N-Nylons - Their Synthesis, Structure & Properties

Das erste Buch, das physikalische und chemische Eigenschaften der n-Nylons, Polymere aus der Polyamid-Familie, vollständig und übersichtlich abhandelt! Neben allgemeinen Angaben zur Thermodynamik, Polykondensation und Kristallinität werden Synthese, Struktur und Merkmale aller Nylons von n = 1 bis n = 22 ausführlich diskutiert.As the title suggests, this unique book describes the synthesis, structure and properties of the polyamide family known by the common term n-nylon. Each nylon from n=1 to n=22 is discussed in detail with descriptions of the preparation of monomers, various synthetic approaches to the polymerization, structure and crystallisation of polymers and both their fundamental properties and important technological properties. It treats the structure and properties from two perspectives, namely the effect of the aliphatic chain length between amide groups and the effects of the rigidity or flexibility of the main chain Whilst intended as a reference work for all polymer scientists, in academia and industry, working with nylons, polyamide and condensation polymers, n-Nylons will also be appreciated by post-graduate students of polymer science and engineering. Each self-contained chapter can be read individually and is extensively referenced.
