Advanced Topics in Polymer Chemistry and Materials Science

by Tamara Tatrishvili (Editor), Marc Jean Médard Abadie (Editor)

Overview

Advanced polymers, also known as engineering polymers or high-performance polymers, are synthetic polymers with exceptional mechanical, thermal, chemical, and electrical properties (high heat and thermal stability, frost, resistance, hydrophobicity, high dielectric indices, etc.). This new volume focuses on a particular applied objective: the creation of new polymeric materials with improved properties.

The volume highlights new concepts, achievements, and investigations in polymer chemistry and chemical engineering and provides a survey of the important categories of polymers, including commodity thermoplastics and fibers, elastomers and thermosets, and engineering and specialty polymers.

Scientists and researchers in the field of polymer functional materials will find much food for thought in this volume.

About the Author

Tamara Tatrishvili, PhD, is Assistant Professor and Main Specialist at the Office of Academic Process Management (Faculty of Exact and Natural Sciences) at Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University as well as Director of the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry and Polymeric Materials at TSU, Tbilisi, Georgia. She is also a DAAD alumna and a member of the Georgian Chemical Society. Her research interests included polymer chemistry, polymeric materials, and chemistry of silicon-organic compounds. She is the executive editor of the Journal of the Georgian Chemical Society and the author of more than 200 scientific publications, 15 books, and several monographs.

Marc J. M. Abadie, DSc, is an Emeritus Professor at the University Montpellier, France. He was head of the Laboratory of Polymer Science and Advanced Organic Materials – LEMP/MAO. He is the Michael Fam Visiting Professor at the School of Materials Sciences and Engineering, Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. His present activity concerns high-performance polymers for PEMFCs, composites and nanocomposites, UV/EB coatings, and biomaterials. He has published 11 books and holds 11 patents. He has advised nearly 95 MS and 52 PhD students with whom he has published over 400 papers. He has more than 40 years of experience in polymer science with ten years in industry (IBM, USA; MOD, UK; and SNPA/Total, France). In the 1980s, he created in the International Symposium on Polyimides & High Temperature Polymers, a.k.a. STEPI, which takes place every three years in Montpellier, France.
