Your search for the perfect polymers text ends here - with Polymer Science and Technology. By incorporating an innovative approach and consolidating in one volume the fundamentals currently covered piecemeal in several books, this efficient text/reference simplifies the learning of polymer science. The book is divided into three main parts. The first part explains polymer fundamentals. The second part discusses how polymers are prepared from monomers and the transformation of polymers into useful everyday articles. The third part examines the properties and applications of polymers. Polymer Science and Technology presents these aspects of the science in a readily understandable way. It emphasizes basic, qualitative comprehension of concepts, rather than their rote memorization or detailed mathematical analysis. Because the book's primary focus is the ultimate property of the finished polymer product, it also minimizes laborious descriptions of experimental procedures used for the characterization of polymers and, instead, focuses on how various stages involved in the production of the finished product influence its properties. Well-organized, clear-cut, and user-friendly, Polymer Science and Technology is an outstanding text for anyone desiring a better understanding of this challenging subject.

Industry Reviews

"a comprehensive textbook on the many aspects of polymer chemistry, physics, and engineeringprovides excellent problem examples for self study by the studentGiven the nature of the text, I thought that the book was a good value. It provided references to many areas in polymer science, minimizing the number of books on my shelf. The format was very readable and consistent throughout the book. The examples greatly aided in understanding of the subject matteran outstanding undergraduate book." --Andrew Auerbach, in Polymer News, Vol. 26, No. 8
