Preface
The latest edition of Polymers: A Property Database is an improved version of an indispensable polymer reference
work. The database is a comprehensive and in-depth collection of properties for a very wide range of polymers,
both synthetic and natural; and where polymers exist with subtle variations in structure, these are also covered in
some detail. Processing grades are also described along with typical applications for each major polymer.
Each polymer has a general properties section, where very useful information such as chemical structure,
synonyms, CAS registration numbers, and monomers used in the polymerisation is given. The mechanical
properties are particularly well presented and all source material is meticulously referenced.
The database is well indexed (even more comprehensively in the online version) and extremely easy to use
making this a very desirable addition to any researcher’s library. Polymers are indexed by common name
allowing ease of access even to those with only a basic knowledge of polymers; industrial/commercial names are
also used where these exist. This is particularly useful for those working in industry or in multidisciplinary fields
where polymers are used.

Introduction
Those of us who work with polymers and polymeric materials rely heavily on data regarding solution and bulk
properties, and manufacturing procedures. These parameters usually can be found spread over different
handbooks, encyclopedias, and the Internet. However, Polymers: A Property Database is one-stop shopping,
whereby this information is now available from a single source. Entries range from a few lines for research
polymers to encyclopedic submissions for more common polymers. (An online version of the Database for
simplified data retrieval and entry updates is now available from Taylor & Francis Group.)
To produce this comprehensive Database, which conveniently can be used as a desk reference book, a double-
column format was used with small, but easy to read font with spaced-out tables. Because main-chain or common
polymer names are used as headers, arranged alphabetically in dictionary style, the Database is practical to use.
(IUPAC approved nomenclature is given under a separate heading). To quickly locate a polymer, a comprehensive
polymer name index is available.
The Database contains a listing of polymer properties that are, for the most part, associated with polymer
manufacturing, processing, and applications. As such, the Database contains other useful information in addition
to polymer properties, not found in other source books; an example of this is given for nylon 6,6, a well-studied
commercial polymer:

The Database also lists many types of polysaccharides, modified cellulosics, and other important biopolymers.
Different types of polymers and polymeric structures are presented, such as inorganic polymers, blends, block
copolymers, graft polymers, ionomers, elastomers, fibers, hydrogels, interpenetrating networks, structural foams,
polymer composites, polysiloxanes, resins, and natural rubbers.
For this second edition, an introductory chapter has been added that reviews polymer complexity as it relates
to polymer properties. Furthermore, tabulated lists of polymer properties are given to serve as a guide in selecting
appropriate test procedures.

Polymer property data are now available on the Internet in a variety of tabular forms. The advantages and
convenience of having a desk reference book of the magnitude of Database cannot be overstated. No other
reference handbooks contain the caveats, descriptions, and explanations that are found in Polymers: A Property
Database as exemplified in the above table.

A. IMPORTANCE OF POLYMER PROPERTIES


Because of their high molecular mass, polymers, as compared to small molecules, have unique properties that are
often difficult to predict. As such, some background knowledge of the physical chemistry of polymers is desirable
for dealing with polymers and polymeric materials.
Polymer properties, like solubility behavior, are used as a guide on a laboratory scale when analyzing or
characterizing polymers or when determining structure-property relationships. On an industrial scale, properties
such as melt viscosity or heat capacity are important for establishing polymerization and processing conditions.
A listing of properties is required for selecting polymers to meet specific applications.
Polymers are ubiquitous as they are used in all applications, from consumer products to high-temperature
industrial use to medical devices, under a wide-range of conditions. In modern polymer science and engineering,
more complex structures, such as multilayer films, nanomaterials, electro-optical, and electronic devices, are
being developed that require more specialized and complex testing for end-use performance evaluation.
Furthermore, from knowledge of structure-property relations of polymers and polymeric materials, one can
begin to design and tailor-make polymers and complex polymeric structures to meet specific end-use performance
requirements.
It is sometimes difficult to accurately predict end-use performance characteristics of the final product using
tabulated data of individual components. As a result, accurate measurements are those made on the final product
itself, rather than using model polymers or components. In these cases, empirically derived measurements using the
actual product, verified with authentic samples, may be the best option. It should be noted that most empirically
derived data are trade secrets, and, as such, not available. Nevertheless, compilations of properties are still valuable.

