Polyester Production, Characterization and Innovative Applications
The work cuts across advanced research on polyester production
methods, characterization techniques, and new applications. It explores the
functional properties of polyester, including modification applied to enhance
the performance of polyester, among them being unsaturated polyester resins. The
book also addresses polyester in construction and automobile industries, its
function in several forms such as fiber, resin, and composite. The book contains
elaborate analysis of the polyester mechanical, chemical, physical, and thermal
properties and can be used as an aid for understanding the versatility and
future of such an important polymer.
This note covers the entire syllabi of Veer Surendra Sai University
of Technology (VSSUT) various basic as well as advanced topics of polymer
chemistry. It introduces classes of polymers, which discuss the differences
between thermoplastics and thermosetting polymers, and discusses natural versus
synthetic polymers. This note will be covering organic and inorganic polymers
with special emphasis on cis-trans isomerism and the glass transition
temperature. The notes also elaborate on significant features such as
crystallinity in polymers, step polymerization or polycondensation and kinetics
of polymerization without strong catalysts. Molecular weight control of linear
polymerization receives major emphasis and is thus a useful reference for
students and for professionals who need to study synthesis structure, and
properties of polymers, in detail.

The lecture notes by Sathyabama Institute of
Science and Technology detail polymer chemistry at considerable length, with
interest in the mechanisms, techniques, and degradation mechanisms of polymers.
They also include a general overview of industrial polymers, processing methods,
and classifications as well as bonding in polymers. The text delves into the
area of chain growth polymerization. This resource offers a balanced discussion
of the theoretical aspect and practical application of polymer chemistry, making
it apt for polymer science and engineering students. Moreover, the notes focus
on the environmental challenges within the degradation of the polymers as well
as the production of eco-friendly materials.

This Wikipedia
resource provides an overview of the most common synthetic polymers; namely,
low-density polyethylene (LDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene
(PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polystyrene (PS), nylon, and others. The
resource outlines the general properties of these polymers, its uses, and
production methods with more attention on their wide applications in daily life.
This guide would serve as an excellent resource to the understanding of the
synthetic polymer industry and the key materials that are integral to modern
manufacturing, packaging, and electronics. It is a quick one-stop reference that
scholars can use.
The resource provided by Seoul National University has deep
insight into the physical and structural properties of polymers. Text here
covers different states through which polymers go: rubbery, molten, and
crystalline states, in addition to discussing crystallization processes and
polymer morphology. This resource covers the ways molecular structure affects
the material's physical properties and behavior. Topics include conformation,
real chain structures, and the glassy state with substantial detail in how
polymers operate under various conditions. This sourcebook is indispensible
reading for anyone investigating the structural-functional relation in advanced
polymer science.
