Opis

Completely revised and updated, the fourth edition of this classic text continues to offer the reader a thorough understanding of viscoelastic behavior, essential for the proper utilization of polymers.

• Explains principles, corresponding equations, and experimental methods with supporting real-life applications
• Adds coverage of measurement techniques (nano-indentation, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and diffusing wave spectroscopy (DWS)), biopolymer viscoelasticity, and the relationship between mechanical polymer properties and viscoelastic functions
• Has two new ections to address modern areas of viscoelastic measurement: large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) and microrheology
• Includes problems in the text and an Instructor's Manual (including solutions) available for adopting professors
• Prior edition reviews: "The book is clear written and... is] appropriate for students in introductory undergraduate courses and for others wanting introduction to the fundamentals of the subject." (CHOICE, December 2005); "This book is invariably well written, logically organized and easy to follow...I highly recommend this book to anyone studying polymer viscoelasticity." (Polymer News, December 2005)

The revised fourth edition of the text that offers a thorough understanding of viscoelastic behavior, essential for the proper utilization of polymers

The thoroughly revised and updated fourth edition of Introduction to Polymer Viscoelasticity is the classic resource on the topic of molecular viscoelasticity. This important text bridges the gap between primers on polymer science and advanced research–level monographs. The authors assume a molecular, rather than a mechanical approach, and provide a strong grounding in the fundamental concepts, detailed derivations, and particular attention to assumptions, simplifications, and limitations.

Revisions to the updated fourth edition feature the inclusion of new measurement techniques, coverage of biopolymer viscoelasticity, and a vital discussion of the relationship between mechanical polymer properties and viscoelastic functions. In addition, the text contains two entirely new sections that address modern areas of viscoelastic measurement: large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) and microrheology. The authors explain principles, corresponding equations, and experimental methods with supporting real–life applications and the text has supporting data available with a supplementary website. This important resource:

• Offers a completely revised and updated guide to molecular viscoelasticity
• Includes coverage of measurement techniques (nano–indentation, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and diffusing wave spectroscopy (DWS)), biopolymer viscoelasticity
• Explores the relationship between mechanical polymer properties and viscoelastic functions
• Offers two new sections that address modern areas of viscoelastic measurement: large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) and microrheology

Written for polymer and materials scientists, chemical engineers, physical chemists, product design engineers, mechanical engineers, and students, Introduction to Polymer Viscoelasticity is the go–to resource for understanding the most current research and developments in the field.
