T

he decade w h i c h has elapsed since the first edition of "Literature Resources of the Chemical Process Industries" has seen a spectacular growth i n poly­ mer science and technology. Therefore, updating the seven papers w h i c h ap­ peared i n the 1954 book to form one short chapter seems a formidable under­ taking. T h e specialist i n the polymer field draws his information from sources pertaining to many scientific disciplines, and many scientific journals include articles on different phases of polymer chemistry, physics, and technology. C o n ­ sequently, this article is meant as an introduction for the newcomer i n the field, and for the searcher w i t h occasional questions on the subject. Books The publishing activity i n the polymer field includes several sets of mono­ graphs. Interscience Publishers initiated their " H i g h Polymers" series w i t h the "Collected Papers of Wallace H u m e Carothers on H i g h Polymeric Sub­ stances" i n 1940 and has issued 17 volumes since that time, a l l by distinguished scientists. A m o n g them are "Physical Chemistry of H i g h Polymeric Systems" by H . F . M a r k and Α. V . Tobolsky, "Mechanical Behavior of H i g h Polymers" by T . Alfrey, "Polymer Processes" edited by C . E . Schildknecht, and " A n a ­ lytical Chemistry of Polymers" i n three parts, edited by Gordon M . Kline.

subjects of basic polymer science. "Polymerization of Aldehydes and Oxides" by F u r a k a w a and Saegusa, " L i n e a r and Stereoregular A d d i t i o n Polymers" by Gaylord and M a r k , "Polymer Single Crystals" by P. H . G e i l , and "Newer Methods i n Polymer Characterization" by Bacon K e are among the volumes published. M o r e industrial i n approach is the Reinhold "Plastics Applications Series." These small volumes introduce the reader to the technology of specialized areas such as " A c r y l i c Resins" by M . B . H o r n , "Polyester Resins" by J . R. Lawrence, and "Polycarbonates" by W . F . Christopher and D . W . Fox. The "Plastics Engineering Series" of the same publisher is sponsored by the Society of Plastics Engineers ( S P E ) , and these volumes include "Processing of Thermoplastic Materials" by E . C . Bernhardt and "Engineering Design for Plastics" by E r i c Baer. In addition, there are many excellent monographs, all of w h i c h cannot be individually mentioned. The books of Mark and Tobolsky, F l o r y , and Tobolsky, are classics i n the field of basic polymer science, while Billmeyer fulfills the need for a basic textbook. Polymer preparation is discussed by D ' A l e l i o i n " A Laboratory M a n u a l of Plastics and Synthetic Resins" and by Sorenson i n "Preparative Methods of Polymer Chemistry." The 4th edition of H o u b e n - W e y l , "Methoden der Organischen C h e m i e " dedicates the two parts of V o l . 14 to a comprehensive review of laboratory as w e l l as industrial methods of polymer synthesis. A 100 page bibliography at the end of part 2 is worth mentioning. " M a c r o molecular Synthesis" is a periodic publication of preparative methods similar to "Organic Synthesis" and "Inorganic Synthesis." Individual polymers are covered by monographs such as "Polythene" edited by Renfrew, " E p o x y Resins" by L e e and Neville, and " V i n y l and Related Polymers" by Schildknecht. "Kunststoffe-Handbuch," a comprehensive treatise edited by R. Vieweg, is projected by C a r l Hanser Verlag, M u n i c h , to have 11 volumes and index. The physical chemistry of polymers is discussed by Bueche and Tanford, rheology by E i r i c h , and polymer processing is covered by Fisher and M c Kelvey. Dictionaries and encyclopedias are convenient primers for many search questions. Both editions of the K i r k - O t h m e r "Encyclopedia of Chemical T e c h nology" have extensive treatments, w i t h bibliographies, on plastics subjects, as has "Ullmanns Enzyklopaedie der Technischen Chemie." However, polymer science has already deserved an encyclopedic treatise of its own, " E n c y c l o pedia of Polymer Science and Technology." This set is edited by M a r k , Gaylord, and Bikales and w i l l have approximately 12 volumes. It is similar i n both quality and format to Kirk-Othmer. In a hurry for a word or definition? Dickinson's "Plastics Dictionary," or " M o d e r n Plastics Encyclopedia" may be helpful. Annemarie Wittfoht has authored several bilingual plastic dictionaries, and her "Plastics L e x i c o n " lists 1200 words i n the field of plastics processing and machinery i n German, E n g lish, F r e n c h , Italian, and D u t c h .

