Polymers and Neutron Scattering

Zusatztext ...even if polymer physics achieves maturity this book will remain of lasting value as a lucid description of what neutron scattering can contribute to this kind of physics. Klappentext The application of neutron scattering to polymers provides information which cannot be obtained by other techniques and has allowed progress in our understanding of polymer conformation in the bulk. This book presents examples which are needed to understand how these techniques can be applied. It is specifically written to introduce the newcomer and non-expert in physics or chemistry to the experimental techniques and the basic theory necessary to understand the results. Zusammenfassung The application of neutron scattering to polymers has been extremely successful during the last two decades. This book presents, for the first time, both the theories and experimental examples which are needed to understand how these techniques can be applied. Now available in paperback for the first time this book is specifically written to introduce the newcomer and non-expert to the experimental techniques and the basic theory necessary to understand the results.
