Synopsis

A collection of infrared and Raman spectra of 500 natural and synthetic polymers of industrial importance is presented in this book. A large variety of compounds are included, starting with linear polyolefins and finishing with complex biopolymers and related compounds. The spectra were registered using Infrared Fourier Transform Spectrometers in the laboratory of the All-Russia Institute of Forensic Sciences. The IR and Raman spectra are presented together on the same sheet. The accompanying data include general and structure formulae, CAS register numbers, and sample preparation conditions.

Features of this book:

• Continues the long tradition of publishing specific and standard data of new chemical compounds.

• For low-molecular weight substances, complementary IR and Raman spectra are featured on the same sample and printed on the same page. This "fingerprint" data allows the substance of the sample to be identified without doubt.

• An important feature of this unique collection of data is the increase in the identification precision of unknown substances.

• Peak tables are available in digital (ASCII) format, on a diskette delivered with the book. This allows the user to search for unknowns.

• All the spectra in the collection are base-line corrected.

This book will be of interest to scientists involved in the synthesis of new polymeric materials, polymer identification, and quality control. Libraries of scientific institutes, research centers, and universities involved in vibrational spectroscopy will also find this collection invaluable.

About this title

Review

R. Parsons
Professor Lobo has devoted an immense effort to this invaluable collection of data which will be of use to a wide variety of scientists and engineers. The compiler deserves a hearty vote of thanks for his self-less labour.

Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry and Interfacial Electrochemistry
...represents two decades of dedicated studies by the author, and provides chemists with a readily accessible source of information on these properties of electrolyte solutions.

Referencing and indexing are extensive and data sources are fully cited, including the title of papers which would be very useful to the readers. The book deserves a place in any research library.
