Introduction to Polymer Chemistry by Charles E. Carraher Jr.
Call Number: QD381 .C37 2007
“Aiming his text mainly at an undergraduate audience, Carraher (Florida Atlantic U.) presents the basic science of polymers, covering factual, theoretical, and practical matters. Following the introduction, 15 chapters discuss polymer structure, molecular weight of polymers, naturally occurring polymers, step-reaction polymerization, ionic chain-reaction and complex coordination polymerizations, free radical chain polymerizations, copolymerization, organometallic and metalloid polymers, inorganic polymers, reactions of polymers, spectrometric characterization and testing of polymers, rheology and physical tests, additives, synthesis of reactants and intermediates for polymers, and polymer technology.”
