Characterization of Polymer Blends
BücherAngebote / Angebote:
Filling the gap for a reference dedicated to the characterization of polymer blends and
their micro and nano morphologies, this book provides comprehensive, systematic
coverage in a one-stop, two-volume resource for all those working in the field.
Leading researchers from industry and academia, as well as from government
and private research institutions around the world summarize recent technical
advances in chapters devoted to their individual contributions. In so doing, they
examine a wide range of modern characterization techniques, from microscopy and
spectroscopy to diffraction, thermal analysis, rheology, mechanical measurements
and chromatography. These methods are compared with each other to assist in
determining the best solution for both fundamental and applied problems, paying
attention to the characterization of nanoscale miscibility and interfaces, both in
blends involving copolymers and in immiscible blends. The thermodynamics,
miscibility, phase separation, morphology and interfaces in polymer blends are also
discussed in light of new insights involving the nanoscopic scale. Finally, the authors
detail the processing-morphology-property relationships of polymer blends, as well
as the influence of processing on the generation of micro and nano morphologies,
and the dependence of these morphologies on the properties of blends. Hot topics
such as compatibilization through nanoparticles, miscibility of new biopolymers and
nanoscale investigations of interfaces in blends are also addressed.
With its application-oriented approach, handpicked selection of topics and expert
contributors, this is an outstanding survey for anyone involved in the field of polymer
blends for advanced technologies.
