The only comprehensive reference on polymer crystallization, Handbook of Polymer Crystallization provides readers with a broad, in-depth guide on the subject, covering the numerous problems encountered during crystallization as well as solutions to resolve those problems to achieve the desired result. Edited by leading authorities in the field, topics explored include neat polymers, heterogeneous systems, polymer blends, polymer composites orientation in 606 $aCrystalline polymers 606 $aPolymers 615 0$aCrystalline polymers. 615 0$aPolymers. 676 $a547/.7 701 $aPiorkowska$b Ewa$0941569 701 $aRutledge$b Gregory Charles$0941570 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910139055803321 996 $aHandbook of polymer crystallization$92124140 997 $aUNINA
