1978 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Polymer
  • Thermodynamics
  • Organic chemistry

His primary scientific interests are in Crystallinity, Polymer chemistry, Copolymer, Crystallization and Thermodynamics. His Crystallinity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ultimate tensile strength, Molecule, Polyethylene and Polymer. His work on Linear low-density polyethylene as part of general Polymer research is frequently linked to Range and Extrapolation, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Leo Mandelkern studied Polymer chemistry and Phase that intersect with Analytical chemistry and Small-angle neutron scattering. His Copolymer research incorporates themes from Crystal structure and Ethylene. Crystallization is a subfield of Chemical engineering that Leo Mandelkern explores.

His most cited work include:

  • Crystallization of polymers (1180 citations)
  • Physical Properties of Polymers (309 citations)
  • Influence of structural and morphological factors on the mechanical properties of the polyethylenes (261 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Crystallization, Polymer, Polymer chemistry, Polyethylene and Crystallinity. Leo Mandelkern has researched Crystallization in several fields, including Crystallography, Lamellar structure, Crystallite, Nucleation and Linear low-density polyethylene. The Polymer study combines topics in areas such as Chemical physics, Molecule, Polymer science and Thermodynamics.

The various areas that he examines in his Polymer chemistry study include Copolymer, Tacticity, Phase, Differential scanning calorimetry and Chemical engineering. Within one scientific family, Leo Mandelkern focuses on topics pertaining to Analytical chemistry under Polyethylene, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Isothermal process. His research on Crystallinity also deals with topics like

  • Ultimate tensile strength which is related to area like Deformation,
  • Relaxation most often made with reference to Carbon-13 NMR.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Crystallization (38.21%)
  • Polymer (31.13%)
  • Polymer chemistry (31.13%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1997-2007)?

  • Polymer (31.13%)
  • Crystallization (38.21%)
  • Polymer chemistry (31.13%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Leo Mandelkern mainly focuses on Polymer, Crystallization, Polymer chemistry, Crystallography and Crystallinity. His studies in Polymer integrate themes in fields like Polymer science, Morphology, Butyl rubber and Thermodynamics. Leo Mandelkern combines subjects such as Linear low-density polyethylene, Molecule and Nucleation with his study of Crystallization.

His work deals with themes such as Copolymer, Differential scanning calorimetry, Phase and Crystallite, which intersect with Polymer chemistry. The study incorporates disciplines such as Chemical engineering and Ethylene in addition to Copolymer. His Crystallinity research includes elements of Lamellar structure and Isothermal process.

Between 1997 and 2007, his most popular works were:

  • Crystallization of polymers (1180 citations)
  • Structural and Kinetic Factors Governing the Formation of the γ Polymorph of Isotactic Polypropylene (180 citations)
  • Formation of the α and γ polymorphs in random metallocene-propylene copolymers. Effect of concentration and type of comonomer (158 citations)
