Synopsis:

Presenting the various techniques used to analyze the microstructure of polymers, this work describes both high resolution solution and solid state techniques and presents applications to both synthetic and biological polymers. The book also demonstrates the connection between microstructures conformation, and NMR spectra of polymers. The goal of the book is to allow polymer scientists to determine more readily the microstructures and conformations of polymers via NMR spectroscopy. Examples connecting the NMR spectra of polymers to their microstructure and conformations are included.

About the Author: Alan Tonelli received a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Kansas in 1964 and a Ph.D. in Polymer Chemistry from Stanford in 1968, where he was associated with the late Professor Paul J. Flory. He was a member of the Polymer Chemistry Research Department at AT&T–Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, NJ, for 23 years and in 1991 joined the Fiber & Polymer Science Program in the College of Textiles at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, NC, where he is currently the INVISTA Professor of Fiber and Polymer Chemistry. His research interests include the configurations, conformations, and structures of synthetic and biological polymers, their determination, principally by NMR and Kerr effect observations, and establishing their effects on the physical properties of polymer materials. Most recently, the formation of and coalescence from noncovalent crystalline inclusion compounds (ICs) formed between cyclodextrin (CD) hosts and polymer guests have been used to nanostructure bulk polymers, including homopolymers and their blends, and block copolymers. In addition, small–molecule guest–CD–ICs (crystalline) and –rotaxanes (soluble), and the covalent incorporation of CDs into polymers both during and subsequent to their syntheses, have been used to improve the delivery of additives to polymer materials.
