ISBN: 9798188855727 - introduction to polymer science and engineering: plastics, elastomers, and composites from molecular structure to industrial processing (6 risultati)

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - A covalent chain of ten thousand atoms is not a large or small molecule. It is a different kind of material, and it behaves by rules that have no counterpart in metals, ceramics, or ordinary liquids.Most readers meet polymers as scattered facts drawn from chemistry, physics, engineering, and struggle to connect them to see why a plastic keeps creeping under load, why the same resin can be stiff or glass-clear depending only on how it was cooled, or why so much of a part's behaviour is set during processing rather than before it.This guide follows the polymer chain from beginning to end how it is made, how long it is, what solid state it settles into, how it responds to force, heat, and time, how it is shaped, and how it fails and shows at every step how molecular structure governs the behaviour you measure and use. It is organised around the structure, property, processing, and performance relationships that hold the subject together.Inside, you will: - See why chain length, not chemistry alone, separates a soft wax from a load-bearing solid.- Describe molar mass as a distribution and choose the right average for each property.- Connect the glass transition, crystallinity, and morphology to stiffness, clarity, and stability.- Read viscoelastic behaviour and use time-temperature superposition to reason about long-term performance.- Relate melt flow and processing extrusion, injection molding, and forming to orientation, stress, and warpage.- Treat mechanical failure, degradation, and sustainability as design variables.Key topics include chain structure and classification; molar mass and dispersity; step-growth, free-radical, ionic, coordination, and controlled polymerization; copolymers and architecture; polymer solutions; the glass transition and crystallinity; characterization; viscoelasticity; mechanical behaviour and fracture; rheology and melt flow; thermal, electrical, optical, and barrier properties; processing; degradation and sustainability; and fibre-reinforced composites supported throughout by worked examples and end-of-chapter practice problems.It is written for undergraduate and graduate students across polymer, materials, chemical, and mechanical engineering and for practising engineers and technical professionals who need to connect molecular structure to real material behaviour, whether as a course text or a working reference.Begin building a clear, connected command of polymer science and engineering one coherent guide that takes you from molecular structure to industrial processing and stays useful long after the first read.…
