Book Description
Symposium HH, "Polymer-Based Smart Materials-Process, Properties, and Application," Symposium II, "Polymer-Based Nanocomposites," and Symposium JJ, "Nanostructured Polymeric Materials-Synthesis and Assembly," were held Nov. 29-Dec. 3 at the 2010 MRS Fall Meeting in Boston, Massachusetts. Polymeric materials pervade all walks of life. Recent advances in polymerization chemistry, polymer assembly and polymer processing have resulted in a rich array of polymer-based materials with tailored properties through precise control of molecular structures and architecture. This symposium proceedings volume represents the recent advances in polymerization chemistry, polymer assembly and processing. Exciting recent developments occurring in polymeric materials include, new and efficient drug delivery vehicles, novel polymer composite materials, smart and self-healing materials, and novel optoelectronic and dielectric applications.

Book Description
Book & CD. This book aims to present the progress in the science of polymers and monomer, synthesis, study of properties and application of polymers, polymer mixtures, composites and filled polymers. The book collects original articles and reviews important for both pure and applied chemistry. The application of polymers in medicine, composites and nanocomposites, reduction of polymer material combustibility, kinetics and the mechanism of various reactions are of special attention. Both synthetic and natural polymers are discussed. Some part of the collection, related to chemistry and physics of polymers, is devoted to oligomers and low-molecular compounds. This book brings together new and exciting research in this field.

Book Description
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 book presents leading-edge research in this rapidly-changing and evolving field.

Book Description
This book is mostly based on papers presented at the Fourth International Symposium on this topic held in Savannah, Georgia. However, in addition to these papers, certain very relevant papers have also been included to broaden the scope and thus enhance the value of this book. Currently there is tremendous interest in these material because of their unique properties and applications in diverse technological areas ranging from microelectronics to aerospace to adhesive bonding. This book is divided into three parts: Part 1: Synthesis and Bulk Characterization; Part 2: Surface and Interface Aspects (Composites and Metallization); and Part 3: Applications. The topics covered include: synthesis of a number of polyimides with tailored properties; nanocomposites for high-performance applications; molecular assembly of polyimides; polyimide L-B films; metallization of polyimides; applications of high temperature polymers as proton exchange membranes; dielectrics, and in textile.

Book Description
"This new volume focuses on polymers, their characterization, and their various applications. These include drug delivery applications, electromagnetic shielding, ferroelectric applications, and many more. The book covers synthesis, characterization, and property studies of some of these polymers including their morphology, structure, and dynamics. It also introduces the most recent innovations and applications of polymers, fillers, and their composites in the electronics, biomedical, pharmaceutical, and engineering industries. Topics also include ferroelectric ceramics and the numerous polymers used for radiation shielding applications. The bottleneck in the development of novel technologies is often defined by the limitations of the available materials. Polymer science, for instance, has lately made large steps towards innovative materials and processes. Polymeric materials are ideal examples of structural and functional materials because of their versatility in practically all areas of modern life and technology. Some of their outstanding properties are high elasticity, stiffness, toughness, strength, good thermal resistance, and high chemical stability. This volume, Advances in Diverse Applications of Polymer Composites: Synthesis, Application, and Characterization, provides important information that will be valuable for researchers, postgraduate students, professors, and instructors working in the field of polymers."--