Bibliographies and periodic reviews are secondary sources w h i c h can be most helpful i n approaching new subject matter. I n addition to serving as an introduction to the field, they are written, generally, by outstanding workers whose papers may be followed i n the author indexes of Chemical Abstracts; a different and, at times, surprisingly fertile approach to literature searching. There are few bibliographies specifically dealing w i t h polymer science. " G u i d e to the Literature and Patents concerning P V C Technology" was updated i n 1963 and now includes polymers and copolymers containing at least 7 5 % v i n y l chloride. " T h e Bibliography of Rubber Literature" periodically p u b lished by the D i v i s i o n of Rubber Chemistry of the American C h e m i c a l Society, covers patents and journal literature and includes rubberlike plastics. The sections on elastomers, synthetic resins, and plastics of " T h e Bibliography of C h e m i c a l Reviews" can be consulted for the years 1958 through 1962. Kharasch's, "Index to Reviews, Symposia Volumes and Monographs i n Organic Chemistry" has been updated to 1964 and covers journals, symposia, and nonperiodical publications. W h e n bibliographies are not available, some hunting i n periodic reviews w i l l lead to interesting information. "Fortschritte der Hochpolymeren F o r schung" contains papers i n English, French, and German on the physics and chemistry of high polymers. Papers and discussions at the British Plastics Convention have been published i n book form as "Plastics Progress" for some years but are now included i n the journal, British Plastics. Other books containing review articles on different aspects of polymer science are " M o d e r n Materials—Advances i n Development and Applications," "Advances i n Petroleum Chemistry," " A n n u a l Review of Physical Chemistry," "Advances i n Catalysis and Related Subjects," "Review of Textile Progress" and "Reports on the Progress of A p p l i e d Chemistry." Abstracting

and Indexing

Services

For any extensive retrospective search Chemical Abstracts is the classic tool that assures best results, thanks to thorough coverage and careful crossindexing. Applied Science and Technology Index can be recommended for locating current information i n a limited number of trade journals. Engineering Index covers periodicals i n the applications and processing fields, and is now publishing a separate plastics section, i n cooperation with the Society of Plastics Engineers. T w o new services of C A S aim at current awareness of all aspects of the plastics field: POST-P and POST-J give reference to papers and patents providing indicative abstracts, keyword-, formula-, author-, and patent indexes and magnetic tape for computer searching. Phstics Industry Notes is geared to inform business and production management on new developments i n the industry. Specialized abstracting services dealing w i t h plastics include ResinsRubbers-Plastics, suspended by Inter science i n 1962 but continued by Infor-

mation for Industry, Inc. since 1963. These abstracts go into considerable detail and include graphs and tables. They are published i n loose-leaf form and may be assembled i n chapters by subject. Plastics Abstracts and RAPRA Abstracts, formerly British Plastics Federation Abstracts, cover journal and patent literature w i t h short indicative abstracts. Rheology Abstracts and Journal of the Textile Institute, Abstracts cover closely related fields. In the highly competitive plastics industry awareness of patent developments is of utmost importance. In addition to the abstracting sources mentioned above, several services deal exclusively w i t h patents. The Uniterm Index to U.S. Chemical Patents may be searched either manually or by computer. The latter service is available on either a single question basis from the publishers, or on a subscription to tape basis for in-house use. As is the case with most Uniterm Systems, extreme care should be exercised i n the selection of keywords for searching. Derwent's PLASDOC patent documentation system has been i n operation since early 1966. PLASDOC provides for its subscribers current awareness and retrieval tools for patents on plastics, raw materials, processing, and applications by a systematic classification system, punched cards, magnetic tape, and computer-produced indexes as w e l l as abstracts and complete specifications on microfilm. Specifications,

Standards, and

Testing

Careful standardization of procedures is of paramount importance i n testing a highly complex material, as is even the simplest polymer. The American Society for Testing and Materials ( A S T M ) has made an invaluable contribution to industrial technology by working out and revising test methods, and adapting them to new materials and new applications. The "1968 Book of A S T M Standards" supersedes all previous editions, and its index refers to definitive and tentative standards in their latest form. The society's activity is not limited to the issuance of testing procedures. International Symposium on Plastics Testing and Standardization, 1958, Symposium on Tension Testing of Non-Metallic Materials, 1956, Symposium on Adhesion and Adhesives, 1959, Symposium on Reinforced Plastics, 1961, and Symposium on Thermal Ablation, 1959 are but samples of the many symposia sponsored by committees of A S T M . Anyone interested i n the field w i l l find valuable information by scanning the list of A S T M publications. Several agencies of the U . S . Government such as the Department of the A r m y , Department of the N a v y , Federal Supply Service, e t c , have issued their own specifications and standards, and the General Services Administration issues the Index of Federal Specifications and Standards. The Plastics T e c h nical Evaluation Center ( P L A S T E C ) has compiled federal specifications related to plastic materials of potential defense interest. The American Standards Association ( A S A ) serves as a national clearing house and correlating agency for standards emanating from specialized sources such as A S T M , the Society of Plastics Engineers and the Society of Plastics

