Rheology and processing of liquid crystal polymers /

This book explains the principles underlying the flow of liquid crystal polymers and of blends involving these materials, and how the rheological properties influence processing behaviour. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with rheology, but not with liquid crystalline polymers. It is writte...
