Von der hinteren Coverseite

Chemistry has a vital role to play in materials processing and in the development of new materials that can meet the changing needs of today's technology. This volume addresses both the basic underlying principles and the technological relevance of major topics in advanced materials chemistry, including:
* Electron transfer salt-based conductors, superconductors, and magnets
* Advanced polymeric materials-functional electroactive polymers
* Polymers in electronics
* Chemical vapor deposition
* An introduction to the nonlinear optical properties of organic materials
* Nanoparticles and nanostructural materials
* Nanoporous materials
* Molecular precursor routes to inorganic solids
* Layered transition metal oxides and chalcogenides
* Biomaterials

Bringing together a battery of important information in a single source, this stand-alone reference is an invaluable companion for aspiring and practicing organic, inorganic, solid-state, and surface chemists, as well as polymer and materials scientists.
