An Introduction to Polymer Colloids
The growth of interest in the subject of Polymer Colloids over the last twenty five years or so has been very large resulting now in major international conferences on an annual basis and many national ones as well. The interest stems not only from the wide range of applications of these materials but also from a curiosity as to the mechanism of formation and their growing use as model particles to investigate fundamental aspects of physics and chemistry. In July 1988 a NATO Advanced Study Institute was held in Strasbourg, France, at the Centre St. Thomas. As an educational introduction to this I nstitute a series of eight lectures was given to cover the fundamental aspects of the subject. T...
Polymerization in Organized Media
Summarizes the current state of the art concerning the effect of organization of monomers on the polymerization process. Some of the techniques covered that bring about such ordering include thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystalline media, gas-water and gas-solid interfaces, micelles and microemulsions. Potential applications range from novel composite media to biopolymer synthesis. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Soft Matter Physics
In a liquid crystal watch, the molecules contained within a thin film of the screen are reorientated each second by extremely weak electrical signals. Here is a fine example of soft matter: molecular systems giving a strong response to a very weak command signal. They can be found almost everywhere. Soft magnetic materials used in transformers exhibit a strong magnetic moment under the action of a weak magnetic field. Take a completely different domain: gelatin, formed from col lagen fibres dissolved in hot water. When we cool below 37°C, gelation occurs, the chains joining up at various points to form a loose and highly deformable network. This is a natural example of soft matter. Going fu...
