Features: This book is concise and easy to understand, providing an in-depth yet accessible explanation. In addition to serving as a textbook for higher normal universities, it can also be used by students and teachers of chemistry in secondary normal schools, non-polymer major university students and teachers, as well as secondary school teachers and engineering technicians for reference. The book is divided into three main parts. The polymer chemistry section introduces various important types of polymerization reactions, their reaction mechanisms, polymer chemical reactions, and functional polymers. The polymer physics section focuses on explaining the relationships between the structure and properties of polymers, including mechanical, electrical, thermal, solution, and aging characteristics. The process and application section briefly describes the application scope of major polymers and their processing and shaping methods. The book's chapter outlines the history and prospects of polymer science and technology, as well as some basic concepts. Each chapter is followed by exercises and important reference books.
