Editorial Reviews

Eighteen papers from an August 1996 conference in Orlando, Florida address the development of new modified polymeric materials for a variety of specialty applications that use the chemistry-on-polymers approach. Subject areas include grafting and chemical oxidation, inorganic-containing and shaped polymers, various chemical modifications, and reactions with vinyl polymers.
