Polymers in solution: their modelling and structure

This book is devoted to the static properties of flexible polymers in solution. It presents the progress made by both theory and experiment in the years upto its original publication in 1990, and remains one of the most advanced books available on the subject. INDICE: 1: Polymers and Polymer Solutions; 2: General Description of Long Chains, Universality, Critical Phenomena, and Scaling Laws; 3: MathematicalModels of Chains: Static Properties; 4: Computer Experiments; 5: Osmotic Pressure and Density; 6: Radiation Scattering; 7: Study of the Structure of a Solution by Small-Angle Scattering; 8: Repulsive Chains - Old Theories; 9: The Grand Canonical Formalism; 10: Standard Continuous Model and Perturbation Calculations; 11: Relations between Chain Theory and Field Theory: Laplace-De Gennes Transformation; 12: Renormalization and Criticality; 13: Polymers in Solution in Good Solvents: Theoretical Results; 14: Partially Attractive Chains: Theoretical Results; 15: Polymers in Good Solvents: Experimental Results; 16: Partially Attractive Chains: Experimental Results
