The “Springer Series on Polymer and Composite Materials” publishes monographs
and edited works in the areas of Polymer Science and Composite Materials. These
compound classes form the basis for the development of many new materials
for various applications. The series covers biomaterials, nanomaterials, polymeric
nanofibers, and electrospun materials, polymer hybrids, composite materials from
macro- to nano-scale, and many more; from fundamentals, over the synthesis and
development of the new materials, to their applications. The authored or edited books
in this series address researchers and professionals, academic and industrial chemists
involved in the areas of Polymer Science and the development of new Materials. They
cover aspects such as the chemistry, physics, characterization, and material science
of Polymers, and Polymer and Composite Materials. The books in this series can
serve a growing demand for concise and comprehensive treatments of specific topics
in this rapidly growing field. The series will be interesting for researchers working in
this field and cover the latest advances in polymers and composite materials. Potential
topics include, but are not limited to:
Fibers and Polymers:
• Lignocellulosic biomass and natural fibers
• Polymer nanofibers
• Polysaccharides and their derivatives
• Conducting polymers
• Surface functionalization of polymers
• Bio-inspired and stimuli-responsive polymers
• Shape-memory and self-healing polymers
• Hydrogels
• Rubber
• Polymeric foams
• Biodegradation and recycling of polymers
Bio- and Nano- Composites:• Fiber-reinforced composites including both long and short fibers
• Wood-based composites
• Polymer blends
• Hybrid materials (organic-inorganic)
• Nanocomposite hydrogels
• Mechanical behavior of composites
• The Interface and Interphase in polymer composites
• Biodegradation and recycling of polymer composites
• Applications of composite materials
