Conformations: Connecting the Chemical Structures and Material Behaviors of Polymers
Autor Alan E. Tonelli, Jialong Shenen Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 apr 2020
The authors examine the connections between the microstructures of polymers and the rich variety of physical properties they evidence. Detailed polymer architectures, including the molecular bonding and geometries of backbone and side-chain groups, monomer stereo- and regiosequences, comonomer sequences, and branching, are explicitly considered in the analysis of the conformational characteristics of polymers.
This valuable reference provides practicing materials engineers as well as polymer and materials science students a means of understanding the differences in behaviors and properties of materials made from chemically distinct polymers. This knowledge can assist the reader design polymers with chemical structures that lead to their desired material behaviors and properties.

Notă biografică
Alan Tonelli, born in Chicago in 1942,
received a BS in Chemical Engineering
from the University of Kansas, in 1964 and
a PhD in Polymer Chemistry from Stanford
in 1968, where he was associated with the
late “Father of Polymer Science” and
Nobelist Professor Paul J. Flory. He was a
member of the Polymer Chemistry Research
Department at AT&T-BELL Laboratories,
Murray Hill, NJ for 23 years. In 1991, he
joined the Textile Engineering, Chemistry, & Science Department and the
Fiber & Polymer Science Program in the College of Textiles at North
Carolina State University in Raleigh, where he is currently the
INVISTA Prof. of Fiber & Polymer Chemistry. Professor Tonelli’s research
interests include the conformations, configurations, and structures of synthetic
and biological polymers, their determination by NMR, and establishing
their effects on the physical properties of polymer materials. More
recently, the formation, study, and use of inclusion complexes formed with
polymers and small molecule guests, such as urea and cyclodextrins, to
nanostructure and safely deliver biologically active molecules to polymer
materials have been the focus of his research.
Jialong Shen, born in Hangzhou, China, in
1987, received a PhD in Fiber and Polymer
Science from North Carolina State
University, North Carolina, United States,
in 2017. His research interests include the
molecular basis of polymer glass transitions,
host-guest supramolecular chemistry, and
the applications of bio-macromolecules
such as carbohydrate polymers and enzymes.
He is currently a postdoctoral research
scholar in the Textile Engineering, Chemistry, & Science Department at
North Carolina State University.

Descriere
The authors provide both the polymer/materials science student and practicing materials engineer a means of understanding the differences in behaviors/properties of materials made from chemically distinct polymers. This knowledge can assist them in designing polymers with chemical structures that lead to their desired material behaviors and properties. The reader will learn how the detailed chemical structures of polymers can be characterized, how their microstructural depenedent conformational preferences can be evaluated , and how these conformational preferences can by connected to the behaviors and properties of their materials.
