Fortschritte Der Hochpolymerenforschung Advances in Polymer Science

During the last 10 years there has been increasing interest in the design and synthesis of both oligomeric and polymeric systems that fold into welldefined secondary structures.

Emerging Mass Spectrometric Tools for Analysis of Polymers and Polymer Additives, by Nina Aminlashgari and Minna Hakkarainen. Analysis of Polymer Additives and Impurities by Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry and Capillary Electrophoresis/Mass Spectrometry, by Wolfgang Buchberger and Martin Stiftinger.

Control of polymeric structure is among the most important endeavours of modern macromolecular science. In particular, tailoring the positioning and strength of intermolecular forces within macromolecules by synthetic meth-ods and thus gaining structural control over the final polymeric materials has become feasible, resulting in the field of supramolecular polymer science.
