In this volume, for each polymer, the main processes for converting petrochemical monomers to polymer products are described and compared, and information is provided about the technical and economic characteristics, the main uses in the leading consumer countries, and installed capacities of the producing countries. For each product examined, the main problems raised by polymerization processes are identified.
