Introduces the fundamentals of rheology and rheometry as the basis for modelling and computer-aided design in plastics processing. The logically structured content enables the reader to intelligently use the tools of computer-aided design and modelling of plastics processing, with correct interpretation of the results.

Understanding of polymer interactions is important for effective processing of plastics and their blends, mixing with nanoparticles, and understanding of their mechanical and physical properties. This book describes a physics of interactions in polymers that challenges existing theories, and explains the concept of entanglement in a different way.

Engineering of polymers is not an easy exercise: with evolving technology, it often involves complex concepts and processes. This book is intended to provide the theoretical essentials: understanding of processes, a basis for the use of design software, and much more.
