Summary:

This book provides a necessary bridge between the values of engineering end-use parameters of polyethylene resins and their scientific molecular and structural characteristics. The main goal is to translate such common parameters, such as the melt index of a resin or the dart impact strength of a film sample, into the universal language of the polymer science. After this translation is completed, many facets of the resin properties became transparent and easily explainable
