic polymers for the production of commercial products. The principal sub-disciplines of polymer physics, polymer chemistry and polymer characterization are concerned with the different aspects of the study of polymers. Synthetic polymers are divided into the two main groups- plastics and elastomers. Plastics refer to all malleable polymers and elastomers are polymers with viscoelasticity. Some examples of polymers are rubber, teflon, nylon, kevlar, etc. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of polymer science and engineering which will be crucial for the progress of this field in the future. Some of the diverse topics covered herein address the varied branches that fall under this category. As this field is emerging at a rapid pace, the contents of this book will help the readers understand the modern concepts and applications of the subject.
