Produktbeschreibung

The current book describes the chemical and physical behavior of polymers and biopolymers that form highly associating structures in equilibrium solution. It summons the established results known of polymer complexes in solution taking into account also the recent developments. It covers the whole range from synthesis and fundamental aspects to applications and technology of associated polymers.
