Thermal Analysis of Polymers (ePub)

Joseph D. Menczel, PhD, a recognized expert in thermal analysis
of polymers with some thirty years of industrial and academic
experience, is Assistant Technical Director at Alcon Laboratories.
He has researched more than 120 polymeric systems in which he
studied calibration of DSCs, glass transition, nucleation,
crystallization, melting, stability, mechanical and
micro-mechanical properties of polymers, and polymer-water
interactions. Dr. Menczel holds six patents and is the author of
seventy scholarly papers. He is the author of two chapters in the
bookThermal Characterization of Polymeric Materials. In conducting
DSC experiments, Dr. Menczel found a crystal/amorphous interface in
semicrystalline polymers, which later became known as the rigid
amorphous phase. He is also credited with developing the
temperature calibration of DSCs for cooling experiments.

R. Bruce Prime, PhD, is a consultant to industry and government
and a recognized authority on the cure and properties of
cross-linked polymer systems. During his thirty-year career with
IBM, he led teams responsible for developing and implementing
polymer applications for printer and information storage
technologies. He holds four patents and is the author of more than
fifty technical papers and the chapter on thermosets in Thermal
Characterization of Polymeric Materials. Dr. Prime is a Fellow of
SPE and NATAS and was the 1989 recipient of the Mettler-Toledo
Award in Thermal Analysis. He maintains the Web site
www.primethermosets.com.