B. POLYMER COMPLEXITY
Because of polymer complexity, property variability must be taken into consideration. In this section, we will
discuss possible sources of polymer inconsistency and offer suggestions to recognize and reduce these errors.
Chemical or compositional heterogeneity refers to the chemical or structural difference among chains of the
same polymer. Thus, a measured property of a chemically heterogeneous sample will be an averaged value
dependent upon sample source. For chemically homogeneous samples, property variability will not be a concern.
In a similar fashion, polymers that are polydisperse in molecular weight have averaged property values, while
monodisperse samples will give accurate data. Obviously, samples that are both chemically homogeneous and
monodisperse will give the most accurate and precise values.
Compared to synthetic polymers, almost all nucleic acids and mammalian proteins are compositionally
(chemically) homogeneous and monodisperse. If not, there would be no life; biopolymers carry highly specific and
selective information. Mammalian polysaccharides, for the most part, are also compositionally homogeneous, but
are polydisperse in molecular weight; whereas plant polysaccharides are polydisperse. Chemically modified
cellulose (cellulosics) are typically both compositionally heterogeneous and polydisperse in molecular weight.
Starches (a-amylose and amylopectin), another major class of polysaccharides, are highly polydisperse in
molecular weight, but quite compositionally homogeneous. In addition, amylopectin and many other
polysaccharides are highly branched, which may further complicate listed property values.
Synthetic polymers can be quite complex and, as such, tabulated and measured property data must be interpreted
with care. Homogeneous synthetic polymers are those produced from condensation polymerization reactions, in
which all polymer chains are chemically indistinguishable from another. Even though these types of polymers show a
finite polydispersity of two, accuracy and precision will not be compromised because all samples (and reference
standards) will have the same degree of polydispersity. Lastly, synthetic polymers produced by addition
polymerization (i.e., ionic, complex coordination catalytic or free-radical copolymerization) will have the greatest
amount of compositional heterogeneity and, with the exception of anionically polymerized samples, will also have a
large molecular weight polydispersity. For these polymers, tabulated data must be interpreted with caution, unless
users establish their own data sets with reference polymers obtained from the same polymerization conditions.
Sequence distribution or polymer microstructure is the next higher level of complexity in which the average
arrangement of monomers along a chain is considered. The polymerization mechanism and reactivity ratios of

xii
monomers dictate this parameter. Monomers can be randomly arranged along chains in the case of statistic or
random copolymers or, in the extreme form, as block copolymers. In any event, the microstructure of reference
polymers should be defined when properties are listed.
Next in line of complexity is macromolecular architecture, or polymer configuration, in which the topological
nature of the chain is of interest. Thus polymer branching can take on a wide range of configurations including
short- and long-chain branching, and comb, star, and dendritic structures with or without comonomer
segregation or blockiness. Because of the strong influence of polymer configuration on properties, this parameter
needs to be defined and care taken when comparing tabulated data to those of actual samples.
In summary, polymers may have up to two or more distributed characteristics depending on the number of
different monomers used in the polymerization, the type of polymerization mechanism, and whether or not the
sample was fractionated during isolation. As a rough estimate, polymer ‘‘complexity’’ increases exponentially
with the number of distributive properties, making it more difficult to measure accurate polymer properties.
Some polymers are modified after polymerization; however, this process can be somewhat difficult to control
because polymer chain segments can influence the chemistry of a neighboring groups. Chemical modifications are
done mainly on cellulosics and other polysaccharides to tailor-make specific property characteristics. Thus
tabulated property data given for cellulosics and polysaccharides represent average values of the entire sample
ensemble of polymer chains that differ in composition. To complicate matters further, insoluble gels, comprised of
three-dimensional networks, may form if chains are allowed to chemically or physically (via hydrogen bonding)
react with one another, either during or after polymerization.
Post-polymerization processes are also accomplished via vulcanization, irradiation, or through the addition of
a low molecular weight cross-linking agent. The resulting polymer (i.e., rubber, elastomer, resin, or gel) in
essence, is one super or giant molecule approaching infinite molecular weight. These viscoelastic materials have
wonderful consumer, industrial, and aerospace end-use applications when properly formulated.
The next level of polymer complexity is polymer blends and multicomponent systems. To adjust the glass-
transition temperature, plasticizers are added, often times at high concentrations. To increase polymer strength,
reinforced polymeric materials are used that consist of added inorganic material, the most common being carbon
black or glass fibers. Laminated structures are also produced for increased material strength.
High-value added, specialty products with controlled molecular weight, branching, or architecture are being
developed for high-technology industries, most notably electronic and optical devices, printing inks, and coatings
in the aerospace industry. Because of their specialized uses, most of these polymeric materials are not listed in this
compilation.

