Polymere: Synthese, Eigenschaften und Anwendungen
by Sebastian Koltzenburg Michael Maskos Oskar NuykenAusgezeichnet mit dem Literaturpreis des VCIPolymere sind einzigartige Moleküle und weisen Eigenschaften auf wie keine andere Materialklasse auf dieser Welt. Sie begegnen uns im täglichen Leben nicht nur in Form der bekannten, großvolumigen Kunststoffe wie PE oder PP oder der vielen weiteren, zum Teil hochgradig angepassten Spezialpolymere, sondern auch in der Natur als polymere Biomoleküle wie beispielsweise DNA. Unser Leben wäre daher so, wie wir es kennen, ohne Makromoleküle nicht nur vollkommen anders, sondern biologisch gar nicht möglich.Dieses Lehrbuch beschäftigt sich daher umfassend mit der Synthese, der Charakterisierung, den Eigenschaften und den Anwendungen von Polymeren. Ziel ist es, breite Kenntnisse der Grundbegriffe der makromolekularen Chemie und der einzigartigen Eigenschaften dieser Verbindungsklasse zu vermitteln. Auch umweltrelevante Themen wie Biopolymere und Mikroplastik, die in einem zeitgemäßen Lehrbuch nicht fehlen dürfen,werden behandelt.Aufbauend auf den Grundkenntnissen der organischen Chemie und der Thermodynamik präsentiert das Buch ein leicht verständliches und dennoch tiefgehendes Bild dieser sehr dynamischen und immer wichtiger werdenden Wissenschaft in der Schnittmenge von Chemie, Physik, Ingenieurwissenschaften und dem Life-Science-Sektor. Das Verständnis des Textes können Leserinnen und Leser dieses Werkes am Ende eines jeden Kapitels durch eine Auswahl an Übungsaufgaben überprüfen.Beim Verfassen des Buches wurde großer Wert auf gute Lesbarkeit trotz der erforderlichen Detailtiefe gelegt – ein Buch, das sich für Studierende der Chemie und verwandter Studiengänge genauso eignet wie für den angewandten Naturwissenschaftler im industriellen Umfeld. Als erstes und bisher einziges Lehrbuch der Polymerchemie wurde daher bereits die erste Auflage dieses Werks 2015 mit dem Literaturpreis des Fonds des Verbandes der Chemischen Industrie ausgezeichnet.
