The book summarizes many of the recent technical research
accomplishments in the area of engineering polymers, such as oxygen
containing main chain polymers (Polyether and Polyesters).
The book emphasizes the various aspects of preparation,
structure, processing, morphology, properties and applications of
engineering polymers. Recent advances in the development and
characterization of multi component polymer blends and composites
(maco, micro and nano) based on engineering polymers are discussed
in detail. The content of the book is unique as there are no books
which deal with the recent advances synthesis, morphology,
structure, properties and applications of engineering polymers and
their blends and composites including nanocomposites. It
covers an up-to-date record on the major findings and observations
in the field.
