This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the study of polymers. Its targeted audience includes undergraduates in the areas of physical sciences and engineering, and industry professionals new to the field of polymers. Special emphasis is given to the characteristics that set polymers apart from small molecules, as studied in classic chemistry courses. The various branches of polymer science Polymer science or macromolecular science is the subfield of materials science concerned with polymers, primarily synthetic polymers such as plastics. The field of polymer science includes researchers in multiple disciplines including chemistry, physics, and engineering.  are introduced and discussed in a systematic manner, starting from basic chemical structures, continuing through super molecular organization and physical properties.
