Description
Polymers are substances containing a large number of structural units joined by the same type of linkage.
These substances often form into a chain-like structure.
Starch, cellulose, and rubber all possess polymeric properties.
Today, the polymer industry has grown to be larger than the aluminium, copper and steel industries combined.
Polymers already have a range of applications that far exceeds that of any other class of material available to man.
Current applications extend from adhesives, coatings, foams, and packaging materials to textile and industrial fibres, elastomers, and structural plastics.
Polymers are also used for most composites, electronic devices, biomedical devices, optical devices, and precursors for many newly developed high-tech ceramics.
This new volume presents leading-edge research in this rapidly-changing and evolving field.
