THE AUTHOR
Allan F. M. Barton received M.Sc. (First Class Honours) and Ph.D. degrees in chem
istry from the University of Auckland, New Zealand. He then worked as a postdoctoral
fellow in the electrochemistry group of Southampton University in England from 1965 to
1968 before returning to New Zealand to an academic staff position at Victoria University
of Wellington. In 1974 he was appointed a foundation staff member of the new Murdoch
University in Perth, Western Australia, where he is now Associate Professor in Chemistry.
He is a Fellow of both the New Zealand Institute of Chemistry and the Royal Australian
Chemical Institute, and in 1975 he received the New Zealand Association of Scientists
Research Medal.
Professor Barton’s scientific contributions have been made as the result of the application
of a variety of physical and chemical techniques to pure and applied problems associated
with the properties of liquids and solutions, rates of chemical processes and resource uti
lization. He has been involved with the Solubility Data Project of the International Union
of Pure and Applied Chemistry since 1975, and was foundation Chairman of the Liquid-
liquid Subcommittee of the Commission on Solubility Data. His publications include the
books The Dynamic Liquid State (1974), Resource Recovery and Recycling (1979), and
Handbook of Solubility Parameters and Other Cohesion Parameters (1983), as well as
reviews and research papers on high pressure molten salt electrochemistry, liquid transport
properties, kinetics of halate-halide reactions in aqueous solution, solid dissolution rates,
and phase transitions.
In addition to liquid state properties, his present interests include the production of
chemicals from biomass, the recovery of resources from wastes, and technology transfer
from research to industry.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I am deeply indebted to
• the many scientists and techologists throughout the world who responded generously
to my requests for reprints and details of their work
• the Inter-Library Loans staff and Physical Sciences staff of Murdoch University Library
• Connie Carlsen, for her assistance with the bibliography compilation
• the Western Australian Product Innovation Centre Pty. Ltd., where I was based during
the second half of 1987 while on study leave from Murdoch University
• the members of my family, for their tolerance and support.
This volume includes a comprehensive compilation of cohesion parameters for polymers
as well as polymer-liquid interaction parameters.
The complementary cohesion parameter values for liquids and detailed information on
their applications appear in the companion volume CRC Handbook of Solubility Parameters
and Other Cohesion Parameters, first published in 1983 and updated in the forthcoming
Second Edition.
