Synopsis

Vibrational spectroscopy is advantageous as an analytical tool for polymers and comprises two complementary techniques: infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopy. This report is an absorbing overview of how these methods can be employed to provide information about complex polymeric macromolecules with respect to composition, structure, conformation and intermolecular interactions. The review is supported by several hundred abstracts selected from the Rapra Polymer Library database giving useful references for further reading.

About the Author

Bryan Crowther has an extensive knowledge of the rubber industry having been involved with it for his entire working life. His career started at the Research Association of British Rubber Manufacturers (later to become Rapra Technology). His industrial experience started with Stalybridge Rubber where he first became involved with bonding of rubber to metals and plastics. This knowledge was used to advantage when he joined BTR at Burton-upon-Trent, becoming Technical Manager responsible for a wide range of products involving bonding to various substrates. Joining Uniroyal Technical Service Group he was involved with the solution of customers problems and general technical service to the European rubber industry. His bonding experience was further enhanced when he joined Woodville Rubber Company as Executive Technical Manager developing compounds for aircraft wing slot seal and many fabric rubber related composite products, together with a wide range of rubber to metal products incorporating all available rubber types.
