About the Book

Discerning the properties of polymers and polymer-based materials requires a good understanding of characterization. This revised and updated text provides that understanding through its comprehensive survey of characterization methods, and its simple, concise chapters.Polymer Characterization: Physical Techniques, provides an overview of a wide variety of characterization methods, which makes it an excellent textbook and reference. It starts with a description of basic polymer science, providing a solid foundation from which to understand the key physical characterization techniques. The authors explain physical principles without heavy theory. Special emphasis is given to application of the techniques to polymers, with plenty of illustrations. Topics covered include molecular weight determination, molecular and structural characterization by spectroscopic techniques, morphology and structural characterization by microscopy and diffraction, and thermal analysis. This edition contains a new chapter on surface analysis as well as some revised problems and solutions. Designed for advanced undergraduate courses, this text is also suitable for students with no prior knowledge of the subject. Its concise treatment of each topic offers students relevant information in a format that provides simple descriptions and quick, easy access.

Table of Contents:
Introduction: Preliminary Survey. Molecular Mass Determination. Introduction to Spectroscopic Techniques. Ultraviolet-Visible Spectroscopy. Vibrational Spectroscopy. Infrared and Raman Spectroscopy. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy. Electron Spin Resonance Spectroscopy. X-ray Diffraction. Transmission Electron Microscopy and Diffraction. Scanning Electron Microscopy. Light Optical Techniques. Thermal Analysis. Density, Surface Properties and Neutron Diffraction. Multiple Characterization Applications. Theoretical Predictions of the Physical Properties of Polymeric Materials. Appendix. Index.

Review :
“This book contains fifteen chapters and aims to give a comprehensive coverage of methods used to identify and characterize polymers. It is intended for second and third year students of Materials Science, Polymer Technology or Chemistry as well as scientists and technologists working in the polymer industry. Although designed to be self-contained, background knowledge of thermodynamics and polymer science would be useful in suing the book. … The level of the material is entirely appropriate to the target audience, and the writing is clear and well constructed. … Overall, this is a very good collection of materials which should allow students to generate the necessary background knowledge before proceeding to the laboratory.” —Gareth Price, Department of Chemistry, University of Bath, in Physical Sciences Educational Reviews, Vol. 7, Issue I, May 2006
