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 main area that resource Telmo
Ojeda talks about involves ecological aspects of polymers focused on the waste
of polymers, degradation process, and biodegradable polymers. He expresses the
fate of polymeric material at disposal, elaborating on non-biodegradable and
biodegradable polymers primarily from renewable resources. This guide provides
valuable information to understand synthetic polymers' ecological implications
and future aspects with development aspects for environment-friendly polymers.
The note on emerging materials provides a brief overview of materials that have
been developed with environmental issues posed by plastic waste in their mind
and could be the route to sustainable polymer development.
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 lecture notes
of Prof. Roylance outline the field of polymer engineering which is centered on
designing and analyzing synthetic polymers. Some content covered includes
properties selection for material mechanical characterizations, methods in
designing load-bearing and environment-friendly structures. Other aspects of
polymer engineering, which include material performance in real scenarios as
well as optimization of materials for use in a range of applications, are also
mentioned in lecture notes. This resource is especially invaluable for
engineering students and professionals working on the design and production of
polymer-based materials for structural applications.
