Product Description
Review
The second edition of this book is currently the recommended text for a second year undergraduate lecture course I deliver. In future I will recommend the third edition for both this course and a fourth year (Masters) lecture course on advanced polymer synthesis. Moreover, not only have Young and Lovell produced an excellent text (again) for supporting undergraduate teaching, this book is also a superb entry level text for postgraduates students with limited experience of polymers.

Format:Paperback
Very good introduction to the field, has become by Bible whilst writing my Thesis, and helped me throughout my Undergraduate studies
Format:Paperback
Nice introduction for starter chemist, easy and comprehensible. I read more this book than the famous polymer bible of G.ODIAN.

THE introductory text for polymers
24 Sep 2000
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a lovely introductory text for polymer science, hitting on all the major concepts of characterization, structure, mechanical properties, and synthesis. Topics are covered very concisely, but with sufficient detail to be useful in several different graduate level courses on polymers. Great background for understanding Flory-Huggins theory, chain dimensions. And an excellent price as well! Just my opinions as a grad student in some polymers courses...

Interesting Basic Mechanical properties
31 Mar 2000
Format:Paperback
This is an interesting introducing to basic properties on polymers. Specialy chapter five, wich talks about mechanical properties. I would recommend this book as a guide text for an introductory course to polymers, specily on mechanical properties. The mathematical treatment is just enough, without unnecesary ecuations but clear and simple.

Best place to start for polymers
6 July 2001
Format:Paperback
An excellent and a must read for anyone with an interest in polymeric materials. It easily is the best introductory book on the subject and I'd recommend it to all students - believe it - i've been taught by the authors! I only wish they'd also write on more specialized topics in Polymer Science.
