β¦ Synopsis
"Polymeric crystals are more complex in nature than other materials' crystal structures due to significant structural disorder present. In fact, they actually exist in a semicrystalline state where the crystals are embedded in an amorphous phase to create a highly interconnected network. Presenting an in-depth and current overview of polymer crystals, Crystals and Crystallinity in Polymers provides researchers, engineers, and graduate students with guidelines to help select the proper crystallization method, evaluate polymer crystallization data, determine which methods to utilize for particular cases, and understand the different analytical techniques utilized"--;Configuration and Conformation of Macromolecules in Polymer Crystals -- Packing of macromolecules in polymer crystals -- X-ray diffraction -- Defects and Disorder in Polymer Crystals -- Methods of Analysis of Diffuse Scattering from Disordered Structures of Polymers -- Crystal habit -- Influence of Crystal Defects and Structural Disorder on the Physical and Mechanical Properties of Polymeric Materials. .;"This book provides a comprehensive explanation and overview of the complex topic of polymer crystallography in a way that enables readers to evaluate polymer crystallization data and determine which methods to utilize for particular cases"--

Superb study begins with fundamentals of x-ray diffraction theory using Fourier transforms, then applies general results to various atomic structures, amorphous bodies, crystals and imperfect crystals. Elementary laws of X-ray diffraction on crystals follow as special case. Highly useful for solid-s
This clearly illustrated explanation the basic principles of crystals may be used as a text or supplementary sourcebook by high-school students (for which it was originally written), students at the junior college or undergraduate level, or the gene
The book is a good, undergraduate level introduction to crystallography. It describes the basic concepts, like a Bravais lattice, and the 230 space groups. The key idea to grasp is symmetry. And how this can lead to tiling in two or three dimensions. Giving rise to such structures as a body centred
