Thermal Analysis: Fundamentals and Applications to Polymer Science

Thermal Analysis Fundamentals and Applications to Polymer Science T. Hatakeyama Otsuma Women′s University, Tokyo, Japan F. X. Quinn L′Oréal Recherche Advancée, Aulnay–sous–Bois, France The first edition of this classic book remains one of the very few introductory books covering both theoretical and practical aspects of thermal analysis (TA). This new edition includes a much enlarged section on MDSC, in which the instrument is described and a critical appraisal of the technique presented. Other additions include new sections on rate–controlled TGA, OTTER, and Specific Heat Spectroscopy, and a thoroughly updated section on X–Ray DSC. This very practical book is a must for people who use thermal analysis techniques in their everyday work. "An excellent introductory text" – Review of 1st Edition.
