Tremendous developments in the field of polymer science, its growing importance, and an increase in the number of polymer science courses in both physics and chemistry departments have led to the revision of the First Edition.

This new edition addresses subjects as spectroscopy (NMR), dynamic light scattering, and other modern techniques unknown before the publication of the First Edition. The Second Edition focuses on both theory (physics and chemistry) and engineering applications which make it useful for chemistry, physics, and chemical engineering departments.

Key Features
* Focuses on applications of polymer chemistry, engineering and technology
* Explains terminology, applications and versatility of synthetic polymers
* Connects polymerization chemistry with engineering applications
* Leads reader from basic concepts to technological applications
* Highlights the vastly valuable resource of polymer technology
* Uses quanitative examples and problems to fully develop concepts
* Contains practical lead-ins to emulsion polymerization, viscoelasticity and polymer rheology
