Thermoreversible Networks : Viscoelastic Properties and Structure of Gels (9783662147955)

This review shows that the measurement of viscoelastic properties is a powerful tool in the study of thermoreversible gels. Although many conclusions may be drawn about network development and its structure, it is also shown that the use of additional techniques (e.g. small angle S-ray and neutron scattering techniques and optical rotation) and the combination with thermodynamics and network models, widens the insight in the crosslinking process and the gel structure temendously. A general Introduction is followed by eight Chapters concerning synthetic polymers (PVC, PVAL, PMMA, PS, PAN, PE, ABA blockcopolymers and LCP's) and four Chapters concerning biopolymers (gelatin, agarose, carrageenans and gellan gum).

Von Berlin nach Jerusalem (9783633241767)

Gershorn Scholem (1897-1982) hat kurz vor seinem Tod seine Jugenderinnerungen Von Berlin nach Jerusalem in einer stark erweiterten hebräischen Fassung vorgelegt. Dabei hat er das Panorama seiner Jugend neu entfaltet und die Perspektive gewechselt: Er übernahm vieles aus dem deutschen Original ins Hebräische, fast ebensoviel aber ergänzte, präzisierte und vertiefte er und fügte ganze Passagen neu hinzu. Während Von Berlin nach Jerusalem vor allem das vielfältige und spannungsreiche jüdische Milieu um den ersten Weltkrieg in Deutschland schildert, tritt nun fünf Jahre später in Mi-Berlin, I-Irushalayim, entschiedener als zuvor, der Blick nach vorn ins Zentrum: der Entwurf eines neuen kulturellen, gesellschaftlichen und sozialen Lebens im Land Israel. Scholem schildert seine Begegnungen, Gespräche und Kontroversen mit Schlüsselgestalten der Zeit, mit Martin Buber, Franz Rosenzweig, mit Samuel Agnon, aber auch mit Menschen, die fast nur noch durch ihn in Erinnerung sind. Er führt seine Au...
