Thermal analysis of polymers, fundamentals and applications

This book focuses on the practical aspects of Thermal Analysis of Polymers asan everyday characterization tool in laboratories. The book provides some necessary theoretical background, but mainly serves as a guide to performing thermal analysis tests, and interpreting the data thus obtained. This book will beuseful to chemists and engineers who are new to thermal analysis techniques, and to existing users of thermal analysis who must expand their experience to new techniques and applications. Experts in various areas of thermal analysis contributed chapters to this book. Topics include Differential Scanning Calorimetry and differential thermal analysis (DSC/DTA), Thermogravimetry, Thermomechanical Analysis and Dilatometry, Dynamic Mechanical Analysis, Micro-Thermal Analysis, Hot Stage Microscopy, and Instrumentation. Relevant and detailed experiments and examples follow each chapter.
