Recently, supercritical fluids have emerged as more sustainable alternatives for the organic solvents often used in polymer processes. This is the first book emphasizing the potential of supercritical carbon dioxide for polymer processes from an engineering point of view. It develops a state-of-the-art overview on polymer fundamentals, polymerization reactions and polymer processing in supercritical carbon dioxide. The book covers topics in a multidisciplinary approach starting from polymer chemistry and thermodynamics, going through monitoring, polymerization processes and ending with polymer shaping and post-processing.
The authors are internationally recognized experts from different fields in polymer reaction engineering in supercritical fluids. The book was initiated by the Working Party on Polymer Reaction Engineering of the European Federation of Chemical Engineering and further renowned international experts.
"This book deserves attention, even by the nonspecialist who is considering scCO2 as a potential solvent for a polymer chemistry research programme."
Angewandte Chemie I.E.
"In summary, the two editors have done an excellent job of putting together a very useful book that provides an excellent introduction, and a thorough update for those who are already working in the field."
Advanced Materials
"Fazit: Dieses Buch über die Verwendung von überkritischem CO2 als Lösungsmittel in der Polymerchemie verdient größte Aufmerksamkeit und kann auch Nichtspezialisten, die einen Einstieg in das Gebiet suchen, empfohlen werden."
Angewandte Chemie
"Jeder der Autoren ist anerkannter Experte auf seinem Gebiet und begleitet die Diskussion mit Resultaten der eigenen Forschung. Insbesondere die ersten beiden Grundlagenkapitel zeigen, welch tiefgreifende Einsichten moderne Untersuchungsmethoden erlauben. Damit erscheint dieses Buch für Einsteiger in dieses Arbeitsgebiet wie auch für Fachleute gleichermaßen eine wertvolle Lektüre."
