Metal Oxide-Carbon Hybrid Materials: Synthesis, Properties and
Applications reviews the advances in the fabrication and
application of metal oxide-carbon-based nanocomposite materials.
Their unique properties make them ideal materials for gas-sensing,
photonics, catalysis, opto-electronic, and energy-storage
applications. In the first section, the historical background to
the hybrid materials based on metal oxide-carbon and the hybridized
metal oxide composites is provided. It also highlights several
popular methods for the preparation of metal oxide-carbon
composites through solid-state or solution-phase reactions, and
extensively discusses the materials' properties. Fossil fuels and
renewable energy sources cannot meet the ever-increasing energy
demands of an industrialized and technology-driven global society.
Therefore, the role of metal oxide-carbon composites in energy
generation, hydrogen production, and storage devices, such as
rechargeable batteries and supercapacitors, is of extreme
importance. These problems are discussed in in the second section
of the book. Rapid industrialization has resulted in serious
environmental issues which in turn have caused serious health
problems that require the immediate attention of researchers. In
the third section, the use of metal oxide-carbon composites in
water purification, photodegradation of industrial contaminants,
and biomedical applications that can help to clean the environment
and provide better healthcare solutions is described. The final
section is devoted to the consideration of problems associated with
the development of sensors for various applications. Numerous
studies performed in this area have shown that the use of
composites can significantly improve the operating parameters of
such devices. Metal Oxide-Carbon Hybrid Materials: Synthesis,
Properties and Applications presents a comprehensive review of the
science related to metal oxide-carbon composites and how
researchers are utilizing these materials to provide solutions to a
large array of problems.
