By taking a function based approach, rather than a “polymer specific” approach the book illustrates how polymer structure leads to effect, and shows how different polymer types can be employed to achieve appropriate product properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e1 Introduction. \u003cp\u003e2 Natural thickeners.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Acrylic polymers as rheology modifiers for water-based solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Gelling agents.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Emulsification and encapsulation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Polymeric flocculants.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Polymer micelles: amphiphilic block and graft copolymers as polymeric surfactants.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Applications of water soluble dendrimers.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Preparation, properties and applications of colloidal microgels.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Industrial water soluble polymers in packaging\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Chemistry [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Chemistry\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Chemistry%20%5BPN%5D%22\"\u003ePN\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52437766504728,"sku":"9781405132428","price":129.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781405132428.jpg?v=1784938813","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/handbook-of-industrial-water-soluble-polymers-hardback-9781405132428","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
