Wiley - Molecular Simulation Methods for Predicting Polymer Properties

As thousands of new polymeric substances and materials emerge with unusual properties, researchers face a significant challenge in determining physical characteristics. This difficulty makes it hard to know how to synthesize polymers with the specific properties needed for advanced applications. This book by Wiley provides a solution by exploring how molecular modeling can predict the properties of realistic polymer systems. Rather than focusing solely on technical methods, this text is organized by specific properties. This structure allows readers to find the exact methods required to study a particular system. It serves as a practical guide for understanding how to use simulation tools to bridge the gap between synthesis and desired material outcomes. It is an essential resource for those working in organic chemistry and polymer science who need to ascertain how new materials will behave before they are even created.
