<P>Thoroughly updated, Introduction to Polymers, Third Edition presents the science underpinning the synthesis, characterization and properties of polymers. The material has been completely reorganized and expanded to include important new topics and provide a coherent platform for teaching and learning the fundamental aspects of contemporary polymer science. </P><P><STRONG>New to the Third Edition</STRONG></P><BLOCKQUOTE><P>Part I</P><P>This first part covers newer developments in polymer synthesis, including ¿living¿ radical polymerization, catalytic chain transfer and free-radical ring-opening polymerization, along with strategies for the synthesis of conducting polymers, dendrimers, hyperbranched polymers and block copolymers. Polymerization mechanisms have been made more explicit by showing electron movements.</P><P>Part II</P><P>In this part, the authors have added new topics on diffusion, solution behaviour of polyelectrolytes and field-flow fractionation methods.
