Overview

Field responsive polymers, or smart polymers, will play a key role in the emergence of a wide array of new devices such as those manufactured by the aerospace, communications, and biomedical industries. The twenty-two chapters in this volume present state-of-the-art research and discuss some of the potential applications of electroresponsive, photoresponsive, and responsive polymers in chemistry and biology. Topics discussed include: microwave active responsive polymers; the design of solid polymer electrolytes for electrochromic devices; thin films for electro-optic modular applications, photorefractive and NLO polymers; thermoreversible polymers and the application of responsive polymers in peptide drug delivery systems. This comprehensive resource is perfect for polymer scientists, materials scientists, and physicists.