C. REGULATORY AGENCIES
Most industries issue testing protocols and polymer property specifications to the trade. To ensure uniformity,
national regulatory agencies have formed to deal with standardized methods and testing approaches. In the
United States, ASTM is the most prominent independent agency supported by industry with about 100 test
methods in place specifically for polymers and polymeric materials. API specializes in the development of
procedures for petroleum products, some of which are polymeric. In Britain, BSI is the key agency for testing,
while in Europe, DIN procedures are followed. Many of these agencies are overseen by ISO, a federation of
national regulatory bodies. (See Table 1 for complete names and acronyms.)
Governmental departments of commerce, defense, and military are also involved in issuing protocols and
specifications. For example, the FDA is responsible for establishing acceptable limits of extractable components
from polymeric materials in contact with food and drugs.

D. REFERENCE POLYMERS AND SPECIALTY MATERIALS
Sources of reference polymer standards that can be used for instrument calibration and validating methods are
listed in Table 2. In the United States NIST is responsible for distributing a number of well-characterized
polymer standards.
These standards have well-defined chemical composition and molecular weight, and are also suitable for
formulating materials for R&D. All reference standards and polymeric material should come with certificates of
analysis. (Because water content in polymers, especially hydrophilic ones and polysaccharides, may affect
properties, it is advisable to vacuum dry and properly store them to prevent moisture buildup and degradation.)

E. POLYMER PROPERTIES
In this section we discuss and list polymer properties that are included in data tables of this book. Some properties
reviewed in this section are not listed in this text, but they are included for completeness. Specific properties for
certain classes of polymers are not given, especially those used for optical, electronic and magnetic devices.
Much of this section and the book’s content is based on van Krevelen’s (1976) property schemes, with
modification. His book should be consulted for more detailed discussions. Other books of interest are listed at
the end of this chapter.
Basic information that characterizes polymers is listed in Table 3. These properties can be estimated from the
expected outcome of the polymerization, measured, or calculated from group contributions (see van Krevelen,

1976). Methods for measuring these properties can be found in the reference list (for example, see Barth and
Mays 1991; Brady 2003; Wu 1995). Some of the more important properties will be considered here.
The most useful average molecular weights are the number- (Mn), weight- (Mw), and z-averages (Mz). These
averages are easily determined from the molecular weight distribution obtained using size exclusion
chromatography (Mori and Barth 2001). Oftentimes just the viscosity-average molecular weight (Mv) is
available, which can be conveniently determined from the measured intrinsic viscosity of the polymer in a given
solvent at a specified temperature using tabulated MarkHouwink coefficients. Alternatively, Mw can be
determined from light scattering and Mn from osmometry.
Branching, molecular topology, and comonomer sequence distribution along the chain are more difficult to
estimate; these properties are best estimated by the chemistry of the polymerization procedure, with support from
NMR measurements. Polymer toxicity and stability must be known or at least estimated from functional group
and comonomer chemistry. It should be realized that polymer toxicity, to a first approximation, is lower than the
corresponding comonomer toxicity; because of the low polymer diffusion coefficient, macromolecules cannot
readily pass through biomembranes, thus have limited bioavailability.
The effect of molecular weight of a polymer in solution on its colligative properties, summarized in Table 4, is
a well-established phenomenon. These properties are dependent on the number of macromolecules in solution,
which independent on molecular weight and chemical composition. In fact, the number-average molecular weight
of a polymer can be determined by measuring one of its colligative properties.

Boiling point elevation MW dependent

Table 5 lists volumetric properties of polymers in the liquid or solid state as a function of temperature; these
properties are related to the compactness of chains and the interaction of comonomers within and among
neighboring chains. These properties are more dependent on chemical composition, than molecular weight.
Volumetric properties also depend on factors influenced by comonomer sequence distribution, such as tacticity,
branching, and polymer crystallinity.

Table 5. Volumetric properties

Property measured Remarks

Specific volume (reciprocal of specific density) Depends on polymer state


Molar volume (reciprocal of molar density) Depends on polymer state
Specific thermal expansivity Depends on polymer state

Molar melt expansivity Applicable to crystalline polymers

Table 6 lists thermodynamic and calorimetric attributes of a polymer, while Table 7 deals with polymer
solubility and cohesive energy. Except for molar entropy, all these properties depend mainly of chemical
composition, rather than molecular weight. Furthermore, polymer crystallinity, in addition to the chemical
nature of a polymer, plays a major role in dictating solubility behavior. In order to effect solubility in the case of
crystalline or semicrystalline polymers, the solution must be heated near or above its melting point to break up
crystalline regions.
Light scattering and inherent viscosity measurements made at infinite dilution are used to determine polymer
size parameters, conformation, second virial coefficient, weight-average molecular weight, and long-chain
branching parameters (Table 8). These are fundamental parameters that allow us to probe structural features of
polymer molecules. These properties are dependent on molecular mass and shape, rather than polymer
composition.
