This book deals with the micromechanical characterization of polymer materials. It emphasizes microhardness as a technique capable of detecting a variety of morphological and textural changes in polymers. The authors provide a comprehensive introduction to the microhardness of polymers, including descriptions of the various testing methods in materials science and engineering. They also discuss the micromechanical study of glassy polymers and the relevant aspects of microhardness of semicrystalline polymers. Numerous application examples of the microhardness technique for the characterization of polymeric materials help readers develop a solid understanding of the material. These real world examples include the influence of polymer processing, the use in weathering tests, the characterization of modified polymer surfaces, and others. This book will be of use to graduate level materials science students, as well as research workers in materials science, mechanical engineering and physics departments interested in the microindentation hardness of polymer materials.

Fakirov, S.: - Born in 1936, Prof. Fakirov was educated in Bulgaria where he obtained his first degree in Chemistry at the University of Sofia in 1959. In 1960 he was appointed Assistant Professor at the same University. In 1962 he moved to the Lomonosov State University, Moscow, obtaining his Ph.D. degree in Chemistry in 1966. In 1972 he was appointed Associate Professor at Sofia University. In1987 he was appointed full Professor of Polymer Chemistry at the same University. He has spent many years as Visiting Professor in various international institutions. Since l984 he has led a group on Structure and Properties of Polymers at the University of Sofia. He has been Vice President of Sofia University. He was gievn the Award of the Union of Bulgarian Scientists and the Honour Award "100 Years University of Sofia". He is member of the Editorial Board of Applied Composite Materials and Advances in Polymer Technology, and Associate Editor of the International Journal of Polymeric Materials. He is presently fellow of the Foundation for Science and Technology, Portugal, and has also been fellow of many other international institutions. He is author of more than 250 papers, has contributions in several books as editor and co-author, and holds 9 US patents.
