An understanding of processes occurring in the polymerization reactor is therefore crucial to achieving efficient, consistent, safe and environmentally friendly production of polymeric materials.Polymer Reaction Engineering provides the link between the fundamentals of polymerization kinetics and polymer microstructure achieved in the reactor. Organized according to the type of polymerization, each chapter starts with a description of the mainPolymerizationPolymer engineeringPolymerization.Polymer engineering.668.9/2Asua Jose M0MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910816205503321Polymer reaction engineering2182933UNINA
