The series Advances in Polymer Science presents critical reviews of the present and future trends in polymer and biopolymer science. It covers all areas of research in polymer and biopolymer science i

As carbons are widely used in energy storage and conversion systems, there is a rapidly growing need for an updated book that describes their physical, chemical, and electrochemical properties. Edited

Carbon materials have, in recent years, been attracting attention as potential supports in heterogeneous catalysis. In 2006, the number of articles dealing with various types of catalysts supported on

A comprehensive and up-to-date text in the field of electron scattering and ionization, covering fundamentals, experimental background, quantum scattering theories and applications. Electron impact ionization of atoms and molecules in ground/metastable states is discussed comprehensively. The text covers electron scattering phenomena for diatomic and common molecules, polyatomic molecules and radicals including hydro-carbons, fluoro-carbons and other larger molecules together with relevant radical species in detail. Applications of electron impact ionization and excitation in gaseous or plasma and condensed matter is discussed in a separate chapter. Recent advances in the field of electron molecule scattering and ionization for polyatomic molecules is covered extensively.

This book covers the development of biotechnology based on carbon nanostructures, with a focus on nanotubes, addressing also fullerenes and amorphous carbons. The book is divided into 7 chapters,

This volume focuses on the new and exciting areas of carbons formed from the pyrolysis of polymers and ionic liquids as well as from the synthesis and self-assembly of polyaromatic and mesophase molec

Waste water treatment is an important issue globally and the introduction of activated carbons as a tool for the same has significantly enhanced the efficiency of many waste water treatment methods. T

This multi-authored book provides a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in porous CO2 capture materials, including ionic liquid–derived carbonaceous adsorbents, porous carbons, metal-org

Over the past twenty years, the field of carbon structures has been invigorated by the discovery of fullerenes and carbon nanotubes. These nano-structured carbons have attracted a tremendous interest

Following in the lineage of Adsorption by Carbons (Bottani & Tascon, 2008), this work explores current research within contemporary novel carbon adsorbents. Both basic and applied aspects are disc

A timely and authoritative treatise on the chemistry and diverse applications of chalcogenadiazoles — the five-membered rings containing two carbons, two nitrogens, and one chalcogen (an member

When many polymers are heated they transform directly into carbons, without passing through an intermediate liquid paste. Such carbons are termed polymetric carbons. Phenolic resins yield an isotropic impervious black glassy carbon which is hard enough to scratch window glass and has interesting electronic properties. polyacrylonitrile fibres yield carbon fibre with enormous stiffness and strength. Combinations of the two produce the strongest carbon material (carbon-fibre-reinforced carbon). Carbon-fibre-reinforced plastics are revolutionary low density-high-stiffness materials. This 1976 book brings together data from the authors' work to describe the manufacture of polymetric carbons. It provides a description of physical, mechanical and chemical properties which are related as closely as possible to the revealed structure. Emphasis is placed on the more interesting aspects, such as development of high-strength, high-stiffness material, the semi-conducting behaviour of intermediate

It is well known that solid carbons can be found in various guises with different forms of bulk phases (graphites, diamonds and carbynes) as well as more molecular forms (fullerenes,nanotubes and gra

Activated Carbon Compendium provides a critical in-depth analysis of recent research into activated carbons, focussing on their wide-ranging applications, and the complexity and flexibility in their m

石墨烯在材料領域扮演著越來越重要的角色，這方面的研究仍在深入進行。到目前為止，石墨烯的製備主要來自天然石墨(屬￿礦物)，而生物質碳材料作為來源更為廣泛的碳質材料，有望在替代石墨和製備各種新型合成材料方面發揮更大的作用。全書共分5章，第1章緒論，重點論述生物質碳材料的重要性並解釋了幾個基本概念；第2章討論木本、草本和水生植物纖維素碳材料的合成與改性；第3章介紹殼、莢、稈等纖維素碳材料的製備與應用；第4章論述與動物相關的生物質碳材料的製備與應用；第5章對全書進行總結與展望。
