The second edition of Macromolecular Chemistry broadens into two areas: biomacromolecules, Volume 1 and polymers, Volume 2. Polymers covers polymer history, polymerization reactions, polymer morphology, technology, characterization and testing, processing, and recycling. The book discusses the building blocks of synthetic polymers, comparison of macromolecules and polymers, polymer classification, and illustration of polymer chemical structures. Polymerization reactions such as step-growth polymerization and chain-growth polymerization are extensively discussed. It then presents tacticity, molecular interactions and polymer crystals. Biodegradable polymers, biomedical polymers, conducting polymers, electroluminescent polymers, water-soluble polymers, additives, adhesives, fibres, and coatings are described. The next section explores inorganic polymers such as polysilanes, polysiloxanes, and polyphosphazenes. The book then delves into polymer characterization and testing, including Infrared Spectroscopy, Raman Spectroscopy, NMR, X-ray Spectroscopy, and Electron Microscopy, and the last section addresses selected polymer processing techniques such as moulding, casting, extrusion, coatings, and foaming.

Dr. Mohamed Elzagheid is an Associate Professor of Organic Chemistry and was previously the Deputy of Education and Training Affairs at Jubail Industrial College.
Prior to his current job at JIC, Dr. Elzagheid worked as the R & D Director at LPS Inc. in Canada. Dr. Elzagheid also has experience working as a post-doctoral fellow, visiting scientist, and research associate at McGill University in Canada, the lab director at SynPrep Inc. in Canada, and a senior research chemist at Perkin Elmer in Finland.
Dr. Elzagheid's work at Turku University in Finland, McGill University in Canada, and JIC in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has enabled him to solidify his reputation in the organic chemistry field, and nucleoside and oligonucleotide chemistry in particular; such is evident in Dr. Elzagheid's research papers and publications (50+ peer-reviewed articles and 5 textbooks).
