ABSTRACT
Advances in Kinetics and Mechanism of Chemical Reactions describes the chemical physics and/or chemistry of 10 novel material or chemical systems. These 10 novel material or chemical systems are examined in the context of issues of structure amd bonding, and/or reactivity, and/or transport properties, and/or polymer properties, and/ or biological characteristics. This eclectic survey thus encompasses a special focus on the associated kinetics, reaction mechanisms and/or other chemical physics properties, of these 10 broadly chosen material or chemical systems. Thus, the most contemporary chemical physics methods and principles are applied to the characterization of the properties of these 10 novel material or chemical systems. The coverage of these novel systems is thus broad, ranging from the study of biopolymers to the analysis of antioxidant and medicinal chemical activity, on the one hand, to the determination of the chemical kinetics of novel chemical systems, and the characterization of elastic properties of novel nanometer scale material systems, on the other hand.
