Integrating coverage of polymers and biological macromolecules into a single text, Physical Chemistry of Macromolecules is carefully structured to provide a clear and consistent resource for beginners and professionals alike. The basic knowledge of both biophysical and physical polymer chemistry is covered, along with important terms, basic structural properties and relationships. This book includes end of chapter problems and references, and also: Enables users to improve basic knowledge of biophysical chemistry and physical polymer chemistry. Explores fully the principles of macromolecular chemistry, methods for determining molecular weight and configuration of molecules, the structure of macromolecules, and their separations.Content: Chapter 1 Introduction (pages 1–18): Chapter 2 Syntheses of Macromolecular Compounds (pages 19–51): Chapter 3 Distribution of Molecular Weight (pages 52–66): Chapter 4 Macromolecular Thermodynamics (pages 67–95): Chapter 5 Chain Configurations (pages 96–126): Chapter 6 Liquid Crystals (pages 127–149): Chapter 7 Rubber Elasticity (pages 150–164): Chapter 8 Viscosity and Viscoelasticity (pages 165–197): Chapter 9 Osmotic Pressure (pages 198–222): Chapter 10 Diffusion (pages 223–242): Chapter 11 Sedimentation (pages 243–266): Chapter 12 Optical Rotatory Dispersion and Circular Dichroism (pages 267–283): Chapter 13 High?Performance Liquid Chromatography and Electrophoresis (pages 284–319): Chapter 14 Light Scattering (pages 320–347): Chapter 15 Fourier Series (pages 348–370): Chapter 16 Small?Angle X?Ray Scattering, Neutron Scattering, and Laser Light Scattering (pages 371–398): Chapter 17 Electronic and Infrared Spectroscopy (pages 399–435): Chapter 18 Protein Molecules (pages 436–454): Chapter 19 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (pages 455–496): Chapter 20 X?Ray Crystallography (pages 497–534):
