ISBN: 0792323572 ISBN-13: 9780792323570 Publisher: Springer OUR PRICE: $313.49 Product Type: Hardcover - Other Formats Published: July 1994 Annotation: This volume reviews the tremendous amount of work that has been achieved in the field of intercalation compounds since the first volume on Intercalated Layered Materials' was published in this series in 1979. Leading experts in a number of important fields of current research present an up-to-date collection of contributions on materials, methods, models and applications. Various aspects such as new compounds, preparation and characterization techniques, reaction mechanisms, theory, structural and physical properties, are covered. Layered materials are most important, but one-dimensional and three-dimensional systems, polymers and related host structures are considered as well. The book has an interdisciplinary character and addresses itself to chemists, physicists and materials scientist interested in intercalation research. It is a reference work for all scientists and research students working in this field. |

| Publisher Description: The combination of solid materials of different structural dimensionality with atomic or molecular guest species via intercalation processes represents a unique and widely variable low temperature synthesis strategy for the design of solids with particular composition, structure and physical properties. In the last decade this field has experienced a rapid development and represents now an established specific domain of solid state research and materials science. Substantial progress has been made with respect to an understanding of the complex relationship between structure, bonding, physical properties and chemical reactivity since the first volume on the subject appeared in this series in 1979 (Intercalated Layered Materials, F. Levy, ed.). The purpose of this volume is to present a survey on progress and per- spectives based on the treatment of a series of major areas of activities in this field. By the very nature of its subject this monograph has an interdisciplinary character and addresses itself to chemists, physicists and materials scien- tists interested in intercalation research and related aspects such as design and characterization of complex materials, low temperature synthesis, solid state reaction mechanisms, electronic/ionic conductivity, control of electronic properties of solids with different structural dimensionality and application of intercalation systems. Several chapters have been devoted to specific groups of host lattices. |
