Summary
  • The science and technology of surfaces and interfaces are playing an increasingly important role in the polymer field. This book presents a comprehensive approach to all aspects of polymer surfaces, from fundamentals through to applications.
  • Polymer Surfaces - From Physics to Technology is divided into four main sections. Firstly the origins and physical principles governing the properties of polymer surfaces are considered. Next the authors discuss methods of characterization, particularly spectroscopic, and those connected to surface energetics.
  • The third section deals with the modification of polymer surface properties whilst the final theme is applications, covering such topics as wettability, adhesion, biocompatibility, and wear and friction, taking into account relevant patent literature. This volume effectively bridges the gap between scientists and technologists and will prove essential reading for anyone working in the field.
