This work introduces the basic theories and experimental methods of anionic polymerization as well as the synthesis, analysis and characteristics of anionic polymerized products. It details the creation of linear and branched polymers, random and block copolymers, graft and macromonomers, and many other substances. The work emphasizes the relationship between fundamental principles and commercial applications.;College or university bookstores may purchase five or more copies at a special student price, available on request from Marcel Dekker, Inc.
A reference/text introducing the basic theories and experimental methods of anionic polymerization as well as the synthesis, analysis, and characteristics of anionic polymerized products. Details the controlled synthesis of linear and branched polymers, random and block copolymers, graft copolymers, macromonomers, and functionalized polymers, as well as other substances, emphasizing the relationship between fundamental principles and commercial applications. Other topics include the structures of organometallic initiators; the kinetics, mechanisms, and stereochemistry of anionic polymerization; and the production of general purpose and specialty elastomers.
