(Co)polymers prepared via free radical mechanism, together withpolyolefins, comprise the largest portion of the commodity plasticsindustry and are also used for preparation of many specialtymaterials. Handbook of Radical Polymerization provides a concisesource of information on mechanisms, synthetic techniques, andcharacterization methods and addresses future trends for polymersmade by free radical intermediates.
A one-stop, at-your-fingertips source of information forstudents, researchers, technologists, and industrial managers, theHandbook functions as a single reference of the conventional andcontrolled/living radical polymerization methods. Two experteditors collect and present historical background of the technique,basic information regarding various free radical polymerizationsystems, and state-of-the-art experimental techniques andindustrial applications. Chapters written by internationallyacclaimed experts in their respective fields include:
* Theory of Radical Reactions
* The Kinetics of Free Radical Polymerization
* Industrial Applications and Processes
* Nitroxide Mediated Living Radical Polymerization
* Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization
* Control of Free Radical Polymerization by Chain TransferMethods
* Macromolecular Engineering by Controlled RadicalPolymerization
Guaranteed to have a long shelf life, the Handbook of RadicalPolymerization promises to be an indispensable resource forchemists, chemical engineers, material scientists, and graduatestudents in the field, as well as a valuable addition toindustrial, academic, and government libraries.
