However, recent progress in both radiation and polymer researches indicates a dramatic change in the circumstance of this research field, and the trend has been rapidly expanding, especially in the last decade. Polymers will be used not only as structural materials but also as electronic, optical, medical, and pharmaceutical materials, and radiation will be a powerful candidate to manipulate the structure and property of polymers. In this section, the...

Several important terms and concepts must be understood in order to discuss fully the synthesis, characterisation, structure and properties of polymers. However, some are of such fundamental importance that they must be defined at the outset.

This review surveyed our and other worker s recent research on the exploitation of group 5 and 6 transition metal (Nb, Ta, Mo, W) catalysts, the synthesis of new, high-molecular-weight, substituted polyacetylenes, and the elucidation of the structure and properties of polymers. 

Computer simulations have become a powerful tool for understanding the structure and properties of polymers. The simulation results not only lead to a greater understanding of experimental data, but they also serve as a way to examine and extend analytic theories. In this chapter, we have tried to give first an introduction of the computational techniques currently available and, second, examples of applications from the current literature. Nonatomistic computational methods are also useful in the study of polymers, especially when one wishes to determine qualitative differences within a series of homologous compounds. 

The high effectiveness of the PL method for solving various problems of polymer chemistry and physics is mostly due to the features that distinguish this method from other methods applied to the investigation of the structure and properties of polymers in multicomponent polymer systems in solution. 

TDS, as one of the DDS, consists of the following components adhesive materials, rate-controlling membrane, backing materials, reservoir vehicle, and release liner. All components, except for the reservoir vehicle, are made of polymers. Here, TDS may be said to be composed of sophisticated polymer products. Naturally, the basic properties of TDS (i.e., drug release rate and duration, drug stability, and so on) are greatly dependent on the component materials. Without the suitable selection of all polymer components, no pharmaceutical effectiveness of TDS will be achieved. Therefore, it is important for the research and development of TDS to estimate the structure and properties of polymers, and to combine the most appropriate polymer materials. In this article, the characteristics of polymer materials for TDS formulation are discussed, which are intended to be a valuable aid for the development of TDS.
