The Group 13 Metals Aluminium, Gallium, Indium and Thallium
The last two decades have seen a renaissance in interest in the chemistry of the main group elements. In particular research on the metals of group 13 (aluminium, gallium, indium and thallium) has led to the synthesis and isolation of some very novel and unusual molecules, with implications for organometallic synthesis, new materials development, and with biological, medical and, environmental relevance. The Group 13 Metals Aluminium, Gallium, Indium and Thallium aims to cover new facts, developments and applications in the context of more general patterns of physical and chemical behaviour. Particular attention is paid to the main growth areas, including the chemistry of lower formal oxidat...
An Introduction to Plastics
This second edition of An Introduction to Plastics is the answer to manifold requests for an updated version by the readership. Since publication of the first edition in 1993, the field of plastics has seen tremendous development. Their manufacture and properties are discussed and correlated to the molecular and supermolecular properties of polymers. The contents have been thoroughly revised, restructured and enlarged. Several topics such as polymer composites and mixtures, morphology, flow properties and processing have been given more space, and chapters on electrical conductivity and non-linear optical properties have been newly added. Reviews of the first edition: "This book presents a p...
Carbohydrate Chemistry
In many fields, most notably medicine and molecular biology, the understanding of the structure and function of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates remains vital. This new volume contains critical reviews covering the latest findings in both chemical and biological sciences, and demonstrates the interdisciplinary nature of modern carbohydrate research. This book addresses diverse applications that continue to be major challenges for carbohydrate chemists. The book starts with a review of Gérard Descotes contribution to the field as a pioneer of French modern carbohydrate chemistry. Green nanocatalytic oxidation of free sugars, photosensitive glycomacrocycles, the application of disaccharides in supramolecular chemistry, recent advances in the radiation chemistry of polysaccharides, and the cell wall pectic rhamnogalacturonan II, an enigma in plant glycobiology are just some of the diverse topics presented in Volume 45. This set of reports will certainly benefit any researcher who wishes to learn about the latest developments in the carbohydrate field.
Polymers in Dispersed Media I
Dedicated to Dr. Alain Guyot who played an important role in setting up and the development of Polymer Science in Lyon, and on the occasion of his formal retirement, the 4th International Symposium "Polymers in Dispersed Media" took place in April 1999 in Lyon, France. The present two volumes of Macromolecular Symposia contain 83 invited and contributed papers which are classified according to the three main topics of the symposium. Articles in volume 150 deal with "Polymerization in Dispersed Media", whereas volume 151 comprises contributions to "Non-Conventional Dispersion of Polymers", as well as "Properties and Applications of Dispersed Media".

Polymer Characterization and Materials Science
The UNESCO School and IUPAC Conference in April 2001 was the fourth to be held in Stellenbosch, South Africa. World authorities are invited to give tutorials at the School and presentations at the Conference to expose South African students and researchers to new ideas in the area of macromolecular science. Continuing the theme of Macromolecules and Materials Science, the focus was on polymer characterization, new polymer architectures and nanomaterials. A number of papers presented at the Conference are collected in this volume of Macromolecular Symposia.
Data Evaluation in Light Scattering of Polymers
This book is based on lectures and posters presented at the workshop "Data Evaluation in Light Scattering of Polymers"held in Bad Schandau, Germany. The articles cover a broad range of applications including basic research studies on complex polymeric systems as well as routine measurements and provide a survey of novel data evaluation schemes mostly developed during the last decade. Additionally, this issue contains contributions dealing with novel and / or highly specialized light scattering experiments and with the combination of light scattering instruments with other experimental techniques.
Polymer Science Insights
This volume of Macromolecular Symposia contains chapters dedicated to different aspects of modern polymer science. Highly skilled researchers produced texts with detailed information on several subjects, such as, hybrid materials, detection of electric charges trapped in polymer systems, supramolecular structures in rubber blends, compatibilization of elastomer-based blends, rubber/organoclay nano-composites, new stereospecific catalysts and conductive polymer blends. Most of these subjects are extremely new and likely to appear in polymer textbooks only in the latter part of the 21st century.
Polymer Processing and Structure Relationships
The rapid development of polymer technology in recent years has produced an increasing range of new polymers and additives, and seen much innovation in processing technologies. The need for understanding the relationships between polymeric structure, processing conditions and material properties is therefore greater than ever before. The EUROMAT 2001 conference held in June 2001 in Rimini, Italy was an ideal international forum for dealing with this complex subject. Selected lectures are presented in this volume of Macromolecular Symposia, which should be of interest to scientists of polymer chemistry and of polymer blending, processing and recycling, in academia and industry, alike.
Ionic Polymerization
The International Symposium on Ionic Polymerization (IP'99) was held in Kyoto, Japan, July 1999. It was sponsored by IUPAC, the Chemical Society of Japan, the Society of Polymer Science, Japan, the Society of Synthetic Organic Chemistry, Japan and the Japan Chemical Innovation Institute. The research areas covered were directed at the traditional fields of cationic, anionic and ring-opening polymerization, as well as polymer synthesis, including radical, metal catalyzed, and enzymatic polymerization, plus polycondensation and new polymer architecture. The papers in this volume of Macromolecular Symposia cover a broad range of topics illustrative of the symposium.
