Publisher's Synopsis
Polymer Science deals essentially with aspects that are of immediate concern to a new entrant to the field of polymers. Taken as a whole, these 15 chapters are aimed to raise the reader to a level from where he/she can easily assimilate other specialised and exhaustive treatises on the subject. Topics dealing with the chemistry, physics and technology of polymers, are developed in a careful and logical manner in order to provide easy and enjoyable reading. Several examples and analogies are brought in to make the main concepts easy to follow and tables are included so that the book can serve, to a limited extent, as a 'hand book' dealing with polymer related parameters.
