Designed for polymer and materials engineering students, the text introduces polymer chemistry through polymers found in nature. It explains biobased polymer systems and synthetic systems by exploring the chemistry of natural polymers from plants and animals, as well as self-assembled macromolecular structures, including proteins, lignin, protamers, and fibers. Also covered are synthetic polymerization and emerging advances in green polymer chemistry, including detailed explanations of green syntheses.
