9780841215481: Polymers in Aqueous Media: Performance Through Association (Advances in Chemistry Series)

Synopsis

This volume is the first systematic review of surfactant-modified, water-soluble polymers. The authors, representing leaders in their fields, offer practical information about associative thickeners and polymer surfactants, including spectroscopic and rheological analysis of these water-soluble polymers in aqueous solutions. In addition, aqueous gels of varying chemical types are studied with respect to their properties in numerous applications. Among the topics covered are: aqueous gels; surfactant-modified, water-soluble polymers; polyelectrolyte synthesis; elongational viscosity; and fluorescence phenomena of water-soluble polymers.

Review

"This is a significant collection of papers in this important area and is part of the ACS Symposium Series(765). . .This is a good collection of original research papers dealing with the area of water soluble and/or interactive polymer systems. There are references which include 1999 showing
the timeliness of this publication."--Polymer News
