Chemistry of wood and synthetic polymers. Textbook

The UMO was allowed by education in the field of forest business as a textbook for university students studying in direction 240400 - "chemical technology of organic substances and fuel" in the specialty 240406 - "technology for chemical processing of wood".
In the textbook in a fairly compact and clear form, the material extensive in the subject is presented at the modern level. Particular attention is paid to the structure of macromolecules and the physical structure of polymers as an basis for understanding the structure and properties of synthetic polymers and high molecular weight components of wood. The processes of polymer synthesis, including the biosynthesis of natural polymers are considered. The properties of synthetic polymers used in the receipt of a variety of materials and products based on wood and its processing products are described in detail. The textbook contains the necessary information on the anatomy of wood and the structure of the cell wall. A significant place is given to the presentation of the theoretical foundations of the processes of chemical processing of wood and its components.
The textbook is intended for students of forestry specialties "Technology of chemical processing of wood" and "Woodworking Technology" and "Environmental Protection and the rational use of natural resources", including the preparation of bachelors and masters, and will also be useful for graduate students, engineers , scientific and technical workers specializing in these fields
