Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
This book provides a comprehensive and structured overview of polymer science and engineering, catering to students, researchers, and industry professionals seeking to understand the fundamentals as well as the latest advancements in the field. Organized into five well-defined sections, it systematically covers the basic principles, synthesis methods, processing techniques, characterization tools, and a wide range of real-world applications of polymers.
The first section introduces readers to the foundational concepts of polymer science, including the molecular structure, polymerization techniques, and the physical properties that influence polymer performance in practical settings. It builds a strong conceptual framework for understanding how polymers behave and how their structure determines their utility.
The second section delves into the diversity of polymers, from commodity plastics to cutting-edge materials such as biodegradable polymers, conductive polymers, and nanocomposites. It highlights the synthesis routes and engineering potential of each type, offering insights into how specific polymers are tailored for particular uses.
Section three focuses on polymer processing and characterization, presenting the techniques used in industrial manufacturing (e.g., extrusion, injection molding, 3D printing) and analytical methods like spectroscopy and thermal analysis that reveal material properties and quality.
The fourth section emphasizes the vast application domains of polymers, exploring their roles in biomedicine, electronics, automotive and aerospace sectors, and green technologies. This section bridges theory with practice, demonstrating the tangible impact of polymer science on modern life.
Finally, the book concludes with emerging trends and challenges such as polymer recycling, smart materials, AI-driven research, and space technology applications positioning the reader to appreciate the dynamic future of this rapidly evolving discipline.
