The Springer Handbook of Functional Polymers provides digested information of the fundamentals and major developments in the topics of functional polymers.

This handbook consists of six parts. The first part offers detailed descriptions of the fundamentals of functional polymers and introduces various types of functional polymers. It also mentions bio-related polymers and materials informatics. The subsequent two parts, conjugated polymers and inorganic polymers, present polymers from the point of view of their building blocks including information on their synthesis. The next two parts presenting photo-functional polymers and electronic polymers, particularly focus on their functions including their applications in electronic devices. The last part deals with polymers important for structural materials. Each part includes contributions written by internationally renowned authors who are authorities in their fields.

The chapters of this handbook offer quick, but authoritative descriptions of topics in the field of functional polymers and the practical use of them. Researchers and industry professionals with many different backgrounds who need to have an understanding of various aspects of functional polymers will find it highly valuable. It is also useful for graduate and undergraduate students studying
