Rezension

`
The structure and presentation are excellent. It is a major contribution to the literature on polymer technology and will undoubtedly be widely read.
'

Chemistry and Industry

`
It will be of interest to polymer scientists in academia and industry, to environmental scientists, R&D scientists working on packaging, hygiene and agricultural applications, and biomedical scientists working on controlled drug release and prosthetics.
