The UNESCO School and Conference on Macromolecules & Materials Science is held annually in Stellenbosch, South Africa. Leading scientists from various fields of macromolecular science are invited to give tutorials at the UNESCO School and informative plenaries at the conference. The exposure to new ideas and advanced concepts in macromolecular science is of great importance for South Africa students and senior staff alike coming from different universities and research institutions. The 5th UNESCO School & IUPAC Conference focused on new polymeric materials, polymer characterization, and recent developments in polyolefins. Abridged versions of a number of papers are compiled to create the present volume of Macromolecular Symposia.
