About this book

This revised and updated second edition of "Polymer Syntheses, Volume I" brings together useful preparative methods for polymers and resins by functional group type that are of interest to both academic and industrial researchers. Several new directions for polymerization procedures have been included and are organized by various methodologies. Tables of physical property data and preparations make this book a valuable addition to any research library or research group. It provides detailed directions for the synthesis of various functional groups, includes up-to-date references to the journal literature and patents (foreign and domestic), and reviews the chemistry for each functional group and suggests where additional research is needed.
