Publisher's Synopsis
Containing over 6,000 spectra, this three-volume set constitutes the largest available collection of infrared spectra of macromolecular substances. The authors provide in each case as much information as possible about structure, synthesis, origin, properties, and literature. They also provide three indexes: an author index, an alphabetical index giving the names of polymers, including old names as well as those recommended by IUPAC, and an empirical formula index giving the element composition of the structural repeating units.
