Biography
Rui Yang, Ph.D., is an associate professor at Tsinghua University, Beijing, China.
"Analytical methods for polymer characterization by Rui Yang is a useful contribution for students or nonprofessionals interested in introduction to some selected techniques for polymer characterization. It addresses several key techniques, giving an introduction to theory, basic setup and data treatment for a first impression of their principles and application areas...The author offers an exceptional insight into the pyrolysis GC-MS as a method for analysis of macromolecular systems. Furthermore, the chapter devoted to FTIR is very detailed and helpful also for professionals."
