Sol-Gel Science and Technology : Topics in Fundamental Research and Applications (4 Volume Set)

Sol-Gel Science and Technology covers optical, electronic and magnetic, chemical, mechanical, biomedical and biotechnological materials.

Concerning the microstructures, the sol-gel method applies to porous materials, dense materials like glasses and ceramics, organic-inorganic hybrids and nanocomposites.

The four volumes of this reference treat four areas that are timely, important and seeing great research activity: -Sol-gel prepared ferroelectrics and related materials. -Sol-gel processing of titanium oxides: photocatalyst and other applications. -Sol-gel prepared organic-inorganic hybrids and nanocomposites. -Sol-gel processing of porous materials: application to catalysts, enzymes, chemical analysis, sensors, and membranes.

The goal of these four volumes is to disseminate the recent research results published in recent issues of Journal of Sol-Gel Science and Technology, which is a unique journal devoted to Sol-Gel.
