Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. How were the polymers which have transformed our world created? How has our understanding of polymers changed since the Swedish chemist Joens Jacob Berzelius coined the word polymer in 1832? Who were the people who wrought the polymer revolution? This book answers these questions by presenti…ng a compelling narrative that weaves together the history of polymer science, the development of new plastics and rubbers and biographies of the leading actors in this revolution.A key feature of the polymer revolution was the involvement of industry. The author shows how industry supported research in factories and universities and how academic research assisted the development of new polymers. As a result, empirical trial and error, which laid the foundations of a new industry, was replaced by systematic scientific research based on our improved understanding of the structure and behaviour of polymers. Containing an unparalleled collection of short biographies of over eighty people including both famous scientists such as Thomas Graham, Hermann Staudinger and Stephanie Kwolek and obscure figures like William Caspari, Hans Fikentscher, Ray McIntire and Wilfred Swinney, this history lists the part of human endeavour in the polymer revolution.This book is aimed at anyone who wishes to find out more about the history of this economically important interdisciplinary subject, which straddles chemistry, biology, physics and engineering. With illuminating and entertaining prose, the reader will discover a fascinating story of the development of polymer science and technology. Written in an accessible style, it appeals to school pupils studying chemistry and university students, historians of science, technology and the economy as well as polymer scientists. Presenting an overview of the history of polymer science, this book looks at the lives of polymer scientists to show how polymers have impacted the world around us. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
