This book approaches the analysis of forensic contact traces from a polymer science perspective. The development of characterization methods of new or unusual traces and the improvement of existing protocols is described. The book starts with a general introduction to polymers and the issues related to transfer, persistence and recovery of polymeric traces. The chapters present a distinctive feature of polymers, discussing how it can be measured, what the practical difficulties which can be encountered in the analysis, and how useful that information is for comparison or identification…mehr

This book approaches the analysis of forensic contact traces from a polymer science perspective. The development of characterization methods of new or unusual traces and the improvement of existing protocols is described. The book starts with a general introduction to polymers and the issues related to transfer, persistence and recovery of polymeric traces. The chapters present a distinctive feature of polymers, discussing how it can be measured, what the practical difficulties which can be encountered in the analysis, and how useful that information is for comparison or identification purposes. Practical tips for the realization of the forensic analyses are included.
Autorenporträt
Born in 1975, Valerio Causin received in 2004 a PhD in Chemical Sciences at the University of Padova. From 2001 to 2003 he was First Lieutenant at the Chemistry, Explosives and Flammables section of the Forensic Branch of Carabinieri in Rome. Since 2015 he works as a researcher at the Department of Chemical Sciences at the University of Padova. His research interests are focused on the application of polymer characterization techniques to forensic sciences, in collaboration with Carabinieri in Rome, Messina, and Verona. He served as a forensic consultant for the Court, for the Prosecutor and for the Defense in over 100 civil and criminal cases. In 2009 he was awarded the AIM prize for young researchers in polymer science, and in 2011 he was elected a member of the Scientific Committee of POLYCHAR World Forum on Advanced Materials. An author of 75 papers in international journals, he was invited or keynote speaker at a number of international conferences and in universities and research centers worldwide.
