The elements of polymer science and engineering

by Alfred Rudin

Polymeric materials are finding an ever-increasing number of new industrial applications. The day-to-day work of technically trained people in this industry is more likely to require a grasp of polymer science or engineering than of any other sub-discipline. The Elements of Polymer Science and Engineering, 2nd Edition is a hands-on guide for such readers, as well as serving as the text for a two- or three-semester course in polymer science and engineering. The material covered begins with basic concepts and proceeds through to current industrial practice.
