Frontiers in Physical Organic Chemistry
Technical and technological development demands the creation of new materials that are stronger, more reliable, and more durable-materials with new properties. This new book covers a broad range of polymeric materials and technology and provides researchers in polymer science and technology with new research on the functional materials production c
The world faces significant challenges as the population and consumption continue to grow while nonrenewable fossil fuels and other raw materials are depleted at ever-increasing rates. This informative volume provides a technical approach to address these issues using green design and analysis. It takes an interdisciplinary look at concepts that can be applied across engineering disciplines in the development of products, processes, and systems to minimize environmental impacts across all life cycle phases. Topics include polymers for pollutant removal, wood-based biopolymers, bio-based polymers for drug formulations, biomaterial-based medical implants, biodegradabilty of biopolymer materials, bio-based polymers for food packaging applications, biodegradable polymers for tissue engineering applications, and more.
High-Performance Polymers for Engineering-Based Composites presents a selection of investigations and innovative research in polymer chemistry and advanced materials. The book includes case studies in the field of nanocomposites. The volume provides coverage of new research in polymer science and engineering with applications in chemical engineerin
This new volume presents leading-edge research in the rapidly changing and evolving field of polymer science as well as on chemical processing. The topics in the book reflect the diversity of research advances in the production and application of modern polymeric materials and related areas, focusing on the preparation, characterization, and applic
Chemical Reactions - Quantitative Level of Liquid & Solid Phase
Polymers are substances containing a large number of structural units joined by the same type of linkage. These substances often form into a chain-like structure. Starch, cellulose, and rubber all possess polymeric properties. Today, the polymer industry has grown to be larger than the aluminium, copper and steel industries combined. Polymers already have a range of applications that far exceeds that of any other class of material available to man. Current applications extend from adhesives, coatings, foams, and packaging materials to textile and industrial fibres, elastomers, and structural plastics. Polymers are also used for most composites, electronic devices, biomedical devices, optical devices, and precursors for many newly developed high-tech ceramics. This new volume presents leading-edge research in this rapidly-changing and evolving field.
Twelve chapters summarize recent advances in the chemistry and properties of polymers and composite materials. Presented by Monakov (Institute of Organic Chemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences), Zaikov (N.M. Emanuel Institute of Biochemical Physics, Russian Academy of Sciences), and Dalinkevich (N.N. Semenov Institute of Chemical Physics, Russian Academy of Sciences), the papers are largely based on work conducted at Russian, Georgian, Ukrainian, and Byelorussian research centers. Examples of topics discussed include a cutting machine for processing of soft polymeric waste, the design and method of calculation of an acoustic extruder head for manufacturing of long polymeric profile products, and macromolecular effects in the reactions of polyvinylchloride destruction.
