Opis

High-Performance Polymers for Engineering-Based Composites presents a selection of investigations and innovative research in polymer chemistry and advanced materials. The book includes case studies in the field of nanocomposites. The volume provides coverage of new research in polymer science and engineering with applications in chemical engineering, materials science, and chemistry. In addition to synthetic polymer chemistry, it also looks at the properties of polymers in various states (solution, melt, solid). The chapters provide a survey of the important categories of polymers including commodity thermoplastics and fibers, elastomers and thermosets, and engineering and specialty polymers. Basic polymer processing principles are explained as well as in-depth descriptions of the latest polymer applications in different industrial sectors. This new book reviews the field's current state and emerging advances. With contributions from experts from both the industry and academia, this book presents the latest developments in polymer products and chemical processes.

Recenzje

"This book reflects the fast developments in the synthetic chemistry that took place during the last decades and made possible the preparation of a large variety of new polymer-based materials with tailored properties. It presents an extensive collection of articles on issues ranging from polymer synthesis, characterization, and processing, to modern and emerging industrial applications. With contributions from both academia and industry experts the book has a really broad scope and can be of interest for students, researchers, and engineers working in the field of polymer science and technology."
