This resource on the primary spectroscopic methods of polymer characterization is written by a polymer expert with 25 years of teaching and research experience. The book offers a background in the fundamental and experimental aspects and applications of vibrational and NMR techniques. The book's 11 chapters cover these aspects and applications of the primary spectroscopic methods, providing state-of-the-art information on FFIR, Raman, and NMR spectroscopy. Offering the reader a practical approach, this insightful volume shows how selected techniques can solve polymer structure problems as well as explains the advantages and limitations of these techniques. From these insights, the reader learns which techniques and methods to use and which to avoid for a particular problem. In addition, the reader will learn the sampling techniques to use and the type of results that can be expected. To meet the needs of industry, academia, and government, this valuable resource covers the spectroscopic techniques used in synthesizing polymers, in particular in the characterization of the microstructure of polymers.
This definitive reference will benefit those who have a basic knowledge of polymer chemistry and some familiarity with the basic vibrational and resonance spectroscopic methods, but who do not have the particular specialized knowledge that is required to apply the modem techniques.
