Polymer Physics Online A-Z
This polymer physics online book has been part of CROW's polymer database since 2015. The objective of this online book is to provide an introduction to polymer science. All articles are presented online in HTML and are organized by scientific and engineering field and each article is interlinked to related topics. Throughout this website you will find links to other websites that present related information.
The content presented on this website provides an overview of polymer physics. Although there is less detail than can be found in standard physics textbooks, the information should still be helpful to both graduate and undergraduate students and to scientists.
At this point in time, not all important areas of polymer physics have been covered in this online physics book. In time, many other important topics in polymer science will be added, making this online physics book a valuable resource for students and scientists as well as professionals in related industries.
The editor appreciates suggestions for improvements and corrections and on new topics. Your input plays an important role in keeping this online book up to date.
About Polymer Physics
Polymer physics deals with the physical structure and the properties of polymers, as well as the reaction kinetics of polymerization of monomers and the depolymerization / degradation of polymers. A number of excellent text books on these topics have been published over the years. We recommend the books listed below if the reader wants to learn more about a certain topic or wants to gain an indepth understanding of polymer physics.
