Polymer Chemistry: The Basic Concepts
Author: Paul C. Heimenz Š1987, 752 pgs., illustrated

Students will recognize this text as their indispensable introduction to polymer chemistry. As a professional reference, Polymer Chemistry: The Basic Concepts is a superb tool for researchers investigating polymers, plastics, coatings and fiber science. This versatile book is ideal for in-house training programs, professional seminars and short courses.

More about the book:
This exception text surpasses other works in this area of physical chemistry in depth of coverage, actual examples (over 50 solved problems), and comprehension. The extraordinarily unified approach encompasses an in-depth account of derivations - emphasizing bulk behavior - and a perfect introductory-level balance of reactions, solutions, and bulk mechanical properties.

Focussing on the structure, energetics and dynamics of polymer molecules and assuming no polymer prerequisites, this outstanding work prompts applications of knowledge in end-of-the-chapter exercises. It reviews and develops a wide range of topics including thermodynamics, kinetics, and spectroscopy before relating them to polymers. It also provides extensive cross referencing, keeping the entire work cohesive, and it features the constant use of SI units.

Polymer Chemistry is an indispensable introduction to the discipline of advanced undergraduate as well as beginning graduate students. Polymer, physical, and organic chemistry students will not want to miss the coverage of preparation and properties of various polymers. Engineering and materials science students will benefit enormously from the treatment of mechanical properties of bulk polymers. And biochemistry and molecular biology students will certainly appreciate the focus on solution properties.

As a reference, this work is superb for researchers investigating polymer, plastics, coatings, and fiber science. Additionally, this versatile book is ideal for in-house training programs, professional seminars and society or association courses.
