- Plastics, Rubber and Composites: Macromolecular Engineering provides an international forum for the publication of original, peer-reviewed research on the macromolecular engineering of polymeric and related materials and polymer matrix composites. Modern polymer processing is increasingly focused on macromolecular engineering: the manipulation of structure at the molecular scale to control properties and fitness for purpose of the final component. Intimately linked to this are the objectives of predicting properties in the context of an optimised design and of establishing robust processing routes and process control systems allowing the desired properties to be achieved reliably. The main areas of interest are: /// Processing of single and multiphase polymeric systems in quantified, controlled, or novel ways, across the length scales; novel processing technologies; rheology; process measurement, sensors, and control; formation of polymers by novel routes; recycling; choice and incorporation of additives /// Properties of these materials; tailoring of properties during processing; property-processing relationships; characterisation of products, across the length scales /// Modelling of processing and structure development (melt/solid/multiphase): numerical and analytical modelling; constitutive relationships; validation /// Measurement techniques for process control and materials characterisation /// Design methodologies, including knowledge based engineering design, and performance of end products The journal's coverage will reflect growing common ground between the processing of polymers and of related materials in the fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and biomaterials sectors.
