Usage of polymeric materials in the field of chemistry and physics is enormous and it opens to a wide area for research. The manipulation of chemical components and different polymer materials influences new products and their revenues. Polymer Engineering designs, analyses and modifies polymer material. Polymer engineering deals with polymerization, its structure, characterization, petrochemical, their properties, and processing of polymers, and its applications. The basic division of polymers are thermoplastics, elastomers. Thermoplastics have relatively low tensile moduli, lower densities. Common thermoplastics are nylon, polycarbonate, PET, acetal resin which is all ideal for consumer and medical products. Elastomers show low moduli with a reversible extension on vibrational absorption and damping which include natural rubber, polybutadiene, styrene-butadiene, nitrile rubber. Thermosets include phenolic resins, polyesters and epoxy resins which are widely used in composites when reinforced with stiff fibers such as fiberglass and aramids. They have physical properties similar to steel. They are low density, light weighted material, and less fatigue, so ideal for safety-critical parts which undergoes much stress.
