Recent Progress in Mesostructured Materials is a selection of oral
and poster communications presented during the 5th International
Mesostructured Materials Symposium (5th IMMS2006). Authorized by
International Mesostructured Material Association (IMMA) and hosted
by the Fudan University, China. The scope of this involved field
covers both traditional inorganic mesostructured molecular sieves
and mesostructured materials like organic polymers, metals,
organic-inorganic nanocomposites, and ordered mesoporous carbons,
the hot topics in chemistry, crystallization, structure, liquid
crystalline, catalysis and materials science. This symposium
provided a forum for the presentation of the most novel development
and knowledge in the science and technology of mesostructured
materials. Papers presented cover a wide range of topics that
include synthesis, structure determination, characterisation,
modelling, and application in catalysis, adsorption, biochemistry
and advanced material sciences.
* This highly visual book is a must for readers looking to stay
up-to-date on mesostructure science
* A selection of more than 200 oral and poster papers, covering
research aspects/developing trends of mesostructured materials
* An important reference for those working in the material science,
catalysis and biotechnology fields
Nanostructured materials with tailored properties are regarded as a
fundamental element in the development of future science and
technology. Research is still ongoing into the nanosized
construction elements required to create functional solids. The
recently developed technique, nanocasting, has great advantage over
others in terms of the synthesis of special nanostructured
materials by the careful choice of suitable elements and
nanoengineering steps. This new book summarizes the recent
developments in nanocasting, including the principles of
nanocasting, syntheses of novel nanostructured materials,
characterization methods, detailed synthetic recipes and further
possible development in this area. The book focuses on the
synthesis of porous solids from the viewpoint of methodology and
introduces the science of nanocasting from fundamental principles
to their use in synthesis of various materials. It starts by
outlining the principles of nanocasting, requirements to the
templates and precursors and the tools needed to probe matter at
the nanoscale level. It describes how to synthesize nano structured
porous solids with defined characteristics and finally discusses
the functionalization and application of porous solids. Special
attention is given to new developments in this field and future
perspectives. A useful appendix covering the detailed synthetic
recipes of various templates including porous silica, porous carbon
and colloidal spheres is included which will be invaluable to
researchers wanting to follow and reproduce nanocast materials.
Topics covered in the book include: * inorganic chemistry * organic
chemistry * solution chemistry * sol-gel and interface science *
acid-base equilibria * electrochemistry * biochemistry * confined
synthesis The book gives readers not only an overview of
nanocasting technology, but also sufficient information and
knowledge for those wanting to prepare various nanostructured
materials without needing to search the available literature.
