Kleintjens Format: Paperback Publisher: Springer, Netherlands Imprint: Springer ISBN-13: 9789401069939, 978-9401069939 Synopsis The Rolduc Polymer Meetings, of which the contents of this volume represent the third, are already on their way to occupying a unique place in the crowded calendar of symposia on every aspect of polymer science and engineering. They combine manageable meeting size with a theme, 'Integration of Fundamental Polymer Science and Technology', which is often discussed but seldom realized in practice. The technological, or applied, areas of polymers have perhaps received more emphasis historically than those of other allied disciplines. Indeed, various plastic and rubber materials were successful items of commerce long before the macromolecular concept itself was firmly established. The more fundamental aspects of the field were also largely developed in industrial laboratories. The early work of Mark and Meyer at IG Farben, and that of Carrothers and Flory at Du Pont, are good examples of this. The present situation, in which polymers are being applied to more and more demanding end uses, from high performance materials on the one hand to the biomedical and electronics fields on the other, caIls for an ever greater understanding of the basic scientific principles governing their behavior. It is evident, therefore, that interactions between those engaged in the 'pure' and 'applied' parts of the field must be promoted effectively. The Rolduc Polymer Meetings contribute significantly to such interactions, not only by interweaving technological and scientific presentations, but also by providing a forum for the participants to discuss problems of mutual interest in all their complexity.

Don't be fooled by a rival company selling the same book cheaper. They will never deliver and fob you off with excuses for months! I am absolutely delighted with Books etc. I should have purchased from them first time around instead of being tempted by a slightly cheaper price! Book etc are my go to eBay store of choice for hard to get titles that I am looking for. They have never disappointed me. Every delivery is packaged safely. the descriptions are 100% accurate and i get my order in days.

I wish eBay would revise the categories in the "Tell us more" section. "Condition" and "Appearance" are the same reference. Packaging is at least as important with sellers thinking that wrapping in wafer thin grey plastic serves to protect the item in any way - it does not. Books etc. go the extra mile and is far and away my favourite book seller - they dispatch very quickly, provide the most secure of packaging and are the best of value book seller. 10 stars for service!
