About the Book

Polymer Science deals essentially with such aspects as are of immediate concern to a new entrant to the field of polymers. Taken as a whole, these 15 chapters are aimed to raise the reader to a level from where he/she can easily assimilate other specialised and exhaustive treatises on the subject. Topics dealing with the chemistry, physics and technology of polymers, are developed in a careful and logical manner so as to provide an easy and enjoyable reading. Several examples and analogies are brought in so as to make the main concepts easy to follow and tables are included so that the book can serve, to a limited extent, as a handbook dealing with polymer related parameters. It is meant for students taking courses in polymer science or technology and also for those working in the plastics, rubber and other allied polymer industries but without having a formal educational background in polymer science.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
