Summary

Summary

This volume provides a comprehensive treatment of the state of science and technology in the area of barrier polymers and barrier structures. Among the topics covered in its 20 chapters are structure-property relationships of Saran materials and nylons; approaches to engineering around the sensitivity of barrier polymers to humidity; characterization of sorption kinetics in several glassy polymers for a broad spectrum of penetrants; complex barrier structures; and flavor scalping. It presents fundamental principles along with complementing discussions of applications of these principles.
