Polymer Physics: Applications to Molecular Association and Thermoreversible Gela

Description: Polymer Physics by Fumihiko Tanaka Maintaining a balance between theoretical descriptions and practical applications, Fumihiko Tanaka provides an up-to-date, unified treatment of polymer association and thermoreversible gelation. Guiding the reader through the fundamental laws of polymer physics, recent developments are explored, along with relevant case studies. This book will appeal to both researchers and students. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The field of polymer science has advanced and expanded considerably in recent years, encompassing broader ranges of materials and applications. In this book, Fumihiko Tanaka unifies the subject matter, pulling together research to provide an updated and systematic presentation of polymer association and thermoreversible gelation, one of the most rapidly developing areas in polymer science. Starting with a clear exposition of the fundamental laws of polymer physics, subsequent chapters discuss a new theoretical model that combines thermodynamic and rheological theory. Recent developments in polymer physics are explored, along with important case studies on topics such as self-assembly, supramolecules, thermoreversible gels and water-soluble polymers. Throughout the book, a balance is maintained between theoretical descriptions and practical applications, helping the reader to understand complex physical phenomena and their relevance in industry. This book has wide interdisciplinary appeal and is aimed at students and researchers in physics, chemistry and materials science. Author Biography Fumihiko Tanaka is Professor in the Department of Polymer Chemistry at the Graduate School of Engineering, Kyoto University. Professor Tanaka has published extensively and his current research interests are in theoretical aspects of phase transitions in polymeric systems, polymer association and thermoreversible gelation.

Review "As a valuable technical book and as a source of inspiration when teaching a graduate-level course, Polymer Physics fully deserves its place on the bookshelves of soft-matter scientists, and maybe even in the libraries of other condensed-matter physicists and chemists." -Roberto Piazza, Physics Today Promotional Balancing theoretical descriptions with case studies and practical applications, this is a unified treatment of polymer association and thermoreversible gelation.
