FROM THE REVIEWS:

POLYMER NEWS
"The first part . . . is a good practical coverage of theory and applications of Infrared, Raman, UV-VIS, Mass, NMR, X-Ray Diffraction, Atomic Emission, Atomic Absorption Methods, in every case with a utilitarian orientation. There is also a short but helpful chapter on methods for separating additives from plastics. The coverage is strong on methods of interpreting the instrument data for identification purposes, and there are many useful tables of characteristic infrared band assignments, mass fragment assignments, and the like. . . . It is likely that the book will prove to be a valuable tool . . . The first part of the book could provide a 'quick study' or refresher for industrial chemists getting started in various techniques of polymer analysis."
