Overview

A large amount of experimental data has been published since the debut of the original CRC Handbook of Thermodynamic Data of Aqueous Polymer Solutions. Incorporating new and updated material, the CRC Handbook of Phase Equilibria and Thermodynamic Data of Aqueous Polymer Solutions provides a comprehensive collection of thermodynamic data of polymer solutions. It helps readers quickly retrieve necessary information from the literature, and assists researchers in planning new measurements where data are missing. A valuable resource for the modern chemistry field, the Handbook clearly details how measurements were conducted and methodically explains the nomenclature. It presents data essential for the production and use of polymers as well as for understanding the physical behavior and intermolecular interactions in polymer solutions.

[The book] is a must for any alternative medicine holding, and offers an alternative approach to treating hypertension. It analyzes these treatments based clinical research from authoritative medical journals, explaining how blood pressure works, describing common causes of hypertension, and reviewing medications and their side effects...a solid reference for any health care provider. -James A. Cox, Editor-in-Chief, Midwest Book Review The material is well organized and its presentation meets highest standards. Even in the days of easy internet access to information the present compilation is of invaluable help for students and faculty likewise. For scientists working in the fields of chemistry, chemical engineering, material science, physics, and biotechnology the Handbook of Phase Equilibria and Thermodynamic Data of Aqueous Polymer Solutions undoubtedly constitutes an indispensable source of information. It can therefore be recommended without reservations of any kind. -Dr. Bernhard Wolf, Institut fur Physikalische Chemie, Universitat Mainz, Germany

Author Information

Christian Wohlfarth is associate professor for physical chemistry at Martin-Luther University Halle-Wittenberg, Germany. He earned his degree in chemistry in 1974 and wrote his Ph.D. thesis in 1977 on investigations of the second dielectric virial coefficient and the intermolecular pair potential, both at Carl Schorlemmer Technical University Merseburg. In 1985, he wrote his habilitation thesis, Phase Equilibria in Systems with Polymers and Copolymers, at the Technical University Merseburg. Since then, Dr. Wohlfarth’s main research has been related to polymer systems. Currently, his research topics are molecular thermodynamics, continuous thermodynamics, phase equilibria in polymer mixtures and solutions, polymers in supercritical fluids, PVT behavior and equations of state, and sorption properties of polymers, about which he has published approximately 100 original papers. He has written the following books: Vapor-Liquid Equilibria of Binary Polymer Solutions, CRC Handbook of Thermodynamic Data of Copolymer Solutions, CRC Handbook of Thermodynamic Data of Aqueous Polymer Solutions, CRC Handbook of Thermodynamic Data of Polymer Solutions at Elevated Pressures, CRC Handbook of Enthalpy Data of Polymer-Solvent Systems, CRC Handbook of Liquid-Liquid Equilibrium Data of Polymer Solutions, and CRC Handbook of Phase Equilibria and Thermodynamic Data of Copolymer Solutions. He is working on the evaluation, correlation, and calculation of thermophysical properties of pure compounds and binary mixtures resulting in 11 volumes of the Landolt-Börnstein New Series. He is a contributor to the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics.
