Though the discussion and examples concentrate on polymer materials, Part II illustrates the potential universality of the proposed most recent treatment ? a Cooperative Theory of Materials Dynamics (CTMD) ? and its ability to portray the 11 major physical characteristics of the materials' behavior by an alternative view of the thermal equilibrium and non-equilibrium dynamics at the "micro-scale", the still challenging problem of the glass transition and glass transition temperature, how partial crosslinking or crystallization limits the response, the expected impact of molecular packing, and of a few other open challenges. Part III discusses three specific domains where new applications and extensions of CTMD might be explored, while three Appendixes collect a few quantitative details and extensions of the treatment. 410 0$aSpringer Series in Materials Science,$x2196-2812 ;$v342 606 $aCondensed matter 606 $aAtoms 606 $aMolecules 606 $aMaterials$xAnalysis 606 $aCondensed Matter Physics 606 $aAtomic, Molecular and Chemical Physics 606 $aCondensed Matter 606 $aMaterials Characterization Technique 615 0$aCondensed matter. 615 0$aAtoms. 615 0$aMolecules. 615 0$aMaterials$xAnalysis. 615 14$aCondensed Matter Physics. 615 24$aAtomic, Molecular and Chemical Physics. 615 24$aCondensed Matter. 615 24$aMaterials Characterization Technique. 676 $a530.413 700 $aPinto$b Jose?
