Synopsis

R.N.IBBETT This book provides a source of information on all major aspects of NMR spectroscopy of synthetic polymers. It represents a deliberate attempt to pull together the numerous strands of the subject in a single comprehensive volume, designed to be readable at every scientific level. It is intended that the book will be of use to the vast majority of polymer scientists and NMR spec­ troscopists alike. Readers new to NMR will find extensive information within the book on the available techniques, allowing full exploration of the many polymer science applications. Readers already established within a branch of NMR will find the book an excellent guide to the practical study of polymers and the inter­ pretation of experimental data. Readers who have specialised in polymer NMR will find the book a valuable dictionary of proven methodologies, as well as a guide to the very latest developments in the subject. Workers from all of the main branches of polymer NMR have been invited to contribute. Each chapter therefore contains information relating to a parti­ cular investigative topic, indentified mainly on the basis of technique. The book is loosely divided between solution and solid-state domains, although the numerous interconnections confirm that these two domains are parts of the same continuum. Basic principles are explained within each chapter, combined with discussions of experimental theory and applications. Examples of polymer investigations are covered generously and in many chapters there are discussions of the most recent theoretical and experimental developments.

About this title

Review

Its chapters form a coherent whole that covers the area of the title comprehensively and neatly...nicely produced, with good-quality diagrams, and it is amply referenced for further reading...There is also a substantial index. Altogether I believe this book is to be highly recommended to all polymer chemists interested in NMR and to all NMR spectroscopists involved with polymers - Trends in Polymer Science

Synopsis

This book provides a source of information on all the major aspects of NMR spectroscopy of synthetic polymers, pulling together the numerous strands of the subject in a single, comprehensive volume, which is directed at polymer scientists and NMR spectroscopists alike. Readers new to NMR should find extensive information in the book on the techniques available for the analysis of polymers. Readers already established in some branch of NMR should find the book a useful guide to a practical study of polymers and the interpretation of experimental data. For readers who have already specialized in polymer NMR, the book offers a directory of proven methodologies, as well as well as a guide to the latest developments in the subject. Within each chapter, basic principles are explained, followed by discussions of experimental theory and applications. Many examples of polymer investigations are included and three are discussions of the most recent theoretical and experimental developments. Exciting advances are occuring in both solution and solid-state polymer NMR, and this book provides an opportunity to establish the direction of research across the whole field.

The reference sections can be used as a direct route into the varied polymer and NMR oriented research literature.
