Materials Science of Polymers for Engineers
A textbook for engineering students familiar with the elements of design that describes how to apply those elements to polymer components. It covers basic principles, the influence of processing on properties, and engineering design properties. The 1995 edition has been augmented with examples and problems at the end of chapters, and a short history of polymers. Annotation ©2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
