Edited by the experts and pioneers in the field, this is the first
monograph to cover the topic, containing the must-have information
hitherto only scattered among journals.
Clearly divided into sections on preparation, characterization and
modeling, and applications, this is essential reading for chemists,
chromatographers, analytical chemists, biochemists and
biologists.
This book contains 99 of the papers that were presented at the 6th
in the series of Symposia on Characterization of Porous Solids held
in Alicante, Spain, May 2002. <br><br>Written by
leading international specialists in the subject, the contributions
represent an up-to-date and authoritative account of recent
developments around the world in the major methods used to
characterize porous solids. The book is a useful work of reference
for anyone interested in characterizing porous solids, such as
MCM-41 mesoporous materials, pillared clays, etc. Papers on pore
structure determination using gas adsorption feature strongly,
together with papers on small angle scattering methods, mercury
porosimetry, microcalorimetry, scanning probe microscopies, and
image analysis.
The Fifth International Symposium on the Characterisation of Porous
Solids (COPS-V) was held at Heidelberg, Germany, from May 30 to
June 2, 1999. About 220 participants from 25 countries enjoyed a
very successful meeting with 32 lectures and 155 poster
presentations.
The Symposium started with a highly stimulating lecture by Sir
John Meurig Thomas, Cambridge, highlighting the recent developments
in engineering of new catalysts. The following two full sessions
were devoted to theory, modelling and simulation which provide the
basis for the interpretation of pore structural data of adsorbents
and finely dispersed solids. Sessions 2 and 3 focused on the
advances in the synthesis and characterisation of highly ordered
inorganic adsorbents and carbons. Sessions 4 and 5 addressed
important questions with respect to the characterisation of porous
solids by sorption measurement and other related techniques.
The intensive three-day programme provided a stimulating forum for
the exchange of novel research findings, concepts, techniques and
materials which are collected in this volume.
