Polymer testing new instrumental methods /
Polymers are complex in nature, and their utility depends on mechanism and process conditions. They become even more complex as a result of blends, composites, and branched and graft structures of unusual architecture. The polymerization must be carefully controlled to obtain the desired properties...
