Polymer Research in Microgravity Polymerization and Processing ACS Symposium Series, Vol. No. 793

Langue : Anglais

Coordonnateurs : Pojman John A., Downey James Patton

Sixteen papers examine how gravity can affect polymerizations and polymer processing and how weightlessness or "microgravity" is achieved. The volume reviews the current research from sounding rocket and orbital investigations, parabolic flight investigations, and ground-based research. Also covered are inorganic to biologically produced polymers, including free-radical polymerization, polymer-dispersed luquid crystals and foams.
