E-raamat: Cationic Polymerizations: Mechanisms, Synthesis & Applications

A comprehensive reference on initiation, propagation, transfer, and termination in cationic the polymerization of alkenes and heterocycles; and on the mechanisms of the reactions involved in all carbocationic and ring-opening polymerizations. Among the highlights are the cationic polymerization of vinyl and heterocyclic monomers, using living carbocationic polymerization, step polymerization based on aromatic compounds, synthetic aspects and recipes for several copolymers, and commercial applications. Includes a brief introduction to synthetic polymer chemistry in general and cationic polymerization in particular for those who need it. Addressed to chemists and engineers, and graduate and advanced undergraduate students working with polymers or plastic. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

This unified presentation of cationic polymerization discusses initiation, propagation, transfer, and termination in cationic polymerizations of alkenes and heterocycles. It also elucidates the mechanisms of the reactions involved in all carbocationic and ring-opening polymerizations. It is written by internationally acclaimed experts in their respective fields.
