Infos

Integrating coverage of polymers and biological macromolecules into a single text, Physical Chemistry of Macromolecules is carefully structured to provide a clear and consistent resource for beginners and professionals alike. The basic knowledge of both biophysical and physical polymer chemistry is covered, along with important terms, basic structural properties and relationships. This book includes end of chapter problems and references, and also: Enables users to improve basic knowledge of biophysical chemistry and physical polymer chemistry. Explores fully the principles of macromolecular chemistry, methods for determining molecular weight and configuration of molecules, the structure of macromolecules, and their separations.

Rezensionen

"...a useful addition to the libraries of scientists, researchers,
and engineers working in this field...could also serve as an
undergraduate text in a polymers or chemistry program."
(Materials and Manufacturing Processes, August 2006)

"...a modern overview of polymer physical chemistry...a valuable
addition to any polymer scientist's library, and it is hard to
imagine anyone not getting a lot of useful information and
inspiration from reading it." (Polymer News)
