8. Advanced characterization methods of inorganic polymers
-
Narendra Pal Singh Chauhan
Abstract
The characterization of polymers is aimed at improving the performance of polymeric materials. Many characterization techniques increase the properties of materials such as thermal stability, strength, impermeability, and optical properties. The techniques of characterization are mainly used for the determination of the mass of molecules, the structure of molecules, its morphology, and thermal and mechanical properties.
