Physical Chemistry of Polymers: A Conceptual Introduction

Physical Chemistry of Polymers, now in its third and improved edition, introduces its concepts in a format targeted for a blended-learning approach. It provides a basis to bridge polymer chemistry, which targets microscopic structures, and polymer engineering, which targets macroscopic functions. Topics covered are single chain statistics, multi-chain interactions, and chain dynamics, both from a viewpoint of structure, properties (mostly mechanical ones), and their interrelation. In all that, the author encourages the reader to think conceptually. Structured as learning units, the chapters now feature concise summary boxes for each topic. On top, comprehensive solutions have been added to the unit exercises.
