Abstract

Reactive and functional polymers are manufactured essentially from the chemical or physical modification of their precursors or by the addition of active fillers. These polymers have proven important for the development of advanced materials for different applications, and they are booming and will be a fundamental part in the future life for agricultural, energy efficiency, environmental remediation, medical devices, among others. With this chapter, we open the main topics that will be analyzed in this book.
