Polymer science is concerned with the structure, synthesis, physical properties, and utility of polymers. Polymers are macromolecular building blocks used to construct natural and manmade materials. Polymers from the Inside Out: An Introduction to Macromolecules provides an allencompassing introduction to polymers and how they affect the world.Offering a clear explanation of the unique properties exhibited by polymers, this book explores the detailed microstructures of polymers and their internal responses to stress and the environment. Polymers from the Inside Out appeals to a wide range of disciplines, including polymer, organic, materials, and physical chemistry, as well as textile science and engineering.Chapters include: Physical properties unique to polymeric materialsStepgrowth and chaingrowth polymerizationsMicrostructures of polymersConformational characteristics of polymers developed with the rotational isomeric states modelSolution and bulk properties of polymersBiopolymersDiscussion questions appropriate for first and secondsemester polymer students at the end of every chapter Polymers from the Inside Out is designed to facilitate either a onesemester or twosemester course on polymers and is an essential resource for the practicing scientist.
