Polymer Chemistry Notes

This set of notes by Prof. Lee summarizes the two major polymerization methodologies: step polymerization and chain polymerization. The purpose it serves in giving an overview of how the former processes work and why they are important in polymer synthesis makes the insight that much invaluable. Step polymerization is the process by which monomers are brought together to form polymers through condensation or elimination reactions, and the primary focus of chain polymerization is based upon polymer growth through repeating cycles of monomer addition. The notes provide a compact source of information on polymerization techniques. It is, therefore, highly necessary to students as an introductory material in polymer chemistry, a fundamental method of polymer science.

Advanced Structures and Properties of Polymers

The resource provided by Seoul National University has deep insight into the physical and structural properties of polymers. Text here covers different states through which polymers go: rubbery, molten, and crystalline states, in addition to discussing crystallization processes and polymer morphology. This resource covers the ways molecular structure affects the material's physical properties and behavior. Topics include conformation, real chain structures, and the glassy state with substantial detail in how polymers operate under various conditions. This sourcebook is indispensible reading for anyone investigating the structural-functional relation in advanced polymer science.

Properties of Polymers

Another source from Seoul National University, this book discusses mechanical and physical properties of polymers, a focus being on how molecular structure affects performance. Included topics are small vs. large molecules, shapes of molecules, and the study of polymer morphology. This resource also covers polymer blends and copolymers on how structure and composition may change the overall properties of materials. I find this resource informative about techniques used in testing polymers, such as physical testing methods, and really is a great guide for whosoever might want to understand the material science behind polymer engineering, blends, and their mechanical properties.
