This reference contains more than 7,500 polymeric material terms, including the names of chemicals, processes, formulae, and analytical methods that are used frequently in the polymer and engineering fields. This lavishly illustrated title includes an appendix of biochemical and microbiological terms, thus offering previously unpublished material making the book distinct from all competitors. Interactive equations on the accompanying DVD bring important relationships to life, and audio supplements include pronunciation of each term. Each succinct entry offers a broadly accessible definition as well as cross-references to related terms.

Of interest to chemists, polymer scientists, materials scientists, chemical engineers, and other academics and technicians interested in adhesives, coatings, elastomers, inks, plastics, and textiles
