Advances in Polymer Science enjoys a longstanding tradition and good reputation in its
community. Each volume is dedicated to a current topic and each review critically surveys one
aspect of that topic to place it within the context of the volume. The volumes typically
summarize the significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years and discuss them critically
presenting selected examples explaining and illustrating the important principles and bringing
together many important references of primary literature. On that basis future research
directions in the area can be discussed. Advances in Polymer Science volumes thus are important
references for every polymer scientist as well as for other scientists interested in polymer
science - as an introduction to a neighboring field or as a compilation of detailed
information for the specialist.
