This convenient, bench-top manual highlights typical preparative methods for a wide range of polymer types. The Sourcebook emphasizes practical laboratory procedures for a selection of syntheses that are representative of a given class of starting materials and polymerization techniques. The choice of material reflects the extensive industrial experience of the authors, saves on tedious literature searching when planning laboratory procedures, and includes specific laboratory directions that can be used as models for many related preparations.

Polymer Syntheses, Volume III provides useful polymer synthesis information. The book discusses the olefin-sulfur dioxide copolymers; the polythioesters; and sulphide polymers. The text also describes polymerizations reactions of mono and diisocyanates; polyoxyalkylation of hydroxyl compounds; and polymerization reactions of N-vinyl carbazole and related monomers. The polymerization of vinyl acetate and other vinyl esters; the polymerization of allyl esters; and the polymerization of vinyl fluoride are also considered. The book further tackles miscellaneous polymer preparations.

Organic Functional Group Preparations, Volume III describes 13 organic functional groups and presents a critical review of their available methods of synthesis with preparative examples of each. The book puts special attention to the presentation of specific laboratory directions for the many name reactions used in describing the synthesis of these functional groups. Each chapter deals with the preparation of a given functional group by various reaction types (condensation, elimination, oxidation, reduction) and a variety of starting materials. Acetals and ketals, anhydrides, and thiohydroxamic acids are some of the organic functional groups described in the text. Organic chemists will find the book invaluable.
