Features: This book covers fields such as synthesis, structure, kinetics, thermodynamics, and directed use of materials, primarily introducing various classifications, synthesis, and modification methods of polymers; thermodynamics, equilibrium, and polymer kinetics; physical methods applied to polymer characterization; polymer processing and testing techniques; and applications of polymers. This is the third edition, which builds on the previous two, adding knowledge on rubber-state elasticity, viscoelasticity, biomimicry, and the relationship between the structure and properties of materials in material science. The content is mature and classic, broadening the perspective of readers in different technical fields, helping them appreciate the importance and future potential of polymer chemistry. Additionally, the book guides readers on how to obtain more detailed sources for learning. It is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as engineering technicians in polymer and related fields.
