Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Technology, Concise


Book Description

The compact, affordable reference, revised and updated The Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Technology, Concise Third Edition provides the key information from the complete, twelve-volume Mark's Encyclopedia in an affordable, condensed format. Completely revised and updated, this user-friendly desk reference offers quick access to all areas of polymer science, including important advances in nanotechnology, imaging and analytical techniques, controlled polymer architecture, biomimetics, and more, all in one volume. Like the twelve-volume full edition, the Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Technology, Concise Third Edition provides both SI and common units, carefully selected key references for each article, and hundreds of tables, charts, figures, and graphs.




Liquid Crystalline Polymers


Book Description

The International Workshop on Liquid Crystalline Polymers (LCPs) held in June 1993 in Italy attracted many of the leading researchers in this area of polymer science. The meeting provided a forum for the exchange of research and ideas on current developments and future research and applications of liquid crystalline polymers.This volume consists of a selection of the best papers presented at the meeting covering synthesis and characterization, liquid crystalline thermosets, rheology, blends and composites containing LCPs and transport properties.




Liquid Crystalline Polymers


Book Description

A 2006 edition explaining the underlying science and applications of liquid crystalline polymers.




Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering, Dielectric Heating to Embedding


Book Description

Entirely rewritten, this multi-volume work has been expanded to reflect the vast changes that have occurred in polymer and plastics technology over the past twenty years. After the initial volume (A to Amorphous Polymers), sixteen more volumes have been published, four in each calendar year, 1985 through 1988. A supplement and an Index volume was published in the first half of 1989.
