The Nile on eBay FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE Modern Techniques for Polymer Characterisation by J.V. Dawkins, R.A. Pethrick This text is primarily concerned with the determination of the size of polymer molecules in solution, their sequence structure and also molecular weight characteristics. It should be of interest to research polymer chemists and all concerned with the study and use of macromolecular materials. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Taking an interdisciplinary perspective, this volume provides a unique insight into the principal characterisation techniques available for determining the size of macromolecules in solution, their structural sequences and molecular weight. Recognition of macromolecules as a distinct state of matter owes much to the availability of various techniques for molar mass characterisation. In recent years, significant progress has been made into refining and developing these techniques but there has been a need for a volume that describes all the principal characterisation techniques and their relevance to various types of material. This book reflects some of the most recent advances and covers such techniques as: * Temperature rising elution fractionation * Field flow fractionation * Static and dynamic light scattering * Neutron scattering * Vapour Pressure Osmometry/Viscometry * Ultrafugation and Sedimentation * Gel Electrophoresis of Biological Macromolecules * Mass Spectrometry of Polymers The book will be invaluable for all those who are concerned with the study and use of macromolecular materials. It describes the developments that have been made in methods for molar mass characterisation and also the size of molecules in solution and solid phases. As the problem of molar mass characterisation is common to synthetic and biological polymers, this book will be of interest not only to polymer chemists, engineers and technologists, but also for biologists and scientists in numerous allied disciplines. Back Cover Concerned primarily with the determination of the size of polymer molecules in solution, their sequence structure and also molecular weight characteristics, this book includes contributions relating to molecular weight and molecular weight characteristics using conventional chromatographic techniques, spectroscopic techniques describing determination of sequence structure, and scattering techniques concerned with the determination of macromolecular size. The book will be invaluable for postgraduate and research polymer chemists and all those who are concerned with the study and use of macromolecular materials. The techniques described reflect some of the most recent advances which have been made in the development of methods for molar mass characterisation and also the size of molecules in solution and solid phases. The problem of molar mass characterisation is common to synthetic and biological polymers, hence this book will also be of interest to biologists, polymer engineers and technologists.
