Structure and Properties of Oriented Polymers

Abstract

In the main, the scope of this book and its coverage of the various aspects of the subject do justice to the title. However, it is a little disappointing that consideration of high-modulus forms of oriented polymers is virtually confined to the aromaticpolymer fibres: in a book of this kind appearing under Professor Ward's editorship, some discussion would be welcome of the interesting new work on the inducement and effects of super-orientation in polyolefins.
