Control of Polymer Structure and Properties through Extension

The definitive edition of the latest research examples in polymer extension!

This book collects the latest research examples related to the stretching of polymers and includes a wide range of content from the fundamental science of stretching to industrial processes. <Omitted> In a situation where understanding related to stretching has not sufficiently progressed, fresh insights are being accumulated through efforts utilizing novel measurement methods and new materials. The rich content and passionate introductions provided in many chapters reflect the deep commitment of each author to the topic of stretching. On the other hand, the book also features cutting-edge information and raw insights that can only be understood in the field, concerning the manufacturing of fibers, films, and bottles, as well as both basic experiments and actual manufacturing processes. I hope this book can contribute, even in a small way, to the advancement of research and development related to stretching. Yuji Marutani, Tokyo Institute of Technology (Excerpt from "Preface")
