Synthesis of inorganic materials

Více o knize

This updated fourth edition offers a comprehensive introduction to inorganic materials, focusing on synthesis and modification techniques from a chemist's perspective. It covers the latest advancements in the field, including non-classical crystallization, precursor chemistry, citrate-gel and Pechini methods, freeze casting, breath figure templating, pseudomorphic transformations, and electrochemical methods. Organized by synthesis methods, the text includes chapters on solid-state reactions, gas-phase solid formation, solution and melt solid formation, inorganic polymer preparation, self-assembly, templating, and nanostructured material synthesis and modification. An extensive glossary aids in bridging chemistry, solid-state physics, and materials science, while each chapter features a curated list of books and review articles for further exploration. This edition provides students with a thorough overview of various synthesis methods applicable in both research and industry. It is accessible to chemists, physicists, and materials scientists alike, and is written by experienced authors employing an intuitive pedagogical approach. This resource is ideal for advanced undergraduate, master's, and graduate students in inorganic chemistry and materials science.