Industry. Similar standardizing bodies exist i n most industrialized countries and are correlated by the International Organization for Standardization i n Geneva. L e t us now turn to the results of testing—physical, chemical, mechanical, and electrical data on plastic materials. In spite of the many existing com­ pilations, searching for a particular property of a particular polymer can still be a frustrating enterprise. It must be remembered that such data do not refer to chemical species but to industrial products. Their properties depend on their history and additives, as well as details of the testing procedure, and generally, not all of these items are specified. T h e trade literature, manufacturer's catalogs and guides, such as " M o d e r n Plastics Encyclopedia," "British Plastics Yearbook," "Materials Selector Issue," "SPI Plastics Engineering Handbook," and "Technical D a t a on Plastics," w i l l acquaint the searcher w i t h property ranges of the commercially available products. A n impressive compilation of physical and chemical constants and parameters is "Polymer Handbook" edited by Brandrup and Immergut. The 6th edition of the Landolt-Bornstein tables includes a relatively short section on physical properties of rubbers and plastics. A w e l l documented compilation of data can be found i n "Ullmanns Enzyclopaedie der Technischen Chemie," w i t h reference to, and description of American, as w e l l as German, testing procedures. W e cannot leave this section without mentioning several efforts to review the physical data and testing literature widely scattered i n primary sources. They are: "Retrieval Guide to Thermophysical Properties Research Literature," "Handbook of Thermophysical Properties of Solid Materials" and, exclusively concerned w i t h plastics, A . Lever s " T h e Properties and Testing of Plastic Materials." Journals Comparing today's sources of primary information on polymer chemistry w i t h those given i n earlier bibliographies, one discovers a noticeable change. Journals of a more general character have been displaced by ever more spe­ cialized publications. The Journal of Polymer Science is now published i n three sections: A — G e n e r a l Papers, Β—Polymer Letters, and C — P o l y m e r S y m ­ posia. Journal of Macromolecular Science covers physics and chemistry of polymers and issues two yearly review numbers. Macromolecules, a bimonthly of the American Chemical Society, started publication i n January 1968. Other journals dealing exclusively w i t h basic polymer science are Die Makromolekulare Chemie, Polymer, Kobushi Kagaku and Polymer Science USSR w h i c h is a partial translation of Wysokomolekularnye Soedineniya. Articles related to the applied and industrial aspects of polymer chemistry and plastics technology are found i n the Journal of Applied Polymer Science, The Plastics Institute (Transactions and Journal), SPE Journal, and SPE Transactions. Kunststoffe and Faserforschung und Textiltechnik are published i n German; the former may be purchased with English translations included, and the latter contains English abstracts. Soviet Plastics is the English trans­ lation of Plasticheskie Massy.

LITERATURE

OF CHEMICAL TECHNOLOGY

There are several other periodicals i n w h i c h articles related to polymer science appear quite frequently. These include: Journal of the American Chemical Society, Journal of Organic Chemistry, Journal of Colloid Science, Journal of Applied Physics, Journal of Research of the National Bureau of Standards, the former ASTM Bulletin, now issued as Materials Research and Standards, Industrial and EngineeHng Chemistry, and its quarterly Product Research and Development issue, and Pure and Applied Chemistry. British Pfostics, Modern Plastics, Plastics ( L o n d o n ) , and the host of trade magazines w h i c h , for lack of space, we cite only i n the bibliography deal w i t h the technical and processing aspects of plastics. Chemical Reviews, the English Quarterly Reviews, and Russian Chemical Reviews, should be consulted routinely for polymers, as for any other field of chemistry. The appended bibliography contains many items that have not been cited i n this paper, but even the bibliography does not contain all of the valuable references available. It does, however, contain those references w h i c h can lead the individual to additional material i n his particular field of interest. BIBLIOGRAPHY
