Provides a one-stop source for up-to-date synthesis details, properties and applications of high performance engineering plastics. Over the last decade, several new families of high performance polymers and engineering plastics have been reported which find enhanced application potential in the more challenging industrial areas like aerospace, defense, energy, electronics, automotives, and special surface coatings. Such polymers provide an improved set of properties like higher service-temperatures at extreme conditions and good mechanical strength, dimensional stability, thermal degradation resistance, environmental stability, gas barrier, solvent resistance, and electrical properties. High Performance Polymers and Engineering Plastics presents the various categories of high performance polymers including poly(phenylene ether), polysulfones, poly(aryl ether ketone), poly(oxadiazole), poly(imide), poly(ether amide), poly(ether amide imide), poly(naphthalene), liquid crystalline polymers and poly(amide imide). It provides up-to-date synthesis details, properties, characterization, and applications for such systems in order to give readers and users better information to select the required material. The volume provides the following features: Inclusion of a wide range of high performance and engineering plastics Details on the synthesis and properties of each of the polymer Orientation towards the partical industrial applications Chapters from some of the world's most well-known and respected experts in the field
