Comprehensive Polymer Science: The Synthesis, Characterization, Reactions & Applications of Polymers - Chain Polymerization Part I, Vol.3

Volume 3 contains over 50 chapters describing chain polymerization and covers general characteristics, free-radical polymerization, anionic polymerization and cationic polymerization.

12 October 1989 ...here is a truly scholarly work which in many chapters transcends the usual review style and presents a critical survey of the topics under discussion... Invaluable for representative views on the present state of development of certain models and theories. -- Polymer News

March 1990 These seven volumes... Represent one of the most significant contributions to the reference literature on synthetic polymers. The index of 250 authors reads like a "Who's Who" of comtemporary polymer science... Every academic and industrial polymer group should have a set. -- Chemistry in Australia

September 1993 ...the chapters presented in this supplement are excellent and provide the reader with a balanced and up-to-date summary of a range of important topics in polymer science... This book maintains the standard set in the original seven volume work and is a valuable resource for those involved in teaching polymer science. -- R.A. Pethrick, Chemistry in Britain
