A comprehensive resource, this book summarizes recent technical research accomplishments in the area of thermodynamics, characterizations, and applications of polymer blends. It begins with an overview of thermodynamic behaviors of non-equilibrium polymers, then covers properties of polymer blends, including surface tension, transition, crystallization, morphology, and flow behaviors. It also discusses miscibility and molecular characterizations of polymer blends and reviews applications to various systems. In this time when science has such a strong tendency for diversification, this book…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
A comprehensive resource, this book summarizes recent technical research accomplishments in the area of thermodynamics, characterizations, and applications of polymer blends. It begins with an overview of thermodynamic behaviors of non-equilibrium polymers, then covers properties of polymer blends, including surface tension, transition, crystallization, morphology, and flow behaviors. It also discusses miscibility and molecular characterizations of polymer blends and reviews applications to various systems. In this time when science has such a strong tendency for diversification, this book demonstrates the relevance of one's own activities with neighboring branches of activities.
